Gifted & Talented at Seaton House School

below is an article from attain magazine Problem Solving at Seaton House School - Gifted and Talented mathematicians come together at Seaton House School. If two heads are better than one, then three schools combing to solve problems has to be a recipe for success. Seaton House School played host to gifted and talented young mathematicians from The Avenue School, Belmont and Barrow Hedges Primary School, Carshalton, for an afternoon of ‘thinking outside the box’ problem solving. A range of mathematical conundrums were provided by The Problem Solving Company whose specially tailored workshops encourage children to work together. Solving these mathematical dilemmas required open discussion, reasoning and evaluation skills, which all combine to create successful teamwork. At the end of the afternoon, parents from all three schools were invited to see how well their children had co-operated together and benefited from the skills and strengths of each other to reach a common goal. Headmistress, Mrs Virginia Rickus, commented “This was the first time we had run such a workshop and invited other schools in the area to join us. It was a terrific afternoon and wonderful to see children who were at first strangers to each other, join together and use their combined skills to form cohesive and successful teams.”
