Today is the Winter Solstice! ❄️

Today marks the shortest day of the year in Australia.

In many parts of southern Australia, there will be only about 9½ hours of daylight today, compared to more than 14 hours in summer.

That's nearly 5 fewer hours of sunshine! ☀️

The good news? From today onwards, the days start getting longer and lighter again.

🌅 Maths is everywhere - even in the changing seasons! 🧠

⚽🏆 The world's talking football... we're talking maths!

From angles and speed to strategy and statistics, maths is behind every great play.

Today's challenge:
A player scores 2 goals, another scores 1 goal, and their team wins 4–3.

🤔 How many goals did the rest of the winning team score?

Here's a winter maths fun fact:
Snowflakes are naturally symmetrical. If you draw a line through the middle, both sides match almost perfectly.

That's called symmetry, one of the coolest maths concepts found in nature! ✨🧠

Can you think of any other examples of symmetry you see every day? 👇

Today is National Creativity Day, so we want to hear from you.
