Final Results and the Prizegiving

Well, it has been a long time, and we are, as always, amazed at your dedication. This year's Challenge has been particularly tough, with lots of traps for the unwary and you had to think hard to avoid them. Congratulations to all of you. The Honours Board has been updated and we can now announce the winners of this year's main prizes: The GCHQ Prize of £1,000 goes to Robert Lasenby of Hills Road Sixth Form College The IBM Prize (a Thinkpad laptop) goes to Josh Williams (the Firey Squirrel) of Richard Lander School The Trinity College Cambridge Prize of £700 is shared by Team Hrmph, that is Jonathan Dias and Nicholas Holliday of The London Oratory School. The prizes will be awarded at the ceremony at Bletchley Park on April 27th 2007, we hope to see some of you there. This year the Prizegiving is being sponsored by the British Computer Society and we have a limited number of tickets to give away to schools for this event. It will be a funfilled afternoon including a programme of lectures, a tour and the presentation of prizes. We are delighted that Simon Singh, one of Britain's most popular science writers has agreed to speak, as has Boris Johnson, a politician well known for his appearances on Have I Got News for You. If you wish to attend please ask your school to contact us by email (This email address is being protected from spambots.
