Recently 106 students from Year 7 - 11 participated in the Australian Mathematics Competition, which is an internationally recognised competition organised by the Australian Maths Trust (AMT). Students were given 75mins to solve complex problems, where the problems got more challenging as the competition progressed.

Thank you and congratulations to each of the students that participated in the competition this year.

Year 9 completed a unit on right-angled trigonometry this Semester.  Students put their learning into action by determining the height of a lamp post and the distance of a marker using a tape measure, clinometer and trigonometric knowledge of angles of elevation and depression.
