For Maths Week Scotland this year the school took part in the Maths Inside photography competition.\u00a0 Maths inside<\/em> is a photo competition open to everyone in Scotland and asks people to take photos and then comment on the maths that relates to those photos.<\/p>\n

There are three categories- \u00a0in the home<\/em>,\u00a0in <\/em>the <\/em>wild<\/em>, and\u00a0climate <\/em>change<\/em>.\u00a0 We have 2 children who have received a Second Level Commended Entry and certificate; Iona for her picture of the logs from chopped down trees on the Oa in the ‘Climate change’ category and Connor for his use of maths to estimate the number of words he read in a book in the ‘In the home’ category.\u00a0 We also have a highly commended at Early Level for Elana’s photo of the sea and questions How many fish are left in the sea?<\/p>\n

Even more exciting we have an overall winner at second level; Finlay for his photo of fishing boats in Port Ellen- he talked about the different maths you needed to be a fisherman in the ‘In the wild’ category. He gets a certificate and \u00a320 Amazon gift voucher.<\/p>\n

Even MORE exciting we have the Overall Category Winner for ‘Climate Change’; Evie for her photo of one a locally caught fish we filleted for our food topic. She wondered about the maths needed to calculate how many fish and other creatures are left in the seas and how we know if we are overfishing. She receives a \u00a350 Amazon voucher and certificate.<\/p>\n

We also were a highly commended school for the number and quality of our entries.<\/p>\n

Congratulations on your success in the maths inside photo competition! This really is an enormous achievement!<\/p>\n
