The competition is open to students in Grades 1 to 12.  The written paper consists of 15 non-routine real world Mathematics problems that requires the use of critical thinking skills.

Awarding took place at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Center where students and their parents were treated to a sit-down dinner and awards presentation.  The Philippine team was led by Ms. Gina Guerra of the Mathematics Trainers’ Guild (MTG), Philippines.  MTG is the Country Partner of SEAMO in the Philippines.
