On Monday 26th and Tuesday 27th of October Thomas McIntyre of Year 9 and seven other Year 8 and 9 students volunteered to take part in the Western Australian Junior Mathematics Olympiad run by the University of Western Australia. This competition was carried out at 30 schools across Western Australia and involved students staying behind after school to carry out a 100 minute individual test followed by a 45 minute test as a team of four the following day. While all students should be commended for their efforts, Thomas performed exceptionally well and achieved a High Distinction and was invited to the awards ceremony at UWA to receive his certificate as well as a prize for his results. Congratulations Thomas for your amazing efforts and may your love of mathematics continue.
