Mathematics
is an area of knowledge older than recorded history and has, through
the ages, developed into a sophisticated, complex body of knowledge.
It
has applications
in all human activities, crossing cultural and linguistic boundaries,
to provide a universal way of solving problems in areas such as science,
engineering, technology, art, crafts, commerce and many everyday activities.
At
Salesian College,
our vision is that through learning Mathematics, students will acquire
the mathematical skills and knowledge that will help them deal confidently
and competently with daily life.
Also,
we aim
that our students will develop the skills to effectively use Mathematics,
whether for employment, further study or interest.
