From Ideas to Action SAC Students Compete at the Tournament of Minds State Final
On Sunday, seven Year 9 and 10 students, represented SAC at the Tournament of Minds State Final. Tournament of Minds is a nationwide competition where teams of students work together to solve open-ended challenges that draw on creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration. The competition day involves presenting a prepared Long-Term Challenge as a 10-minute performance, as well as participating in an unseen Spontaneous Challenge.
Over the course of Term 3, Aria, Maya, Angelique, Hayley, Lili, Lucy, and Portia, supported by mentor Yenuli, diligently prepared for this competition through lunchtime trainings, afternoon rehearsals, and weekend sessions. Competing against a strong field of teams from across South Australia, they placed 4th in their category, an outstanding accomplishment and a testament to their hard work and dedication.
“Tournament of Minds was an eye-opening experience that challenged us to think outside of the box and push ourselves to our creative limits. This experience has led us to meet new people forming new connections with other like-minded peers. Plus, the pizza nights were pretty fun!” – Portia and Maya
