Day 8, 23rd November 2012

Today we had chicken porridge for breakfast, prepared by Jasper, Adnan, Oscar and Jerome. After that we went to Griffith University to carry on with what we left off on the previous day for our Mathematics Modelling Challenge. 


It was a race against time to completely analyse our data and make a poster and powerpoint before we had to present it to our mentors. Although many of us struggled, we still manage to complete our task.




For this years challenge, a total of six students received prizes. They are Jasper Lee (12S06), Jenice Choy (12S10), Dennis Lew (12S12), Jasmine Liew (12S17), Valerie Yue (12S18) and Jaivignesh (12S20).





After the end of the challenge, we went for a dinner cruise at Marina Mirage before saying our last good byes to our new friends.



We came back to the apartment to carry on with our reflection. We are going back to Singapore tomorrow and we feel sad. However, we have benefitted a lot from this trip. We have a deeper understanding of the education system in Australia and how the students learn Math. We are also culturally more aware. We thank our teachers for taking care of us. We also thank our principal and vice-principals for giving us the opportunity to go for this trip.
