On Thursday 9th October, some Year 13 and 14 students took part in the UKMT Senior Mathematical Challenge. This challenge encourages mathematical reasoning, precision of thought, and fluency in using basic mathematical techniques to solve interesting problems.
Eric Tripa received a Gold certificate which was fantastic. He was best in the school and has been invited to take part in the Senior Kangaroo follow on round on November 19th. An excellent achievement for him and we wish him good luck for this.
The following students received a Silver certificate which was brilliant. They were Natalia Dowha, Eoghan Campbell, Eloise McDonagh, Barry Hutchinson, Jessy Irwin and Jamie Dunlop.
The following students received a Bronze certificate which was also great. They were Lin Ruo Zhang, Thomas McNiece, James Gallagher, Danny Nguyen and Conor Taylor.
The following achieved Certificates of Participation. They were Harley Sheppard, Amelie Curry, Oliver McNeary, Alex Crawford, Tom Fallis and Ethan Downey. Well done to all these pupils who took part. This is an extremely difficult Mathematics Challenge and credit to everyone for attempting it.
Some pupils were camera shy and did not wish to be included in the photos, but all got their certificates.
