MATHS CHALLENGE: it was the final round of this yearโs FE Maths Challenge yesterday. Students from across the region competed against each other to decide the winners of this yearโs challenge. Wilberforce won the Funkies categories, but for the Go Forth category, it went right down to the final round of the challenge to decide who would win the category. Franklin did eventually win the Go Forth category, but after some fierce competition from the Wilberforce team. ๐งฎ
