Congratulations are extended to all students from our Year 5 and Year 6 team who participated in this year’s Junior Division of the Australian Problem-Solving Mathematical Olympiads (APSMO). The Maths Olympiads is a program where students use and develop their problem-solving skills and applied mathematics.

The select Year 5 and Year 6 students spent time during Terms, 1, 2 and 3 exploring problem-solving strategies and they enjoyed the buzz and challenge the program had to offer.  During Assembly, all team members were presented with certificates of achievement and special awards were given to the following team members for their outstanding individual achievement:
