On Friday, eight teams of students from Years 5 to 8 took part in an exciting Cross-Trust Maths Challenge from Bushey Meads School, Little Reddings School and Hartsbourne School. The event brought together pupils from across the Trust to test their mathematical thinking, teamwork and problem-solving skills in a series of fun and engaging activities.

Teams competed in a variety of rounds, including estimation challenges, relay maths problems, escape room tasks and the solving of magic squares, with points awarded throughout the morning. Students worked collaboratively, demonstrating resilience, communication and creativity as they tackled each challenge.

The atmosphere was full of enthusiasm and friendly competition, with pupils supporting one another and enjoying the opportunity to compete with students from different year groups. The event was a fantastic celebration of mathematics and showcased the talents and determination of all those involved.

Congratulations to everyone who took part and represented their schools so positively. It was a wonderful morning of mathematical challenge and teamwork. A particular well done to our challenge winners; Albert, Rian, Olivia, Bertie, Natasha and Quesianah.
