Talented mathematicians from Woady Yaloak, Buninyong, Delacombe, Sebastopol, Dana Street and Lal Lal primary schools met at Buninyong on Friday for a day of maths challenges.
Twenty-two teams of four competed against each other, with pupils from Woady Yaloak’s Snake Valley campus emerging as the winners after a day full of sums, practical challenges, activities and a maths relay.
Preparations for the maths challenge day began early with each team having to design and build a robot before the competition, which they had to bring with them for judging at Buninyong Primary School.
“These are all high-achieving maths students so the idea behind the day is to bring those like-minded maths kids together and challenge them, and also to showcase how important maths is,” said Woady Yaloak PS Snake Valley campus head Stephen Cox.
