The children of Ganges class created a difficult maths puzzle for themselves as the period of Advent came around. As school is only open for eleven days in the month of December the problem was how were they going to have every single one of the thirty children in class open a door on the new Advent display?
Well they soon figured out that 30 divided by 11 doesn't work so what were they to do? Then after some intense discussions it became clear. They need to open the advent calendar three times a day for nine days, 9 x 3 = 27, which leaves two for the tenth day and the final one for the eleventh day at school, perfect.
The new schedule is open one after morning registration, another mid morning with the third door being opened following afternoon registration.
If you are wondering what happens when the chocolates have run out on our small advent calendar, well, we get to choose from a box of chocolates.
