JIS students for SEA Maths contest

Members of the JIS team.

Six students from Jerudong International School (JIS) yesterday flew to Phuket in Thailand to participate in the fifth annual Southeast Asia Mathematics Competition to be held at Dulwich College.

JIS is the only school from Brunei to send a team, so these students will be the sole representatives of Brunei.

There are thirty-eight participating teams from six different countries, namely, Brunei, Hong Kong, Singapore, China, Malaysia and Thailand.

The students will compete in teams of three and answer a series of questions in both individual and team rounds.

The questions are designed to challenge the students - and often the teachers - in all aspects of Mathematics.

The winners will be awarded the coveted Warry Cup.
