Today the members of 24 Club took part in an exhilarating and nerve racking tournament to select the squad who will represent the school at the Southwark Tournament. The children have been honing their skills with their Maths’ Volunteers, from PWC (Price Waterhouse Coopers), on Wednesday and Thursday lunchtimes and today they tested them in a competitive arena.

The children were split in to teams of three and rotated from table to table collecting points for both themselves and the team. Look at the photos and see how many cards you can solve. For each card you need to use all the numbers, any of the four operations and make a total of 24. The first person to solve it gets the points. The number of dots in the corner shows how many points each card is worth – 3 being the most challenging.
Well done to the individual winners and to the winning team. Watch this space to see who is selected to represent the school at the tournament in June. A big thank you goes to Mrs Taylor who ran the event and to the Volunteers for PWC for umpiring mathematical decisions and presenting the certificates.
