On Wednesday this week, Year 5 did us a huge favour and were mathematical guinea pigs for the afternoon. They took part in a trial version of a new maths competition EUREKA @ NLCS. The girls worked in teams of 4. After taking part in some activities in the hall, they set off on a treasure hunt around the school. Armed with maps and co-ordinates, they had to find their allocated station and complete a maths puzzle within a ten minute time frame before being given another set of co-ordinates to continue their trail. At the end of the event the winners were announced with Lettie, Kayla, Sofia, Ella coming second and Lily, Misha, Amy and Mary coming first.
Many thanks to the many teachers from both the Junior and Senior School who volunteered to man the stations and help run this event. We hope the Y5s enjoyed their maths with a twist!
