We are proud to share highlights from our recent Maths Club outreach at Oluyole Estate Grammar School (OEGS), Ibadan, held on 25 February 2026.
With a team of dedicated volunteers and the support of the school’s mathematics teachers, we engaged over 50 students from JSS3 to SS3 in an interactive session on Exploring Graphs: Bringing Equations to Life.
The session moved beyond theory into hands-on learning. Students explored linear, quadratic, and trigonometric graphs using technology, visualising in real time how equations translate into shapes and patterns. This practical approach deepened their understanding of key concepts such as slope, symmetry, and wave behaviour.
We are especially grateful to Merz Aesthetics, whose generous donation of computers made it possible for students to actively engage with graphing tools and experience mathematics dynamically.
At CHRISTAD Foundation, our Maths Club is driven by a simple but powerful vision: to help students see mathematics beyond the classroom.
Through activities like this, students begin to recognise how graphs are not just abstract ideas, but tools used in everyday life, including:
· Tracking mobile phone battery and data usage
· Understanding heart rate monitors and medical readings
· Analysing financial trends such as stock prices
· Modelling sound waves, motion, and seasonal patterns
The enthusiasm from both students and teachers was inspiring, and we are excited about building a sustained Maths Club presence at OEGS.
We look forward to returning soon and continuing to nurture curiosity, confidence, and real-world problem-solving skills in young learners.
