Maths Competition Results

John Major —

Due to Covid some of our usual competitions either didn’t happen or were reduced. The regional Senior and Junior O’MAthalon was cancelled as was the Australian CAT (Computational and Algorithmic Thinking) Competition.

Interhouse O’MAthalon - after a break of 10 years this was held in the Gym. Each House had a Junior and a Senior team. There were also 2 Staff teams. Overall Toroa won followed by Aoraki, Omimi, Clayton and the Staff. A couple of dodgy answers meant the results were a bit controversial. We will get it right next year.
