Quiz competitions are always interesting and informative, which provide excitement among the students and also make them aware of current affairs. Sto. Nino Elementary School, headed by the school Principal, Dr. Marlon S. Marquez, and Mrs. Celia Alcalde, school’s Mathematics Coordinator, successfully conducted the 2019 District Mathematics Quiz Bee in the school’s covered court on September 14, 2019. The participants were grade four to six pupils from fifteen different schools of San Mateo, Rizal.
Rules and regulations of the quiz were explained at the beginning. It was an interesting three-round competition, including objective questions with option round which engaged the pupils for an hour. The pupils showcased their brilliance by rapidly answering the questions. Though some of the questions were very tricky and difficult, the participants tried to answer them with confidence. The questions put forth to the participants were intriguing, exciting and made the audience go ‘Aah!’ and clap when participants answered correctly.
Sto. Nino Elementary School encourages such positive competitions and hopes to bring out the best in all pupils through such competitive events, while ensuring that the children learn through all possible ways not just through books and classroom teaching.
