Minds in Motion: Outstanding Results at the da Vinci Decathlon

A big congratulations to our brilliant academics who recently competed in the prestigious da Vinci Decathlon! Designed to challenge the brightest minds, this rigorous competition tests students across ten demanding disciplines, requiring intense teamwork, critical thinking, and lateral problem-solving under pressure.

Our teams across Year 7 to Year 11 stepped up to the plate and delivered some truly spectacular results against the toughest competition in the region.

While every team pushed their cognitive limits, a special mention goes to our Year 9 team, who walked away with an incredible 8th place overall finish, anchored by a phenomenal 1st place victory in Ideation and 3rd place in Legacy!
