End of term activities
Each year group had the challenge of ‘The Big Quiz’. There were five rounds varying from memorising as many digits of the number “Pi”, solving equations, mathematical dingbats
to a challenge to estimate the total of all the ages of the teachers in the Maths department. (The answer to the last question, for those interested, is 343 for Years 10 and
8, and 344 for Years 9 and 7).
