The SATRO 2013 Problem Solving Challenge got off to a flying start this week with the opening heats at Blenheim High School, Epsom, on 4th February and St. Bede's School, Redhill, on 5th February. Some 30 teams - divided between Keystages 3, 4 and 5 - took part in each heat, and the challenge gave all participants a lot to think about in the 90 minutes allocated before the judges scored each of the solutions.
The Blenheim heat was generously sponsored by the Manly Trust, and Margaret Manly was on hand to present certificates to the teams with the highest scores in each group.
The winners and runners-up from each group will be invited to take part in the Challenge Final which takes place at Charterhouse School on Thursday 21st March. The highest score to date has been recorded by the Keystage 5 team from Caterham School at the Redhill event; watch this space to see if this changes after the next heat at Heathside School on Thursday 14th February!
