Twenty five ‘number crunchers’ from Year 7 and Year 8 at Cowley have won certificates in a UK junior maths challenge.
Lower school students recently participated in the UK Maths Trust Junior Mathematical Challenge and the results are brilliant for the school with 25 students taking away certificates.
In April, students from Cowley joined schools from up and down the country to compete in a nationwide maths challenge. The challenge is organised by UK Mathematics Trust and requires students to use mathematical reasoning and techniques to think-outside-the-box and solve sophisticated mathematical problems.
One student achieved the coveted Gold certificate, seven achieved Silver and 17 bagged bronze.
Year 7 student, Laura, achieved an impressive score and secured a Gold certificate. Laura has been invited to take part in the Junior Kangaroo Maths Competition which takes place on 9th June.
A massive thank you goes out to our Maths Department, for all the training and encouragement given to our competitors.
We also give thanks to the parents and carers who continue to support their daughter/son in their academic and extra-curricular endeavours.
