Congratulations and well done to all the children from 1st, 2nd and 3rd Class who made it to the final of the annual Maths Week Tables Championship. The fifteen finalists showed nerves of steel when they competed in front of an enthralled audence, and it took a number of rounds to whittle the fifteen down to the final three. In 1st place we had Alistair, with Alex in 2nd place and Nicoleta in 3rd, all deserving winners.
Senior Maths Championship, took place today as part of Maths Week. Pupils from the senior classes: Mr Gallagher, Mr Smyth and Ms Turley Classes took part.
Well done to all who took part and to our winners!
On Wednesday St. Gabriel’s held their largest event in the Maths Week 2014 calender with a whole school Maths Games extravaganza! The children from Junior Infants to Sixth Class gathered in the P.E. Hall and played different games covering all strands of the Maths curriculum. Small groups played each game for 10 minutes with our parent helpers getting involved and then rotated so that we could try all the games.
Thank you again to all the parents who came along and helped to make Maths Week 2014 an enjoyable learning experience.
