TC Junior School 'Mystery of the Mathematical Menace'

In anticipation of our 2024 Father's Day celebrations, the TC Junior School invites JS students and dads/father figures (or other parent/guardian, if fathers are not available) to participate in an exciting maths-based event: the "Mystery of the Mathematical Menace"! This free event is hosted by Scitech, and proudly supported by Chevron.

This is a fun, interactive workshop that engages participants in mathematical puzzles, with an emphasis on problem-solving, collaboration and creativity. Come along to enjoy an exciting afternoon of maths activities, and work with your child to solve maths puzzles, gather clues, and catch the culprit! It can take anywhere from 20-80 minutes to solve all the problems; it is ideal that you arrive promptly at the beginning of the session as the Scitech Facilitator will 'set the scene'.

Participants will receive some take-home materials, including:

• An answer booklet and pencil, to record your clues;
• A booklet of ideas on how to have everyday conversations about maths, with accompanying playing cards and dice; and,
• A special prize for all participating students who solve the mystery and catch the culprit!

Places are strictly limited for this event, so get in quick to avoid missing out.
