Here volunteers are distributing papers in Room #104 of the Angus Building, whose capacity had been beefed up to seat 300 people. The overflow was accommodated in Room #215. |
Since the first round was delayed by an hour, so was the second. The refreshment break finally came at 3:40 pm. Some parents, like those shown here, helped with the distribution. We hope they kept a cookie for themselves. |

The markers had to correct 4 sheets per student, determine the top 10 in each division, and stamp the certificates of the top 25%. They worked furiously but were not able to finish in the allotted time, thus causing a further delay. |
Finally everything was ready for the Countdown Round, an exciting spectacle, in which the ten kids with the highest written scores in each division duell it out orally for first, second, and third place.
The two divisions are in separate rooms; spectators
are allowed as long as they can be quiet. |
