Sixteen King David Senior Primary School Linksfield students got through to the final round of the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits) Mathematics Competition last month, which aims to promote maths at all levels.
They were among 70 from the school who voluntarily entered the competition. They joined 3 300 entrants from Grade 4 to university level across nine provinces, including entrants from a school in Botswana.
Special mention goes to Eitan Greenblatt for ranking seventh in Gauteng in the upper primary division.
King David Linksfield also performed extremely well in the middle primary (Grades 4 and 5) category, coming fourth in Gauteng, and fourth overall; and in the upper primary category (Grades 6 and 7), coming third in Gauteng, and fourth overall.
