Pi Day is celebrated on 14th March around the world and Calderhead High School enjoyed some fun ‘pi’ activities.
Pi (Greek letter “π”) is the symbol used in mathematics to represent the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter — which is approximately 3.14159. The BBC produced a great guide to pi (t.co/wvwpvzl4vP).
Calderhead now has its very own Credit Union which will run in conjunction with Newmains Credit Union. All first and second years have been invited to open up a junior account and this will extend on to S3-S6 in the coming weeks. We have 5 senior pupils who have been trained by Newmains Credit Union and will run the school credit union every Tuesday at lunch time in the social area.
