Last week a letter was sent home to parents in Year 5 and 6 about the 2021 Kiwi English, Mathematics and Science Competitions. It is important to note that this is an optional exam.
The University of Canterbury is offering your child the opportunity to participate in the KIWI English, Mathematics and Science competitions. These competitions take place annually and are designed by New Zealand teachers for New Zealand students based on the New Zealand Curriculum. For further information, please consult the CAM website www.canterbury.ac.nz/cam.

The competitions are open to all Year 5-10 students in English, Mathematics and Science. Students can enter in one or more subjects. The competition will provide parents/caregivers with an Individual Pupil Report of a student’s performance. The supervised online tests will take place in the last 3 weeks of Term 2 and the first week of Term 3. The cost of each competition is $9.50.

All participating students will receive a certificate, and a prize will be awarded to the top student nationally in each competition.
