On Tuesday 1st March, we will be celebrating World Maths Day at Parkhead. This is an online mental arithmetic competition in which children compete in live games against other children from across the world.

All children from Years 1 to 6 will receive a username and password which can be used to access the site (www.worldmathsday.com) both at school and at home. The children can practise straight away but the scores will only count for the competition on World Maths Day which runs from 11am on 28th Feb to 11am on 2nd March (taking into account world time differences).

Please encourage your children to practice at home. It is an excellent way for them to improve their mental calculation skills while also having fun!
