A great finish to the year for Moate Community School’s Junior Maths team as they place 3rd<\/sup>\u00a0in the country in the Irish Applied Maths Teachers Association Junior Problem Solving Competition.<\/p>\n

The team, comprised of Fionn Campbell (TY), Emma Keane (TY), Fionn Murphy (3rd) and Gavin Quilty (3rd) had a stellar year this year. In Early January they competed in the Midlands Regional IAMTA Junior Problem Solving Competition. A fantastic performance saw them crowned Midlands Champions and earn themselves a place in the National Final.<\/p>\n

The final consisted of teams from all across the country coming together in Athlone to face off for the crown of National Champion. A tight battle saw the lead change hands numerous times over the course of the contest.<\/p>\n

Eventually when the dust had settled, Moate emerged in joint 2nd<\/sup>\u00a0place only one answer behind the winning team.<\/p>\n

With three teams tied 2nd<\/sup>\u00a0, a tiebreaker was needed to separate them.<\/p>\n

MCS came out in 3rd<\/sup>\u00a0place over all, A fantastic achievement from Fionn, Emma, Fionn and Gavin.<\/p>\n
