Our Year 1 girls competed in Farmathon 2023, winning top places across four challenge statements surrounding food sustainability and entrepreneurship.

Our Year 1 girls participated in the Farmathon Inter-School Competition 2023 from 12 May to 21 July 2023. Teams from various schools competed for the best business proposals to the challenge statements and RGS achieved the following results:

Organised by Methodist Girls’ School and Nanyang Girls’ High School, the Farmathon 2023 competition aimed to bring together students who are passionate about food and sustainability, and who possess a keenness for entrepreneurship and business pitching. The challenge statements revolved around food sustainability and security.
