Anyone for maths?
From 1st October the maths group is having a change of emphasis, and the new direction may encourage more of you to join!

Some of the topics we have tackled have been quite technically demanding so the plan is to take ‘elementary’ problem solving as our theme. This meaning of elementary needs clarifying it does not mean trivial so you should get real satisfaction from tackling the problems.

The technical knowledge required will not go beyond the yearly years of secondary school and the emphasis will be more on logical thinking and finding significant problem solving strategies. Some of the problems can be tackled by 10-year-olds but moving ahead a few years can add satisfaction and enjoyment.

Our meetings are monthly usually on the second Friday morning of the Month except the next one on October 2 are you interested? Give me a ring on:- 01437 4546234 or 07340507241. John Baylis.

If you’d like to learn more, suggest a topic, share a favourite puzzle, or simply join us, just give me a call. We'd love to welcome you to the group!
