WORLD SCHOLAR'S CUP

Challenging, Fun and Amazing

On Thursday 1 June, members of the Kew High School Book Club (Maddie Swan, Tara Pringle, Rachel Nankin, Eunice Sheng, Sophia Cleaver, Giorgia Benini, and Michelle Nguyen) had the chance to participate in the inaugural Melbourne Round of the World Scholar’s Cup, a competition including over 3000 students in 50 countries. We took part in four main events: writing, debating, a multiple choice test and trivia. We had so much fun throughout these activities, even though the whole day was 13 hours long! As well as the writing and speeches, we all got to take home plush alpacas, which only added to the crazy fun. At the end of the day, our points were tallied up and two of the three Kew High teams have been invited to the next round! Overall, it was a challenging fun amazing experience for all of us involved.
