Duncanrig STEM & Numeracy

Congratulations to Dougie, Zain, Ruairi & Euan for finishing in first place at the SLC Enterprising Maths Challenge today! #TeamDuncanrig @DuncanrigScndry

Congratulations to our winning group (presented with £15 vouchers each) who produced a fabulous promotional video & performed strongly on every task throughout the day 🏆 All pupils were really engaged & we can’t wait to run it again next year!

They also got a visit from a real-life Tax Accountant & heard about pathways into the job. Lots of fabulous questions asked too! We also got a break for some pizza 🍕 before their final challenge: create a 60-second promotion video encouraging young people into Finance!

Brilliant day with our S3 Accounts classes. @DSS_BusEd you’ve definitely got some future Accountants in your midst! ⭐️

A game of Countdown in Mr Callaghans class… lots of people getting to the final number in lots of different ways which was fabulous!

Our @STEM egg-drop challenge was a success with all 4 teams able to drop the egg 2m without it breaking 👏 The 2nd floor balcony may have been a step to far.. but it was great fun! 🫳🥚😁
