Leaderboard Challenge - Mental Maths Magic!

By Jo Besford | Director

Leaderboard Challenge Advert

Throughout 2021 we have been running different Mental Maths LeaderBoard Challenges for all of our learners. Learners get 2 or 3 mins (depending on their age) to complete as many Mental Maths sums online as they can. There is a Leaderboard for each grade, that shows the learners with the most correct sums in the time allowed! The top 5 learners for each grade are awarded a certificate and are featured on our website. Learners from any community have a equal opportunity to enter and shine.

This LeaderBoard Challenge has been a huge hit, with learners from many schools entering and competing against each other. Schools have been proudly celebrating when their learners make it to a Top 5 place!! 

Keegan, a Grade 6 learner from Idas Vallei Primary says, " I am very happy to achieve a Top 5 position for the Grade 6 learners in the Western Cape. I hope that this competition will be held again next year to give me the opportunity to climb the Leaderboard. Thank you all ".

Thanks to your generous support we have been able to run 7 different competitions in 2021.

We have had 7,776 entries by learners, all keen to show how they are achieving in their (Mental) Maths!  Your support is enabling learners to excel in Maths and be celebrated for their accomplishments.

Thank you very much!!
