A retired former colleague and mentor was clearing out her house and was threatening to bin this selection of mathematical gold… needless to say, a home has been found! (Another two boxes remain in my car boot!)

Enjoying listening to the vast back catalogue of the More of Less podcast over the summer on the dog walks. Lots of interesting short episodes which could generate classroom discussion. Anyone with an interest in mathematics (or anything number related!) should give it a try!

Really enjoyed attending the TayMaths Conference at Dundee University yesterday. Great opening address then onto an early years workshop with many practical ideas, Bryn and his journey through area, Tara Harper and her thinking puzzles, and concluded with a panel forum!

Wonderful competition and the photographs are stunning! The crazy places mathematics appears in our natural world still boggles my mind!

Loved this episode from one of my leadership heroes. Conducts himself with class and precision. The job Thomas Frank has done at Brentford FC has been remarkable. Legend.
