National Pi Day
In celebration of National Pi Day, PHSG students were challenged by our Maths captains to learn pi and attend a recital; remembering as many decimal places as possible of pi.
The efforts of those that entered was outstanding with first, second and third place being awarded to students who recited 309, 109 and 99 decimal places respectively! Our students clearly have great memories and a passion for the subject of Mathematics. The above image is Megan our winner.
