Eva Goldie (MIT) delivered my last ever Maths Society Lecture @wycombeabbey school (I'm moving on in 2024). This was attended by @OaksChian and @angela_tabiri and partner schools. Very proud how @WA__Maths has helped inspire talented girls like Eva over the years! 😢🥲🥲🥲

I am heartbroken by this news. Vicky was an absolute champion for Maths teaching- especially for girls. I loved welcoming her to @WA__Maths to hear her insights into the beauty of maths and problem solving. She was a lovely, lovely generous person- I will miss her a lot.
It is with huge sadness that we must announce that Vicky Neale, teacher, advocate, inspiration and much loved colleague, passed away yesterday after a long illness. Our condolences to her family, her friends and to all of you who have lost a champion for our wonderful subject.
Hi Twitter hive mind. I’m organising a team competition with local schools. Planning to use a UKMT TMC but does anyone have anything similar that isn’t in the public domain or which they most likely won’t have seen (eg international thing)?? @Ridermeister
Was wonderful talk- thank you for coming!! Also brilliant to welcome pupils from @CressexCSchool and @wallingford4140 for the evening. If you are a maths teacher in the local area who is interested in similar events then get in touch.
Had an amazing time yesterday evening @wycombeabbey . Thank you @davidjcvaccaro for inviting me. Good to virtually see @angela_tabiri. Brilliant questions by the students. My favourite part of doing mathematics is THE BATTLE!!! @Mathematical_A

A real pleasure to come in @WPolyBoys today. What an amazing school 😊 If other schools are interested in MESME or building a partnership with @wycombeabbey then let me know. I also work closely with @WPolyBoys to support their STEM applicants especially for Oxbridge.
This morning Year 7 & 8 students from WPSfB & WPSfG participated in a new exciting enrichment programme – MESME Maths Circle. Dr D Vaccaro led the first session on enhancing mathematical ability. Read the full article here: woolwichpoly.co.uk/news/?pid=28&n… @davidjcvaccaro
