A standout moment came during the codebreaking treasure hunt, where BIS Hanoi's two senior teams secured first and second-place finishes, surpassing all other participating teams. Additionally, one of the junior teams impressed the judges with their ingenious design in the construction challenge, although gravity ultimately foiled their pendulum concept.
Following a lunch break, the eagerly anticipated results were announced, starting with the junior competition. One team, comprised of Anh Khoa, Taehoo, Minji, Claire, and Yeonjae, achieved a remarkable joint third-place finish. The second team, consisting of Olivia, Srinjoy, Kaden, Hayden, and Yuna, outperformed their peers, securing an outstanding second place. The senior competition also witnessed podium success, with Suyeon, Dahyun, Nahyeon, Sungwon, and Hyeonchan earning a well-deserved bronze medal. These achievements culminated in the overall standings for both the junior and senior competitions. In a tightly contested battle, BIS Hanoi emerged as the victors, securing the coveted gold medal for the second consecutive year, with just one point separating them from the runners-up.
The collective effort and dedication of Gia Khanh, Ji Ho, Seojung, Taeyeon, and Yujin were instrumental in this hard-fought victory. We extend our gratitude to Olympia School for hosting a remarkable event and are immensely proud of our BIS Hanoi students who showcased their talents throughout the day. With hopes of a hat-trick victory, let us look forward to next year's competition!
