Australian Maths Competition (AMC)

 

Early in Term 3, we were lucky enough to have 66 students from grades 3-6 volunteer to participate in the Australian Maths Competition. This is a very tough, nation-wide mathematics competition run by the Australian Maths Trust.

 

Our results were exceptional, with 45 students scoring a Credit or higher… an amazing result!

 

Three students achieved a High Distinction, which puts them in the top 3% of all students at their year level.

Congratulations to Logan Tan, Caleb Burt, and Zachariah Narangala (who also achieved ‘best in school’)… we’re super proud of you, and all the other students who were courageous enough to give it a go.
