Irish Junior Maths Competition 2026

Irish Junior Maths Competition 2026
The Irish Junior Maths Competition has been held for first year students around the country since 1994. It is organised by the Irish Maths Teacher Association (IMTA) and consists of students solving multiple-choice brainteasers within a forty-minute class period. This year, there were over 18,500 entries from 280 schools across the country.
First year students of St. Nathy’s College took part in the competition during the second week of January. Congratulations to Abdulrahman Arfan (1D) who scored 100% and was awarded a trophy from the IMTA. He is amongst only 49 other students in the country who scored full marks!
Julien Beliauskas (1E) and Gavin O’Gara (1E) came second and third place in the school and were awarded medals. Other top scorers in first year were:
Manahil Rehman (1B), Áine O’Connor (1E), Katie Cummins (1E), Marijus Mazonas (1D), Aidan Flaherty (1E), Chloe Madden (1E), Jozef Mato (1E) and Emilie Partrick-Winstanley (1C).
Well done to them! We wish all of our first year students continued success in their study of Mathematics.
