Maths Games

This is the first year that our school got involved in the VCE Maths Games Day. It was held at Lakeview Senior College on Monday 7 August. Eight students were chosen from Year 11 and 12 to make up 2 teams; Ngoc Anh Bui, Anh Tu Hoang, Kylie Nga Quynh Hoang, Thinh Truong Luong, Brendan Nguyen, Cuong Huy Quang Tran, Thi Da Mi Tran, and Julie Vo.   

 

The day provided the students with an opportunity to develop their mathematical talents and problem solving skills. The students demonstrated a keen interest in mathematics and operated well as a team on the day. Both teams came 11th out of 20 teams. What a good effort for first timers. They all had a fun and challenging experience; the Year 11 students said that they would love to attend again next year.

Year 9 Maths Games Day

The Year 9 Maths Games Day was held at Williamstown High School on Tuesday 15 August. The students were chosen from the Year 9 Maths Extension as a reward for their excellent work so far this year. The team comprised of Yvonne Dang, Nina Ngo, Patrick Shaw and Jeremy Tomal.

The day encouraged students to work in teams while thinking critically to solve a variety of problems. Our teams finished in the top 25. Considering that all the selective entry schools were in attendance, the result was something to be proud of.
