Maths Merry-go-Round

After the morning of Maths, organised by Mrs. Childs and run with the help of members of the Maths department, children wrote notes of thanks:

‘I had a terrific time on Thursday taking part in the Maths Merry-go-Round. I loved trying to complete all the puzzling rounds. It was a great opportunity to improve my Maths and learn together with other people. It was an all-round brilliant morning which I think was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone.’

(Catriona Thomson)

‘I thought each round of the Merry-go-Round contained many good mathematical questions. My favourite was the relay as it was very exciting! Thank you for organising this for us; it was a great experience!’

(Cameron Fisken)

‘The Maths Merry-go-Round has been the highlight of my mathematical year so far. It was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed it. It has been a privilege to take part in the competition and I would like to thank the Maths department for organising it.’

(Scott Gillen)

‘I’m glad you came last Thursday as it woke up the morning. Thank you for organising the Maths Merry-go-Round. There were a lot of challenges and my team struggled to answer a few of them. That’s why we didn’t do that well! I think the cubes were the hardest challenge and no-one from my team finished a single cube.’

(Neil Grant)

‘I am very grateful for all your preparation for the Maths Merry-go-Round. It was nice to see Maths expressed in a fun and exciting way.’
