World Maths Day in Room 5

25th Mar 2026
Room 5 kids had a great time working with IZAK 9, getting stuck into activities focused on converting fractions into percentages. They also completed challenges using a mix of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to figure out how to reach given numbers, and it was great to see them trying different strategies and explaining their thinking to each other. There was a real sense of teamwork throughout, with everyone helping out, sharing ideas and encouraging one another when things got tricky. It was a fun, hands-on way to build confidence with numbers while working together as a team. Another group worked on counting and exchanging money during a fun game of monopoly💭✨
