Family Math Night at Athlone



Are you looking for ways to have fun with your family and learn math at the same time?

Please join us on Tuesday, January 26th (5:30 to 7:30 pm) for a night of math games and activities that you can use at home with the whole family. There will be many stations to teach you how to use a deck of cards, dice, dominoes and other things you may have around the house.

The evening will begin at 5:30pm and it is a come-and-go event.

Pizza will be served by the Parent Council until 6:45pm (there will be drinks to purchase as well) and then there will be Family Bingo at 7:00pm with the chance to win some fun prizes.

If you are planning to attend please fill out the form that was sent home with your child, indicating how many members of your family there will be that evening.

Hope to see you there!
