Congratulations to Oscar Mckinlay, Frank Du and Hamish Robotham for achieving 6th overall in stage 2 of the Victorian Coding Challenge!
In the lead-up to this second part, Oscar, Frank and Hamish spent the early half of the year meeting outside of school hours to work on a series of tasks together. Through their persistence and effort, they were invited to Stage 2 of the VCC and achieved an overall 6th place!
Well done, the three of you!
