The International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) is a prestigious annual team competition for mathematically talented second level students representing their countries. Ireland has participated since 1988.

T Y Participants in the Irish Maths Olympiad

In June nearly 57,000 students sat the Junior Certificate Exams. The top 400 students who sat Higher Level Maths have been invited by the universities to attend Mathematics Enrichment classes which will lead into Olympiad training classes.

We are delighted to announce that 3 students from Santa Sabina received this invitation. They are Amy Clavin, Sinéad Dickson and Rachel O’Connor.

In addition, this year, for the first time, Round 1 of the Olympiad started with a maths contest in schools. Fifteen students sat the contest on Tuesday 14th November. The 4 top scorers have been selected to join the girls above in the Mathematics Enrichment classes in UCD in Jan 2012. They are Hannah Shortle, Niamh McCann, Aoife Bourke and Sarah Kingston.

Congratulations and well done to all the girls!
