2019 Mathématiques sans frontières

On Tuesday 5th March, S5 pupils took part in the annual maths/modern languages competition ‘Mathématiques sans Frontières’, run this year by the University of the West of Scotland. They spent an hour and a half solving mathematical puzzles, one of which had to be answered in a foreign language. There was, of course, a variety of international food on hand to help the brains work!

The questions can be found here, for anyone who would like to see how tricky they were: MSF_2019_UK

2F2 Paris Posters

Members of class 2F2 researched an aspect of Paris each, and produced a poster of it.  The groups then judged which were best, and here are the winners!  Well done all of you.
