Year 5 Take Part in Maths Fest 2026

What a day! Our Year 5s had an absolute blast at the Northern Ireland Maths Fest 2026. We were so lucky to be a presenting school, and our stall was a total hit with the crowds.

The kids did a brilliant job teaching 'Ancient Egyptian' long multiplication and showing off a maths game they built themselves—complete with a working circuit that lit up for correct answers! It was so cool to see them using what they’ve learned about electricity in such a creative way. We’re incredibly proud of how confidently they spoke; many people couldn't believe they were only in Year 5! Well done, everyone!
