We would like to expand CalcEX far and wide - all across New Zealand if possible!

If you offer to be a CalcEX venue, what are you letting yourself in for?
If you offer to be a CalcEX venue, what are you letting yourself in for?
Hopefully not too much!
We will provide the questions and answers, ready to print.
To run Calcex at your school, you need an indoor space which will hold:
- around 16 groups of 4 students, each at a desk
- 8+ teachers at marker desks
- some spectators
- room for runners to run a fixed distance from their desk to their marker and back (about 10-15 metres?)
- a scoreboard (written on a whiteboard works fine)
The venue coordinator (or someone they delegate) needs to:
- decide on a time for the event to run at your school
- book furniture and spaces as needed through their school systems
- put up signs or provide guides to the event location from the school entrance
- print out the questions and answers and keep them confidential (<100 sheets of printing)
- cut the questions down into A6 sheets and staple
- make any judgement calls on rule-breaking
- announce the winners
- record full results for nationwide tabulation and return to event coordinator
