Mathex

On the 22nd September we had our annual Mathex competition where 23 schools send their top maths team to compete in a problem solving competition.

There are four students in each group, and one of those students is the runner who retrieves the maths question from the panel, races back to the group and once the problem is solved, races back to the panel to check if they have it correct.   After half and hour the team with the most correct answers wins.

Congratulations to Sunnyhills who came second place.

Market Day at Sunnyhills

Wednesday 23 September we had our market day which was run by our senior school students.  Students had worked hard to create things to sell and learnt a lot about production processes, managing staff and profit and loss!!   Thanks to all the staff and children involved in helping make this a success.
