An event held yesterday proved that maths can be fun if approached in the right way. A SATRO team visited St Joseph's Primary School in Epsom to deliver the Fun Maths workshop to KS2 pupils. Some 165 pupils had the opportunity to work in pairs and use their mathematical skills to solve a range of puzzles. As one teacher commented: “The wonderful SATRO staff knew how to communicate with the children and not just give them the answer – they really supported them."
The pupils felt more confident at the end of the workshops and the general buzz of excitement was captured by one pupil who said “That they didn’t just say “no” when you got it wrong they helped you know what you did wrong.”
