Inquisitive Minds challenge for both Primary and Secondary school students with hands-on activities and problem-solving workshops which have been designed to improve students’ attitude and performance in Maths. The day is a High Performing and Gifted Education (HPGE) initiative to support our students who excel in mathematics.
The day exposes our HPGE mathematics students to four hours of problem solving alongside like-minded peers! These workshops focus not only on teaching students advanced problem solving strategies, but also on having them consider the best way of solving a problem.
This year, Plumpton High School proudly celebrated outstanding success in the competition!
In the Schools Competition, congratulations to Emma Lucas and Zina Nwigbo of Year 9, who took out 1st place, securing Plumpton High School the top spot ahead of strong contenders from Jamison High and Riverstone High School’s.
In the Student vs Student Challenge where students partnered with a student from another school, Zackary Al-Shible claimed 1st place, followed by impressive performances from Joel Lee and Emma Lucas.
Well done to all participants for showcasing such mathematical talent and teamwork! Thank you to Ms Prasad, Mr. Lou, Ms Waldon and Ms Nabhan, for organising and leading such a valuable High Potential and Gifted Education (HPGE) initiative
