CODE Maths Hub

@codemathshub.bsky.social

Working across our Hub region to promote the best in maths education, supported by the NCETM. We work in Cornwall, Plymouth, South West Devon, Teignbridge and Torbay.

Instead of #FunFactFriday, we’re marking Pi Approximation Day! Why? Most of us celebrate π on March 14 (3/14), but July 22 (22/7) is a famous fractional estimate of pi. Divide 22 by 7 and you get 3.142857…, which is surprisingly close to π (3.14159…). So there you have it — Happy Almost Pi Day!

#FunFactFriday Alright we admit it. This has nothing to do with Maths and we are NOT sorry, it's almost the end of the school year 🤣 It is Queen Camilla's birthday today...but it's also actor, singer, and pop-culture icon David "the Hoff" Hasselhoff's birthday. Many happy returns to you both!

As we come to the end of the 2025.26 academic year, we wanted to thank everyone who makes what we do so brilliant - we couldn't do it without you! So whether you've been a participant, you attended our Conference or you're one of our Local Leaders of Mathematics Education - we THANK YOU

It's #FunFactFriday and today we're looking at the Eiffel Tower. Why? Because in hot weather, like now, the tower grows. The tower's usual height is around 330 meters, but on the hottest summer days, thermal expansion adds 12 to 15 centimeters to the height - AMAZING!

#FunFactFriday, as we're only three days into July we thought we'd take a look at why July is called July... The month was named by the Roman Senate to honor Julius Caesar. Before then, July actually used to be called Quintilis, being the 5th month of the calendar that started with March.
