Second consecutive win for MPC in Math Alympiade

SOUTH REWARD--A team of Milton Peters College students has topped the Math Alympiade in the Netherlands to bring home the title of cum laude for the second consecutive year.

The group consisted of VWO V students Daron Brison, Adonis Jacob, and Sabrina Carty, and VWO IV student Ginonne Secerina. They were informed via an online Skype call with the organisers in the Netherlands that they were the overall winners out of 18 schools from various countries that participated in the competition.

The group travelled to Garderen, Arnhem, in the Netherlands at the beginning of March to compete. The final was held March 11-12. VWO/HAVO math teacher Iwan Blankendal accompanied the group.

He took the opportunity to thank this year's sponsors that had made it possible for the students to travel to the Netherlands: Van Dorp, Krebbers, NAGICO Insurances, PricewaterhouseCoopers, UTS, Liccom, Ralph Richardson, Windward Electrical Company, Windward Islands Bike, Checkmate Security, Bureau Telecommunications and Post, Ranger Security, Atrium, the Beentges family, and Philipsburg Broadcasting.

Blankendal also thanked last year's main sponsors TelEm Group of Companies and former education commissioner William Marlin.
