Great results from Otago Junior Mathematics Competition
The competition was held on 4 April in the dining room annex. Given the challenging nature of the questions, and the emphasis on problem solving and full worked solutions, only the most able students stand a chance of completing all questions correctly in the timeframe allowed.
Nationally, this competition attracts over 10,000 entries each year from about 250 participating schools. This year, based on the officially released results, six St Paul’s students have excelled, and have been awarded certificates from the University of Otago in recognition of their superb efforts.
