//Duncraig campus has been awarded The Mathematical Association of Western Australia silver certification in recognition of actively extending students and staff in the classroom and beyond. The Potato Olympics, Maths Show and a mix of staff professional development opportunities were just some of the highlights in the Mathematics Learning Area in 2020 which were showcased to MAWA.
//Nick Holmes competed in the U18 2,000m steeplechase on Sunday 21 February at 10:30AM (very warm conditions) – he was first in a time of 6:17.22.
He has automatically qualified for the Australian Athletics Championships being held in Sydney between 12-19 April this year (COVID permitting), and intends to participate in the 2,000m steeplechase scheduled on April 18.
A US College scholarship is still something very much in his sights so he can combine his love of athletics with studies in a medical field, and avoid the substantial cost of doing similar studies in Australia.
CONGRATULATIONS NICK!

Matt Richmond Head of Learning Area Health and Physical Education undertook the renowned Rottnest Swim this year as a solo competitor. He had the help as his paddler ex-student Ellie from the graduating class of 2019.
He has competed before, Team 2019 & Duo 2020 (both with Mrs Manley).
The conditions were so bad they called off the race at 2.45pm -only the second time in the 30-year history- but Matt got there!
What an effort!
Congratulations Matt!
