The Victorian Challenge and Enrichment Series: Maths Games Days

MAV was excited to run maths games days delivered across the state as part of The Victorian Challenge and Enrichment Series.

Please note: VCES Games Days are funded Victorian Department of Education and Training, and are only available to government schools in Victoria.

MAV delivered a series of Mathematics Games days for students from Yr 5 to 10, across the state, in metropolitan and regional schools.

Each region hosted a separate Yr 5/6, 7/8 and 9/10 event, challenging high ability students in a fun, challenging, collaborative and competitive mathematics-based games day.

Teams of students competde for a variety of prizes including individual prizes for creativity, contribution to group work, and lucky door prizes. Lateral thinking wins the day!

A Maths Games Day is an opportunity for students to:

• apply and develop their mathematical talents and thinking skills in a setting where Maths is regarded as fun and worthwhile;
• work with like-minded high ability students from a diverse range of schools;
• participate in mathematical activities and games without the usual classroom pressures;
• work effectively in teams and develop strategies to work collaboratively to solve problems;
• enhance their problem-solving skills;
• get excited about mathematics, whilst being rewarded through prizes and awards.
