Recently, four of our Year 5 pupils had the opportunity to compete in Christ Hospital’s Maths Challenge. Every year Christ’s Hospital hosts a Maths Challenge at the Guildhall in London for 30-35 London Primary Schools. Each school enters teams who take part in various problem solving challenges. Prizes are awarded at the end of the challenge and every pupil gets a certificate of participation to take away. The event aims to develop problem solving skills and encourage a love of maths; additionally, pupils work as a team, developing their communication skills. The competition hosts around 140 – 150 pupils annually. Our pupils were selected for their continued effort and perseverance that they put into Maths and they represented our school phenomenally.
Thank you to Christ’s Hospital School for organising and inviting St Joseph’s to participate.
