These competitions are a good opportunity for schools and parents to see how well their children are performing compared to others of the same age participating nationally.

The English, Mathematics and Science competitions cater for students of all abilities in Years 7-10. They are skills-based tests, closely aligned with the New Zealand Curriculum.

Students can enter all three subjects or choose to focus on the subjects they are most interested in. There is a fee of $9.90 per subject.

Registrations close Friday 17th May. 

Certificates will be provided for all participating students, and the top student in each competition will receive a prize.

If your child is interested in participating in any of these competitions they should speak to their English, Mathematics or Science teachers for more details.
