QAMT Quiz

Year 7 and 8 students continue to set high standards in Mathematics after the Pacific A team won third place at the Queensland Association of Mathematics Teachers (QAMT) annual inter-school quiz last Tuesday. The Pacific B team also performed well, compiling a high score.

The students were tested over five rounds including estimation, speed, problem solving (individual and team) and general knowledge. The aim of the quiz was to engage high achieving students in Mathematics and encouraged teamwork and cooperation. Our students competed with enthusiasm and showed great commitment to solving complex problems.

The Pacific A team will now move on to the regional final later this month.

Congratulations to the following students on their efforts:

• Team A: Amedy Buchanan, Beyonce Matthew and Cooper Kiernan.
• Team B: Harrison Hockam, Kielana Clewett and Ayanna Nath.
