World Champions – P5 & P6 Mathletics Success

11th May 2026
Congratulations to our fantastic P5 and P6 class, who have achieved an outstanding and truly remarkable result by becoming World Champions in Mathletics!
Over the period from Monday 27th April to Friday 14th May, the boys and girls demonstrated exceptional dedication, determination and teamwork. They initially set themselves the goal of becoming the top-ranked class in the UK, and after successfully reaching this milestone, they went on to challenge themselves further on the world stage—achieving incredible success.
This fantastic achievement was the result of:

Consistent effort both in school and at home
A commitment from every pupil to give their very best
A strong sense of motivation, teamwork and perseverance

Every pupil played an important role, and it was clear to see the effort and enthusiasm that went into reaching this milestone.
To make this success even more impressive:

Some pupils achieved Number 1 individual rankings
Many others placed within the Top 100 globally

As a well-earned treat, the pupils celebrated their success on Friday afternoon by enjoying ice lollies and taking part in a fun game of Capture the Flag in the glorious sunshine—a perfect way to mark such a fantastic achievement together.
This is a truly exceptional accomplishment and a testament to the talent, hard work and determination within our school.
Well done to all the boys and girls—we are extremely proud of you!
