Maths Week Ireland starts on the 11th October – 19th October 2025.
Maths Week Ireland is an all-island initiative promoting positive attitudes towards maths and highlighting the importance of maths in our lives since 2006. This annual festival is a collaborative partnership of organisations including all the universities, institutes of technology, professional bodies, visitor centres and more.
Maths Week is an important way to help learners, of all ages, enjoy maths and to highlight the creativity of the subject.” Aoibhinn Ní Shúilleabháin,
In our school this week we took part in lots of activities:
- Money Sense Games
- Maths Trails
- Online activities and games
- In school activities
- Daily shows on MathsweekTV
- Maths Eyes Competition
- Quizzes and Challenges
- Target Boards
- Puzzles in the Park
Our message to parents and children is that everyone can do well at maths. Yes, it is a challenging subject and can be difficult but, like any challenge, it can be overcome with effort and will bring rewards.

On Friday, 5th class set out a maths trail for the Junior Infants outside of our school. The Juniors were brought around by the 5th class girls and encouraged to use their ‘Maths Eyes’ to solve some of the questions on the trail! Please see some pictures below.
