Maths Week 2024

Maths Week is always a very special occasion here in Scoil Mhuire, and this year - as well as going on Maths Trails in the local environment and participating in classroom-based problem-solving activities - all of our pupils from 3rd to 6th Class had the opportunity to engage in a very special Maths Week Challenge. 

The mission, set by none other than Albus Dumbledore himself, was to find the missing Sorting Hat in 20 minutes or less. Boys showed great reasoning skills, great numerical skill, and great logic in solving the various puzzles encountered. 

We also invited our friends on the Student Councils of St.Vincent de Paul Senior School and St. Joseph's to put their mathematical skills to the test! 

This was a particularly challenging series of puzzles, so a massive congratulations to all of the groups that successfully retrieved the hat!
