Tournament of Minds 2024: UPDATES

Five teams of Year 7 & 8 LEAP students will proudly represent our College in the Tournament of Minds Competition 2024 to be held at La Trobe University Bundoora on Saturday, 24th August.

The challenge includes a Long-Term Challenge, where students creatively communicate their solutions within predefined parameters like limited materials and complex criteria. Additionally, they'll participate in an unseen Spontaneous Challenge, requiring rapid interchange of ideas and strong group cooperation skills.

Parents and staff are welcome to be part of the audience for the Long Term Challenge. Unfortunately, there is no audience for the Spontaneous Challenge except for the judges as it is a Secret Challenge. Parents and Staff are welcome to attend and support our teams.
