Success in Economics Pursuits Competition

Posted on October 04, 2016

In the last week of Term Three, a team of Year 12 and 13 students won an Economics Pursuits Competition hosted by the Auckland CETA (Commerce and Economics Teacher's Association).

The competition featured seven rounds and over 100 questions to test the economics of five person student teams. The Macleans College team came away with a narrow win against St Kentigern College and were able to end the five year winning streak of Westlake Boys High School.

The team of Zachary Wong (Batten House), Benjamin Payne (Snell), Catherin Chen (Batten), Khorshed Tarapore (Mansfield) and Elisa Martin Moses (Hillary) were presented with a trophy and will receive Westfield Gift cards totalling $200.
