Upper School Students Achieve Success in Chemistry and Physics Competitions

The English School is pleased to recognise the achievements of its Upper School students in Chemistry and Physics competitions this year.

A group of Year 6 and Year 7 students took part in Round 1 of the UK Chemistry Olympiad (UKChO), a competition with more than 17,000 participants globally. Kyriakos Kantaris and Xinhui He achieved Gold awards, placing them among the top 8.5% of participants.

Further congratulations go to YouYou Tian and Nefeli Diaouri, who received Silver awards, and to Matthaios Ioannou and Christoforos Hadjinicolaou, who received Bronze awards. These results reflect the students’ strong subject knowledge, problem-solving ability, and willingness to engage with demanding scientific questions beyond the standard curriculum.

In Physics, ESL26 student Constantinos Christodoulides represented the school in the Pancyprian Physics Competition for final-year Lyceum students. After being selected in Phase A, he progressed to Phase B, where he achieved a Gold award. Constantinos will represent Cyprus this summer at the European Physics Olympiad (EuPhO) in Sweden and the International Physics Olympiad (IPhO) in Colombia.

Year 6 students Peigi Song and YouYou Tian also took part in the Physics Bowl. YouYou received a Silver award, while Peigi achieved a Gold award. Their results placed The English School among the top ten schools in the region.
