Earlier in Term 2, 161 students took part in the Australian Mathematics Competition. Students competed in the Junior (Years 7 and 8), Intermediate (Years 9 and 10) or Senior (Years 11 and 12) division. Each division comprised of 30 questions, where students had to read and interpret a range of questions with varying degrees of difficulty. Certificates are given to students who achieve in the top 3-5% (High Distinction); top 20-25% (Distinction); and top 55-60% (Credit).

This year, we are pleased to announce that 3 students received High Distinctions, 17 students received Distinctions and 47 students received Credits. For the second year running, the Best in School Award went to Marc Rouillard in Year 9. Well done to all students who took part in the competition. A special thank you to Debbie Yeoh who coordinated the competition, even though she was on leave during 2021.
