Living Maths travels to Greece

Today I taught a fun class in Athens, Greece at the Winners School.  We had a small class of High School students that were dessed nice and warm - while I sat enjoying 30C temperatures here in Cape Town ;-)  The students showed enthusiasm and came up with some lovely solutions to some of my mind bending teasers.  Many thanks to Effie Kyrikakis, the Director of studies at the school for setting up the class.  I look forward to interacting with more of her students very soon. I am also waiting for a very cool Baklava recipe ;-) After watching what the Greek children get to eat for lunch I knew that this would be an interesting class to teach!

Welcome to 2022

 A new year quickly follows on from the challenges of 2021.   These challenges are often unpredictable (like new variants) and responses by various governments (levels of lockdown and how much travel is permitted).  It sadly affects education in ways that are incredibly challenging to measure.  The goal is to make sure that we are kind to those around us and we must make every effort to work collectively to bring about positive change for all. Visit our brand new website on www.livingmaths.com and you will see how we have evolved to meet the new challenges and offer innovative solutions. We look forward to working with you.
