Our final year 9 maths masterclass happened at University of Liverpool 16-19 Maths School - Sixth Form .

10 students from Co-op Academy Bebington ventured into the centre of Liverpool to take part in a masterclass.

They explored mathematical puzzles, university courses and mathematical careers. Digging deep into engineering, finding problems and designing solutions as well as exploring.

After a tasty lunch of pizza provided by the Maths school, they had a tour of the campus. It showed the students where maths could take them and how studying STEM subjects can open many opportunities for their future.

It was fantastic to see Kim Leadbeater MBE visiting the breakfast club at Smithies Moor this week.
