On Wednesday, a group of our talented Year 9 accelerated Mathematics students participated in the exciting Inquisitive Minds Mathematics Workshop, where they worked together with students from three other local secondary schools: Burwood Girls High School, Concord High School and Homebush Boys High School. Each school had chosen 24 students to participate in this event which, organised by and held at Strathfield Girls High School, was designed to challenge students with a variety of problem-solving tasks and team-based mathematical challenges. The workshop was delivered by Inquisitive Minds, a Sydney based educational organisation which focuses on creating positive mathematical experiences for students. The day was a fantastic success, with students gaining valuable experience, boosting their confidence, and developing a deeper interest in mathematics. Our students had the opportunity to demonstrate their critical thinking, mathematical skills, and teamwork in a high-energy, competitive environment. It was wonderful to see their enthusiasm, and we are incredibly proud of their achievements. Congratulations to all students involved and many thanks to our fabulous Mathematics Faculty for coordinating this rich day of learning and collaboration for our Year 9 students! We look forward to participating in future events and continuing to foster a love of mathematics within our school community.
