“The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in a person’s determination.” – Tommy Lasorda

Mangahigh Competition, focuses on participants scoring the most points by playing as many activities as possible.

Year 7- Year 11 students from St. John’s International School (SJIS) actively took part in this competition, which was held from 23rd September 2019 to 4th October 2019. The participants earned points and contributed to the school’s accumulated points by completing specifically assigned activities.

In Mangahigh, earning a Bronze medal is worth 1 point, a Silver medal is worth 2 points and a Gold medal is worth 3 points towards the school’s total score. Students can only earn one medal per activity; if a student has completed an activity and earned a Bronze medal, and replays that same activity to Bronze medal standard, they will not earn extra points. However, if they replay the activity and upgrade their medal from Bronze to Gold, they will earn and contribute 2 points towards their school’s total. Once a student has earned a Gold medal for an activity, there are no more points to be earned by replaying it, hence they have to move on to something new.

With multiple announcements of an attractive range of prizes for participating schools and students, our eager students and teachers pushed their limits to shine at their brightest. Each participant with 200 or more medal points is eligible for a Mangahigh gold medal, while those with 150-199 medal points will receive a certificate each. In addition to that, at the end of the competition, the top 3 schools on the leader board will receive a trophy.
