Mathematics

Our approach to teaching Mathematics here at Hazlegrove is based on a bias towards child-centred education. We believe that every child is different and needs to be taught and stimulated in a different way.

Mathematical Learning Adventures

We are passionate about developing practical and effective problem solving skills in the maths department and constantly looking for new and exciting ways  to emphasize the real world applications and the relevance of  the techniques the children are learning. There are so many ways in which we take maths outside of the classroom too! Highlights of the academic year in the Maths Department include 'Thinking Outside the Box' project week for the whole school, Lower and Middle School children take part in Maths Activity Mornings, Taskmaster Maths Challenges for Years 3-8, the famous inter-house Maths Puzzle Board not to mention the regular Friday Celebration Assembly Maths Puzzle which has the whole school guessing, including the staff!

Of course not every child finds maths easy but we believe that with the right support  and encouragement every children can exceed their own expectations, realise their potential and have a great deal of fun along the way.
