Maths Empowering Girls Day
The speech that stuck in my head the most was from Cristy, from the Royal Australian Navy. It gave me a sense to step outside my comfort zone and try something new. It reminded me to persevere through and that some memories and experiences you just can’t buy. Quote of the day … ‘Be Brave, not Perfect’. ~ Year 9 Student
The annual Maths Empowering Girls day enables Year 9 girls to recognise the amazing opportunities available from studying higher level maths.
Join us on Tuesday 29 June 2021 at Curtin University for a day designed to help girls appreciate the value of maths and mathematical thinking.
This special event, a collaboration of The Mathematical Association of Western Australia with Curtin’s School of Education and Professional Learning Hub for Educators, offers an exciting program of inspirational speakers and maths activities.
Participants will meet professionals in mathematics and related disciplines who are passionate about its study and application. They will also meet hundreds of like-minded students from across Perth.
This event created an inspirational spark for many students and reinforced the message provided at school where student need to aim for their personal best. ~ Teacher
