Otago Problem Challenge

The Otago Problem Challenge is a mathematics problem solving competition aimed primarily at children in years 7 and 8. It is organised through the University of Otago. Students participating in the competition attempt to answer five questions in 30 minutes on each of five problem sheets, which are done about a month apart starting in April. At Avonhead we invite students from Year 7/8 to take part as well as any exceptional mathematicians from other parts of the school.

Congratulations to our amazing mathematicians who achieved Merit or higher in this competition for 2019.
