St Margaret’s College students achieved an outstanding result at the annual Year 11 Calculator Competition, taking out first place in the team competition.
The competition, which follows on from Cantamath, challenges students to solve a series of demanding mathematical problems under pressure. This year, SMC entered three teams, with all students representing the College with focus, determination and impressive teamwork.
Our winning team achieved a remarkable score of 134 out of 140 points, finishing six points clear of second place. It was an exceptional performance in a highly competitive field.
Congratulations to our winning team:

This is a fantastic achievement and a wonderful reflection of their mathematical ability, problem-solving skills and calm thinking under pressure.
A huge well done also goes to all of the SMC students who took part. The competition involves two hours of intense problem-solving against other Year 11 students, and our teams handled the challenge brilliantly.
