Pi Day Party! Mathnasium, The Math Learning Centre

Mathnasium, The Math Learning Centre, invites you to a Pi Day Party on March 14, from 3:00 – 5:30 pm.

Why should we care about pi? 3.14… . The number may be irrational, but it can be found all over the natural world. It appears everywhere there’s a circle, such as the disk of the sun, planets, and even the earth. Pi is in the physics that describes waves, such as light and sound. Pi even appears in the spiral of the DNA double helix! This is why we care about pi, and it’s why we’re inviting you to come celebrate this exceptional number with us at our Pi Day party! We will have Pi related games and fun activities for everyone. Let’s celebrate this incredible, irrational number!

Event takes place at Mathnasium Of Tri-cities.
