Numeracy Week: Maths Games Day Excursions

The aim of this program is to challenge high ability students in a fun, challenging, collaborative and competitive Maths-based games day. Our students competed for a variety of prizes including individual prizes for creativity, contribution to group work, and lucky door prizes.

Annual Maths Games Day is an opportunity for students to:

• apply and develop their mathematical talents and thinking skills in a setting where Maths is regarded as fun and worthwhile;
• work with like-minded high ability students from a diverse range of schools;
• participate in mathematical activities and games without the usual classroom pressures;
• work effectively in teams and develop strategies to work collaboratively to solve problems;
• enhance their problem-solving skills;
• get excited about mathematics, whilst being rewarded through prizes and awards.

Well done to all participating students!
