The Year 11 Talented Maths Day was a really enjoyable and rewarding experience. Throughout the day, we were challenged to think critically, solve problems under pressure and work together as a team. Although some of the questions were difficult, it was exciting to push ourselves and try different ways of solving problems.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the best parts of the day was being able to work with other students and meet people from different schools, some who could do impressive mental maths like 99 squared, and others who enjoyed the thrill of problem solving. The activities helped us build our teamwork and communication skills, especially when we had to rely on each other to complete questions correctly and quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n

Overall, the experience was both fun and challenging, and it allowed us to strengthen our mathematical thinking in a different environment outside the classroom. Although it was a tough competition, the team managed to place in the top 15, which we are extremely proud of. We are very grateful to Miss Ibrahim for providing guidance to the team and giving us the chance to represent our school, and a big thanks to the Sydney Technical High School for hosting such a fun yet challenging event.<\/span><\/p>\n
