Maths Talent Quest 2018
Maths Talent Quest Results 2018
This week we received the results for the State Maths Talent Quest Competition. This year the Maths Association of Victoria had an enormous number of entries with roughly 660 projects received across Foundation to Year 10. Mr Noordhoff and Mrs Cornall attended the judging and as always the standard of projects were very good. Students are marked out of 60 on the judging rubric and most projects are judged three times. We would like to congratulate all students who worked extremely hard to put together their projects!
Our school entered 31 projects which is the most we have ever entered. Overall the school received 4 Participation, 4 Credits, 16 Distinctions and 7 High Distinctions. Three of the High Distinctions were judged to be of exceptional standard and will be sent through to the National Maths Talent Quest Competition for judging during the school holidays. These were Emma H from Year 6 with her project ‘Toastie Town’, Mr. Noordhoff’s Maths Group with their project ‘Bee Careful Around the Volcano’ and Miss Masiey’s Maths Group with their project ‘An Investigation into Speed and Kinetic Energy.
Students who received a distinction or high distinction will be invited to the Award Ceremony to be held at La Trobe University (Bundoora) on Thursday 18 October from 10:00am until roughly 12:00pm. Parents will need to organise students to be transported to and from the venue on the day. Invited students should have already received information regarding this and filled out the form on Qkr.
