The Macquarie Fifth Grader Challenge
Macquarie Group
The Macquarie Fifth Grader Challenge
Story
TO DONATE, CLICK ON YOUR GROUP PAGE BELOW
Compete against your colleagues, other Macquarie groups and try to compete against fifth graders in The Macquarie Fifth Grader Challenge.
You’ll have 60 seconds to answer as many maths questions as possible, and can make as many attempts as you like. The competition will open online from 4.30pm on Thursday 15 and run for 24 hours. Two players from each group will also play off in a live battle from 5.00pm on Level 10, 50 Martin Place.
Funds raised will go towards UNICEF’s education programs in Zimbabwe. As part of Foundation Week’s special ‘2 for 1’ offer, funds raised by each Group for this event will be double matched (up to $5,000). Fundraising above $5,000 will be matched in the usual way under Macquarie’s staff support policy.
To get started, click on your group below and donate a minimum of $A30. Provide your full name and email, and 3P Learning will set you up with a Mathletics account. The two groups with the highest donations before the live battle will also benefit from a ‘math genius’, so be sure to donate and register early.
The winning groups for each challenge will have the opportunity to send a staff member on a 3P Learning-funded visit to a UNICEF education project in Zimbabwe departing in late February 2016. Winners have the ability to nominate an alternative Macquarie colleague if they are unable to attend.
