MATH QUEST TOURNAMENT
MATH QUEST TOURNAMENT
The second stage of the selection process for the Primary 5 and 6 students who will be travelling to Berlin to participate in the “European Council of International Schools’ Under Twelves Maths Quest” took place last Thursday 24th of October. The test consisted on 23 questions that the students, the 44 who had passed the first stage of the process, had to answer in 45 minutes. Congratulations!
The Math Quest, which will take place this year on the the 4th, 5th and 6th of April, is a competition organized by the ECIS (European Council of International Schools) of which Europa International School is a proud member. Students from several countries take part in the competition every year and they carry out different mathematical activities: individual and team questions, a construction challenge and a mathematical gymkhana around the city. The Math Quest is a competition for under 12 year olds, and the participants are the most gifted in mathematics of each school. Even if the level is high, the main aim of the competition is to foster motivation and enjoyment for mathematics by means of an intercultural experience that promotes the interrelation among participants.
Good luck everyone!
