IPEKA Students Step Into the World Mathematics Invitational (WMI)
Many students shy away from numbers. However, mathematics is more than just homework for some students. It’s a challenge they genuinely enjoy. For these learners, equations are puzzles, and competitions are exciting opportunities to grow, solve, and connect. That passion recently led 35 students from IPEKA Christian School to qualify for the Grand Final of the World Mathematics Invitational (WMI), a global event to be held in Bangkok, Thailand, on July 25–29, 2025.
Representing IPEKA Christian School, these students have demonstrated outstanding problem-solving skills and a deep interest in mathematics. Therefore earning them well-deserved spots on the international stage.
