World Maths Day!

Wednesday 3rd March saw the whole school throwing its collective mental muscle behind World Maths Day.

This is a truly amazing world-wide competition with children from all parts of the globe competing against each other in a series of graded mental maths challenges.

Everybody had great fun throughout the day and there were some great results from many of our pupils.

If you look carefully you can even see Mr Allan, School Director, having a go!

The day was made possible by the re-launch of our Computer Suite which handled the work load really well.

Our thanks go to Mrs Letchford who organised and set up the whole day.

Special congratulations go to the following pupils:
