Maths that makes them think.
A weekly mathematics enrichment club for capable primary school students who are ready for more challenge, deeper thinking and stronger preparation for secondary school.
Maths Club Mondays
They can do maths.
They just need more from it.
Maths Club is for capable students who may be bored, coasting, losing enthusiasm or simply not being stretched enough by the mathematics they currently experience.
They’re coasting
They complete the work but rarely encounter mathematics that genuinely makes them stop and think.
They’ve switched off
Maths is starting to feel repetitive, mechanical or simply boring, and their enthusiasm is fading.
They’re ready for more
They enjoy patterns, puzzles, strategy, interesting questions and opportunities to explore ideas more deeply.
This isn’t just tutoring.
We’re not here just to complete tonight’s homework or race students through next year’s textbook.
Maths Club gives students the space to investigate, test ideas, notice patterns, make connections, explain their reasoning and become more comfortable tackling unfamiliar problems.
The aim isn’t simply to know more maths. It’s to become a stronger mathematical thinker.
We’re building:
- Mathematical reasoning
- Number sense
- Problem-solving strategies
- Conceptual understanding
- Mathematical communication
- Confidence with unfamiliar problems
- Persistence and flexible thinking
Maths Club Mondays
One small group meeting every Monday during the school term. Each session explores rich mathematics designed to make students think, question, reason and make connections.
Along the way, students strengthen the mathematical foundations and habits of mind they will increasingly rely on as they move into secondary school.
Join the waitlistStudents don’t have to be at the top of their class.
What matters more is that they have sufficient foundational mathematical skills to participate confidently in a small-group environment and are ready to engage with ideas, puzzles and problems.
A student may be achieving highly, achieving solidly, or even performing below their potential because they have disengaged.
Maths Club is an enrichment program rather than an intensive intervention or remedial tutoring service.
Less repetition. More thinking.
Sessions vary from week to week, but students can expect mathematics that asks them to participate, investigate, explain and explore.
Puzzles & challenges
Problems that require students to notice, reason and try different approaches.
Rich investigations
Tasks where there may be more than one pathway, strategy or solution.
Games & strategy
Mathematical games that develop fluency, prediction, reasoning and strategic thinking.
School Holiday Programs
Occasional mathematics enrichment workshops built around puzzles, games, investigations and hands-on mathematical challenges.
Holiday programs give children an opportunity to experience mathematics differently in a relaxed, engaging environment.
Register your interest and we’ll let you know when upcoming programs are announced.
Register your interestFamily Maths Nights
Bring mathematics to life across your school community with an interactive evening for students and their families.
Families work together on engaging mathematical activities, puzzles, games and challenges designed to get children and adults talking, thinking and enjoying mathematics together.
Enquire for your schoolCreated by a mathematics educator who wants children to experience maths differently.
Maths should give children something to wonder about, wrestle with and ultimately understand — not simply another page of questions to complete.
About Danijela
Maths Club was created by Danijela Draskovic, an experienced mathematics educator, secondary Mathematics and Physics teacher, and Education Manager at The Mathematical Association of Victoria.
Danijela’s work centres on improving mathematics teaching, understanding how students think and helping learners move beyond memorised procedures towards genuine mathematical understanding.
Maths Club brings that philosophy into a small-group environment where students have time and space to explore mathematics properly.
