Competition time: Design a friend for B-bot with a special maths
superpower to win SuperQuesters books!
To celebrate Maths Week Scotland 2024, QuestFriendz is running a competition for children to use their creative thinking and maths skills to design a new friend for B-bot the robot.
Open to all children aged 4 to 12 years old in the UK and Ireland, the winner will receive all four of the SuperQuesters books plus an extra set for their school.
The challenge
The SuperQuesters – Lillicorn, Bea Bumble and Leo Zoom – would like to invent a new robot friend with special maths powers for their dear friend B-bot.
They think the best people to help them are children – like them.
