6th Year Higher Level Maths Teams @ the Dublin Maths Quiz

The atmosphere in St Andrew's was electric and intense. It really felt like the competition was on!! At one point during the heated contest, team Dominican was joint first on the leader board. But we were surrounded by fierce competition! Although our team fell short of victory, we were glad that another all-girls school won
the cup.

Participating on the quiz was a fantastic experience for the team and very good revision the coming Leaving Certificate. Well done to all the students involved, EimearDuff, Nabeeha Moolan, Jessica Gunnoo and Aoife Courtney.
