pure mathematicians just love to try unsolved problems - they love a challenge.

Math movie with music.wmvThe Mathematics Department nurtures our students to be effective and creative problem solvers through the application of Mathematical knowledge and skills.
We adopt game-based pedagogy that engages our students actively to explore key mathematical concepts.
Key programmes
COLLABORATIVE LEARNING
We use traditional and modern Sudoku to strengthen our students' logical and analytical thinking.
We also create location-based mathematical trails to encourage collaborative learning and develop our students’ reasoning, solving and communication competencies.
TEAMWORK IN SOLVING ALGEBRA
Using games, we enthuse our students in manipulating algebraic expressions.
Lost in Algewoods and Alge-Miner are games designed by our teachers to promote students' interest in algebra through strategic thinking and collaborative learning.
achievements
Our young mathematicians are given opportunities to grow, evolve and advance. One such opportunity is the annual Singapore Mathematical Olympiad (SMO). Our teachers provide training and guidance to sharpen their mathematical thinking and strengthen their technical ability to solve unconventional mathematical problems.
