University of Edinburgh School of Mathematics Event
Three to four times a year the University of Edinburgh runs an event called the (in-person) "Edinburgh Maths Circle": a free drop-in session where children aged from 5 to 16 enjoy learning mathematics with NRICH problems and other hands-on mathematical activities.
During this half day workshop, teachers and educators will be given an introduction to what a Maths Circle is, advice on how to run one in their school/community, and what are the main issues to be aware of.
Participants will then have a chance to see a Maths Circle in action, have a look at how visitors engage with the activities, and talk to visitors.
All participants who attend the workshop will have the the opportunity to borrow some of the resources and run a Maths Circle in their classes and/or communities.

We have enjoyed seeing what everyone got up to for Maths Week Scotland this year, in particular the different ways everyone was inspired by this year's theme of 'Wild Maths'. We've picked out a few highlights to share.
For Scottish Museums Day (3 October) we’ve rounded up some of our favourite activities from museums from across the country, from this year's Maths Week Scotland.
