The Maths Society Share their Fountain of Knowledge and Fountain of Chocolate with Years 7 and 8

In preparation for the Junior Maths Challenge in April, members of the Maths Society are running how-to-solve-it sessions every week for middle school girls. Sharing our favourite techniques to solve the challenges quickly and efficiently is very enjoyable for the sixth form and hopefully very useful for girls.

​This week, we were delighted to see 25 enthusiastic girls turn up to the session, and their insight and ingenuity impressed us all! Letting them indulge in the maths society chocolate fountain is therefore a perfect way to reward them for their hard work and a sweet way of finishing off!

A notice from Kureha, Saachi and Mengyao in the Maths Society. 

Hey there middle school you better listen to this
It’s Maths Soc news that will fill you with bliss.
In 223 every Wednesday, first half of lunch
It’s how-to-solve it sessions with the loveliest bunch
For year 7 and 8 of ALL maths abilities
To develop your Junior Maths Challenge capabilities
Getting Bronze, Silver, Gold is really very easy  
If you use all our tricks from the proper to the sleazy.

So bring a pen and a friend and be brave, don’t be shy
And this April we’ll beat the school’s all-time high
Of 90% getting medals because
We’ve got a chocolate fountain and some jokes about cos.
223. Every Wednesday, during lunch (the first half)
For some maths and some food, and a bit of a ​laugh. ​
