Maths Week   15th - 23rd October 2016

This week we were celebrating Maths week and the children had lots of fun with different maths activities. The junior classes all went on a maths trail around the school. Each class were also given a maths problem to solve and had to estimate how many marbles were in a jar.

Can you guess how many marbles are in the jar?

The Senior School were busy working with Magnahigh and estimating. Magnahigh is a game based learning site where students learn maths via purpose built casual games that balance fun and learning. Groups of children from each class worked online in order to accumulate points and the class level with the most points won a prize. 
Well done to
Ms Tapper's Third Class,
Mr Downes' Fourth Class,
Mr Mc Ardles' Fifth Class
Ms Keane's Sixth Class. 
The overall winner was Ms Keane's Sixth class.
