πŸš€πŸ€– Yesterday, our incredible Tournament of Minds (TOM) team travelled to Port Macquarie to present their STEM challenge and take on a spontaneous challenge in front of a panel of judges! 🌟

Killara, Louis, Emerson, Ainslie, Ariana, Kodie, and Maddi worked together brilliantly, showing creativity, problem-solving, and top-notch sportsmanship. They represented our school with pride and dedication! πŸ‘πŸ’‘πŸ’ͺ

Although the team didn’t progress to the next level, it was a valuable and fun experience for everyone. We’re so proud of their enthusiasm and commitment throughout their Tournament of Minds journey!

Stay tunedβ€”the TOM team will share their STEM performance with the whole school community at an upcoming assembly! πŸŽ­πŸŽ‰
