Australian Mathematics Competition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Each year the Australian Maths Trust holds the Australian Mathematics Competition which is the nation’s longest running and most well-known maths competition for school students. The competition is designed for high achieving mathematicians who get the opportunity to challenge their thinking through tackling unique problems. This year, 22 of our students across grades 4-6 entered the AMC and they are all congratulated on undertaking a very challenging competition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
