South Auckland Mathematics Challenge

Another year and another opportunity for our students to participate in the South Auckland Mathematics Challenge (SAMC).

It was great to see some of our Year 9 students sign up for an extracurricular activity that most had seen when they came to the open week here at Māngere College last year. Our teams were part of all four events in Term 2 and a couple of our teams placed in most of the events. In addition to SAMC, in Week 8 we hosted the Māngere Mathematics competition for our feeder schools Bader Intermediate, Māngere Central School and Viscount School. Our lovely Year 13 students who are taking Maths courses this year helped out and also had the opportunity to reconnect with some of their intermediate teachers. Term 3 is another busy term with the last three events for SAMC and the regional Mathex competition. Be sure to follow how our students are going in SAMC on Facebook and Instagram as well as through our school social media pages.
