On Friday 16 October, we arrived at school early in the morning to compete in the Australian National Future Problem Solving (FPS) National Finals. 

On the day we had to evaluate our problem to find sixteen issues with it. Then we found solutions, picked our top eight solutions and assessed them with criteria. We got our action plan and wrote it out as a presentation. We even got to act it out!

The whole experience was interesting and exciting. Even though we’ve had to do most of our work offsite, FPS has been an amazing experience. Throughout the year, we made new friends, and acquired new knowledge. We all have enjoyed participating in the nationals this year and had lots of fun!
