THE MATHS TASK CENTRE

The West Heidelberg Maths Task Centre was established 16 years ago as only the third such resource in Australia. While there have been many imitators since, few have the resources and expertise that we have built up.

All of our Year 7 and 8 classes visit once per week and our feeder primary schools either visit, or have our co-ordinator, Mary Jackman, bring tasks to them. The tasks cover a range of mathematical skills and are self-contained. Students generally work in pairs to complete the task and are strongly encouraged to discuss their strategies.
