A number of passionate mathematics students, in Years 11 and 12 achieved excellent results in the Australian Mathematics Competition earlier this term. Outstanding participants were rewarded with Certificates of Credit, Distinction, High Distinction and a Prize.

In total, six students were awarded Distinction certificates and four students were awarded Credit certificates. Three students were awarded High Distinction certificates, of which two of these achieved in the 100 percentile rank.

Clare Hong (Year 11) sat the same paper as the Year 12 students and was awarded a Prize. A prize is awarded generally to no more than 1 student for every 300 students within their year group.
