When given a challenge, the students will rise to the occasion.
Mr. Nguyen’s Year 8 mathematics challenge this year is to memorise the digits of Pi.
It is so wonderful to see every student pushing their limits and breaking their personal bests.
Today, Raffaela Crispo reached the 68th digit in just two lessons, followed by Rodney Talasinga with a score of 55th digits.
We can’t wait to look to see what they could do by the end of this challenge.
