At the beginning of August, 96 students from Year 7 to 11 participated in the Australian Mathematics Competition (AMC), held annually by the Australian Maths Trust. The AMC was first held in 1978, and is Australia’s longest running and most well-known maths competition for school students. This competition contains unique problems designed to challenge and extend the problem-solving skills of students.
This year many students have been recognised for their achievements within this competition. OLMC is proud to have had 31 students achieve a Credit award - placing them in the top 55% of Victorian students in their year level who participated in the competition. Also, 11 students received awards of Distinction, placing them in top 3% of competing Victorian Students. A list of these awardees is noted below. A special congratulations goes to Valarie L in Year 8, who not only received a Distinction, but was also recognised as the best performing student at OLMC.
