OVERVIEW OF HSF

The Have Sum Fun Competition is an exciting mathematics initiative that uses a quiz-night format. Teams of six students race against the clock to solve four intense rounds of eight challenging problems. Teams can only have a maximum of three students of the higher year level; e.g., in the Year 7 to 8 competition only three Year 8s are allowed in the team.
There is a school trophy for the winning team, individual trophies for the winning team members, and prizes for members of the three runner-up teams with place-getter certificates for all these six team members. All other students receive participation certificates. Schools may enter multiple teams per year level, excluding the Great Southern competition. For the Great Southern competition if you wish to enter more than two teams in a year level please contact us at reception@mawa.edu.au.
