Maths
Camp
The inaugural Maths Camp recently took place from 6th – 8th March. More than 30 S3 and S4 pupils enjoyed a mixture of outdoor activities and maths sessions. By all accounts the girls seemed to out perform the boys at archery but were sorely outnumbered in the karaoke! The weather conditions proved fantastic for snowball fights but were not so appreciated by those facing the challenge of the pole climb.
The teachers involved (Ms Wilson, Ms Harcourt, Ms Jamieson, Mr Stewart) were particularly impressed by the pupils’ motivation to undertake a maths treasure hunt on a Friday night and the lack of grumbles whilst studying maths on a Sunday morning! All in all, the pupils were enthusiastic and appreciative of the opportunity for supported study. We await the exam results with baited breath!
