Mathematics
2023 has been a busy year in the mathematics department. Students in all year levels have now completed all the assessments for this year. Well done to all students for their hard work and perseverance throughout the year. A massive thank you to all the parents/ carers for their continuous support to help us support their children in their mathematics journey.
Mathematics team have done an amazing job by delivering the curriculum in an engaging way and challenging students to achieve their absolute best. As a department, we are committed to reviewing and refining our practice in order to improve the educational outcomes for all our students.
Australian Mathematics Competition 2023:
Australian Mathematics Competition (AMC) is run every year by the Australian Mathematics Trust. The AMC contains unique problems designed each year by leading educators and academics to challenge and extend students’ problem-solving skills. This year 46 of our year 7 – 8 students participated in the AMC and did exceptionally well. Students were presented their certificates during parade in week 8. 22 students received the Proficient award, 13 Credits and 1 High Distinction. High Distinction is awarded to a student who is in top 3% of their year level.
Congratulations to Alex J., who received High Distinction and the Best in School award for 2023!
Remarkable achievement by our students.
