On Tuesday 31st October, four Year 6 pupils spent the afternoon taking part in the Maths Challenge held at St. Edwards School, Oxford. It was a brilliant afternoon with lots of challenging Maths.

The challenge tested their problem solving, and their running, as they frequently sprinted up and down the hall to get their work marked! The challenge consisted of three different rounds: 鈥楩inding Values鈥�, where pupils had to find the value of letters using hints provided. The second round was 鈥楥ountdown鈥�, where they had to use the four operations and set numbers to make the desired total. To finish was 鈥楾he Big Event鈥�, which involved them working through a variety of problems.听

76 pairs represented nearly 40 schools so the competition was tough. These were split into two halves: 1 and 2.听
