Wellington Maths Challenge

|

On 22nd May Joel, Jim, Joe and Alex went to Wellington College for a maths challenge with Mr Berry. As soon as we got there we admired the grandeur of the school. We were split up into two teams, Joel and Jim , and Joe and Alex. We were told to go round 10 tables in turn where we were set five challenges in a time limit. There were various kinds of challenges including mazes, dominoes and shopping lists. I thought the mazes were best. Once we had all finished we were told to choose five lucky numbers. From first to last they asked each team what number they chose from 1-100 and saw if they got one of the lucky numbers. Unfortunately none of us got any of the lucky numbers. We now know that Joel and Jim were 9th out of 60, but Joe and Alex didn't do quite so well. All in all I think it was a great day out.
