What is the Maths Olympiad?

APSMO hosts the Maths Olympiad, a competition designed as an introduction for both primary and high school students to math concepts that are important in the futures. BrainBuild’s Holiday math programs cover topics presented in the Olympiad and other math competitions.

The competition is held five times throughout the schooling year during the months of May, June, July, August and September and aims to:

• Teach strategies and develop flexibility for problem solving
• Foster creativity and ingenuity, whilst improving intuition
• Stimulate enthusiasm and enjoyment of mathematics

The significance of the Maths Olympiad lies in its supplementary nature to student’s school education in addition to acting as a gauge for their current performance.

At BrainBuilder, our  Holiday Maths and Enrich Plus Programs are designed to encourage creative and critical thinking mindsets, essential for the Maths Olympiad. 

The Enrich Plus program allows our students to develop higher levels of thinking skills. We breakdown challenging math questions and provide students with powerful and logical strategies for problems. Students are then able to creatively apply themselves to the hardest of challenges with these tools and skill sets learned.
