SW maths stars shine at Olympiad
Aiming to identify the most gifted mathematics students in the State, the West Australian Junior Mathematics Olympiad tested the problem-solving skills of those in Years 7, 8 and 9.
Held simultaneously with the metropolitan competition at UWA, South West schools congregated at the satellite venue Bunbury Cathedral Grammar School for a 100 minute individual paper and 45 minute team quiz.
“Watching the students network with other young mathematicians, make new friends and solve problems together was a real buzz,” South West Mathematics Association president Tyril Houghton said.
Bunbury Senior High School and Bunbury Cathedral Grammar School scored the most wins with each school faring the best in both individual and team categories.
