Maths mantle: Swift Air

Swift Air



One of the first mantles I did in maths was Swift Air - main rivals of Ryanair. It covered problem solving, calculations with money, converting money (to euros), calculating times and time differences. The class was a top set of year 4/3 children. Through this work, they showed that they could use and apply their k+u of money and calculating to do quite complex sums involving hundreds of pounds. The following text comes straight from the class blog from 2006/07.





Swift Air were very excited to announce their new service this week- flights from Norwich International Airport.




The team worked hard to make sure that customers would be aware of the ten new destinations from Norwich - mostly capital cities in Europe. They calculated flight times and travel costs, before putting together some hotel and car hire deals.



Our first customers have benefitted from the special offers on flights and when we spoke to them they were very happy with the service they received.So next time you feel like a city break, why not contact us to find the perfect deal for you!
