It was under the radiant sun of Friday May 17 that students from our middle and high school joined their classmates from the Lycée des Iscles to play simultaneous chess games with our two mathematics teachers and chess champions, Mr. Camel and Mr. Gallot . The students were not unworthy, Paul Bonin (S3) and the duo Mélanie Rodriguez and Amandine Coustet (1st) won their game against Mr. Camel on a table of 40  games, while on the other table M. Gallot conceded one draw in his 24 games.

Congratulations to all the players for this unforgettable moment.
Le labo de maths

From May 13 to 15, 2024, a group of 24 1ère and S6 students had the opportunity to participate in a “Hippocampe” camp, organized by the University of Aix-Marseille in the idyllic setting of the Luminy campus.

The students also visited the library of the Center International de Rencontres Mathématiques (CIRM) and discovered the importance of sharing knowledge between mathematicians and the evolution of mathematical publications over the centuries.

The evenings were dedicated to fun activities, a hike in the Sujiton calanque, a visit to the town of Cassis, and games which strengthened the bonds between the students.

The Hippocampe camp was an enriching experience in many ways. It offered our students an intense and fascinating dive into the world of mathematics. We warmly thank the University of Aix-Marseille for this initiative, the researchers and doctoral students who accompanied us these three days, Ms. Founaud and Ms. Bonacucina for the organization and Mr. Gilbert and Mr. Perez for chaperoning the trip.
