On Tuesday 6 June, staff of St Emilie’s, and Salvado College, joined together to learn from world renowned mathematical expert, Dr Paul Swan. The focus of the day was assisting children to acquire and successfully apply, important mathematical knowledge and skills, now and into the future.
Dr Swan suggested there are a number of ways parents can support their child in Mathematics. These included learning basic facts such as ‘Friends of Ten’ and ‘Times Tables’, telling the time, and providing real life experiences with money.
