Maths Circles
Social club for maths-loving kids:
These are weekly problem-solving sessions during term time on extracurricular maths for 11-16 year olds. Our tutors are talented university maths students (at Glasgow and St. Andrews)
The Maths Circles programme is not a course with a beginning and an end, but an ongoing social activity that can be attended for many years to come.
Topics that we've covered include Liars & Truth-Tellers, Conway's Game of Life and the pigeonhole principle.
