On Monday 9^th of October, selected students from Year 7 to 10 represented Geelong High School at the Victorian Challenge and Enrichment Maths Games day.

This was held virtually, so our students worked in teams at the school to solve number problems. The tasks required flexible thinking, applying their number sense to riddles, and collaborating with their peers to submit the best solutions. Over 200 students from 50 schools participated virtually in the day and our students should be proud of their efforts.

Four of our teams ranked in the top 25 for the state and we’re excited to report that Jett Whitford and Ed West were the only students in the whole competition to completely solve the Magic 4 Square puzzle. Well done!
