Some of our classes have been taking part in Maths 4 Fun recently with some of the members of our Parents Association. We’ve been enjoying games and activities to improve our Maths skills every Thursday. A big thanks to all of the Parents Association for all of their hard work – we’ve had great fun!

Johnny and Lorcan tried to make their shapes quicker than everyone else! We loved our Maths For Fun and can’t wait for the next one!
