Achievements A major focus in recent years has been getting our pupils involved in problem solving. Our primary pupils have been involved in the numeracy project, and in 2010 all middle school pupils will be involved in the secondary numeracy project. Our Y7 and Y8 pupils have been competing in the Otago University Problem Solving competition, Y7 - Y10 pupils competed in the Cantamath teams competitions, Y4 - Y10 pupils have been solving problems online using Mathletics and Y4 - Y10 pupils have participated in the International Competitions and Assessments for Schools (ICAS), formerly known as the Australasian Schools Competitions. Cantamath
In recent years our school has experienced great successes at the Cantamath competitions. In 2009, Natasha and Lolohea gained an excellence award in the wearable maths section.
In the teams competition our Y10 team performed very well in 2008 and in 2009 our Y9 team gained a perfect score of 100 points and finished 4th overall. This was the first time a school from the Christian Schools Network had achieved a perfect score and the first time a school with a small roll had achieved a perfect score.
