Year 8 Code Breaking Day

Year 8 students enjoyed an extra-curricular Code Breaking day full of puzzles, teamwork, and problem-solving. They explored the fascinating history of code breaking and its development up to the present day, discovering how mathematical concepts studied in the classroom, like prime numbers, can be used to encrypt banking data.

Students put their skills to the test by deciphering a range of different codes before coming together in tutor groups to try and crack a combination lock. Teamwork was essential, as different Maths classes had learned different codes. Excitement reached a peak as students worked to unlock a treasure chest and claim both the prize inside and valuable House points!
