Mathix Competition

8 people went to a mathix competion at Upper Moutere School.

There was a year 7 group which included Jess, Natasha, Jackson and Harry.The year 8 group was Poppy, Stephen, Nick and Rachael.

We were very excited to win the Bright Sparks award. From our combined effort of both teams

Here is a report about the Mathix Competition, written by one of the winning students:

 

Nelson Mathix quiz!

Every year Nayland College hosts the Nelson Mathix Competition where mathematicans congregate to find the regions top number crunchers! This year was no different! We arrived amongst a hugmongus crowd of math wizards. We certainly were small. As we sat down at our desks in the middle of the top mathmaticians in Nelson, We saw our nervous looking parents staring back at us as we looked at the maths questions in desperation hoping to win the trophy that sat on the table in front of us. Our team was made out of four brains; Nick, Rachael, Poppy and me! We felt pretty confident. We got 10 questions right and passed 2 so our total was 6. Overall, it was one of the best maths experiences we have had.
