Cambridge Chemistry Challenge 2025: Celebrating Student Success
We are pleased to share the excellent results our students achieved in this year's Cambridge Chemistry Challenge. This annual competition, developed by experienced teachers and university chemists, is designed to be accessible to Year 12 students while also encouraging them to explore chemistry concepts beyond the standard syllabus, fostering a university-level approach to the subject.Strong Performance Across the Cohort Of the 96 students who participated, 57 received awards, demonstrating their commitment and understanding of advanced chemical principles. The awards were distributed as follows:
- Roentgenium: 1
- Gold: 7
- Silver: 12
- Copper: 37
Notable Achievements
A special commendation goes to Adi for earning the Roentgenium Award. This award is given to students in the top 0.5% of the competition and includes an invitation to a residential camp at Cambridge. Adi will attend a special course at the University Chemical Laboratory in St Catharine's College, Cambridge,over the summer break. This experience will offer him an opportunity to engage with peers and further develop his chemistry skills. Additionally, we recognize Pavan Y, a Year 10 student, who participated in the challenge and achieved a Silver award. His initiative and performance at his age are particularly noteworthy.
Congratulations to all students who took part in the Cambridge Chemistry Challenge.Their participation reflects their dedication to the subject.
