The Joy and Benefits of Mathematics at Maharishi School
At Maharishi School, we believe that Mathematics is not just about numbers — it’s about thinking, exploring, and discovering patterns in the world around us. In following the Victorian Curriculum, our approach to teaching Maths is designed to build confidence, spark curiosity, and help every child develop a deep understanding of mathematical concepts.
More Than Just Sums
Maths is everywhere — in nature, art, music, design, and everyday life. From solving problems to recognising shapes or understanding time, Maths helps children make sense of the world and at the Maharishi School, we help students see Maths as something meaningful, creative, and fun.
Building Strong Foundations
Our program focuses on:
Hands-on learning – We use games, concrete materials, and real-life examples.
Problem-solving skills – Children learn how to approach challenges with a positive mindset.
Mathematical thinking – We encourage reasoning, pattern recognition, and logical steps.
By laying strong foundations early, students gain the tools to approach more complex concepts with confidence and clarity. As parents, and their first teacher, you play an important role in supporting your children and at the Maharishi School, we are happy to support parents with additional resources for home.
Connecting Maths to the Real World
One of the keys to making Maths meaningful is helping children see how it connects to everyday life. We explore Maths through cooking, measuring, budgeting and mapping. These real-world links help students understand how Maths is useful — and often quite enjoyable.
Calm Minds, Clear Thinking
With the support of our Consciousness-Based Education approach, students develop focus, clarity, and steady attention. This supports all areas of learning — especially in subjects like Maths, where concentration and step-by-step thinking are important.
A Skill for Life
Mathematics helps children develop skills they’ll use for a lifetime — from logical thinking and decision-making to creativity and precision. At Maharishi School, we make sure our students see Maths as something to enjoy, explore, and feel proud of.
Because when children feel confident in their learning, they feel more confident in themselves.
