Granton take Silver at the Dunraven Maths Challenge!

Our talented young Y6 mathematicians had a fantastic afternoon taking part in the annual Dunraven Maths Challenge on Tuesday 23rd June, where having come in the top three the last two years, we were keen to maintain our reputation!

The challenge saw pupils from 27 schools competing in teams on some very challenging mathematics problems set by the UK Mathematics Trust in three exciting and equally challenging rounds of Maths including: problem solving, a logic puzzle and the Maths relay that had everybody running around at the end!

Once the scores has been counted and verified, we were thrilled to hear that we had taken Silver, and had come 2nd out of 27 schools!  Well Done to Sudbourne who came first!

We had great fun and really enjoyed meeting the welcoming Year 9 and Year 12 pupils who showed us around.  We thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon.  

Third year in the top three!  Roll on 2016!
