Tournament of the Minds

Tournament of the Minds

In 2020 this was extremely different from other years. This year we had to write, film and edit our own ToM video (the online super challenge) and post it on YouTube for the judges to decide what teams were able to get a place this year as we weren’t physically there for the judges to mark. The judges of Tournament of Minds hosted a socially distanced zoom meeting for all of the participants to spectate and watch the results of the ToM videos.

We had two teams enter the challenge this year:

Team 1 - Super Sensational Seven Savers:

Kayla, Finlay, Willow, Dakota, Alicia, Jemima, and Grace.

Team 2 - Year Six Boys STEM:

Liam, Alec, Oscar, Thomas, Sam and Will.

 

Both teams did exceedingly well this year, however the year five and six girls team were lucky enough to have received an honours award which is the equivalent to a second place. They chose the social science discipline this year for their project.

This article was written by Kayla and Alicia (Year 6).

Check out the video submission from the girls team this year below.
