Wow! What a fabulous Mathathon we had this year.

All together our children brought in over $19000 – which all goes towards maths at Matipo. This will include new maths manipulatives, classroom equipment and Mathetics subscriptions.

And… the best thing! This cost the school nothing, as this year all of our prizes were donated!!

D’Ani in Room 7 collected over $640 in sponsorship money – earning himself a special prize of some stationery, Toy World voucher, Mr Illingsworth vouchers, books and more! Amazing work D’Ani!

The classroom that brought in the most money from each team earned themselves a pizza lunch – congratulations to:

Ako  – Room 2 – $1163

Taonga – Room 7 – $1428

Mana – Room 27 – $1296

Aroha – Room 17 – $1080

We also had a special prize draw for every child who brought in over $100 in sponsorship money. The winners and their chosen prizes were:

Harper McLeod – Room 12 – Wireless Skullcandy Headphones

Noah Pirnia – Room 16 – Fitbit

Jack Oliver – Room 24 – Cupboard Love Cake

Bella Dixon – Room 2 – Instax Camera

Olivia Cullum – Room 23 – Toy World Voucher

Arlo Manning – Room 6 – Remote Control Helicopter
