For Maths Week Ms. McCarthy has created an interactive mathematical diagram of a Cyclic Quadrilateral using Geogebra.
Theorem: Cyclic Quadrilateral
Theorem: Opposite angels in a cyclic quadrilateral add up to 180°.
Instructions: Move vertices around the circle to see the changes in angles. Note that the angles still add up to 180°.
NOTE: If you do not see an interactive mathematical diagram, created with GeoGebra, you must download Java software so that your browser can display it correctly. Go to the Java website now and click the 'download now' button! It should take about 5 minutes for you install.

The TY Horticulture class were out in the Autumn sunshine planting Spring bulbs using the chaos planting method. This is when a multitude of different spring bulbs (Hyacinths, Daffodils, Tulips, Crocuses, Narcissi) are mixed together and randomly planted so that we have a mixture of flowers and patterns emerging in the spring. It mimics nature and so is more enticing to pollinators and native insects that need the food in Spring.
Stratford is celebrating Maths Week 2026 (12th - 18th October) with daily activities around the school, at breaktimes and in Maths classes! The tutor-time daily quiz is proving to be extremely competitive as each form group tries to solve it and then run to find Ms Matthews in order to win the box of chocolates!
