The ICAS Science Competition was held in late May and two hundred and thirty-nine students took the test appropriate for their year level. The test is a one hour test made up of forty-five multiple choice-style questions. It tests students’ skills and knowledge in Science and provides teachers with an insight into their students’ understanding of Science and the world around them.

Two students, Ryan Adams and Ciaran Carroll, received High Distinction grades and they are in the top 1% of students in NZ and the Pacific region who sat the ICAS test. Twenty-six students gained a Distinction grade this year and they are in the top 2-3% of all students who sat the same test. Eighty-five students got credit or merit grades. Congratulations should go to all the students who chose to sit the test and for those who excelled in this Science Competition.
