Essex Heights Primary School
Australian Mathematics Competition (AMC)
A big congratulations to all of our students who participated in the Australian Mathematics Competition (AMC). The AMC always presents some challenging questions, and we hope our students enjoyed the opportunity to stretch their mathematical thinking, challenge themselves and learn from the experience.
Well done to everyone who took part!
Maths Talent Quest (MTQ)
The Maths Talent Quest is now well underway, with projects due in just a couple of weeks.
Students should email their completed project directly to Mr Tang at kelvin.tang@education.vic.gov.au by next Friday, 28 August.
We have already received some fantastic projects, with students from Foundation through to Year 6 investigating a wonderful range of mathematical questions. It has been great to see students taking ownership of their ideas and exploring mathematics in creative and interesting ways.
