‘Sum’mer camp to multiply new maths lovers

It should be a ‘sum’mer to remember for maths lovers, with a mathlete summer camp taking place before students head back to school.

The Connemara Maths Academy, based in Kylemore Abbey in the heart of Connemara, aims to add to maths fans experience through an innovative approach to the teaching of a subject that can still cause fear in many students.

“Our aim is to facilitate the learning of maths through discovery and the use of creative technologies,” said the academy’s director, Aengus O’Connor.
