Description

In the School Maths Olympics, teams of students from secondary schools compete in an exciting and fast-moving event that combines physical and intellectual elements, in a fun and encouraging atmosphere. The problems are based more on lateral thinking than manual calculation, and require no knowledge of mathematics above Year 10 level. As such, a high school student of any year level with a talent for problem solving is suitable for this competition. Further information may be found at:

Prizes will be awarded to the highest scoring teams, who will also be invited to lunch with the organisers and helpers. It is not necessary for students to wear school uniform.

Please note: team places are strictly limited and due to overwhelming demand we must impose a strict limit of one team per school. Schools wishing to send more than one team may indicate their preference to do so on the event form, and in the event that places are still available after the closing date, those schools will be invited to register another team. If you have any problems or questions, please don’t hesitate to send us an email.
