Surprise rewards

Marmara Chindamanee School English Program presented yesterday rewards to students who received medal at Math Olympiads and Cambridge exams. Stefan was one of them.

Quote from Chindamanee Facebook Page:

“Today, our amazing students got their just rewards! Chindamanee again showed why ‘ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE’ is part of our school motto. Our President rewarded students who received medals for math Olympiads and students who got amazing scores on the Cambridge exams with big gifts to start the term. This is to inspire everyone to continue working hard and strive for success. We believe in you.”

Success in New York

The 13-Year-old cancer warrior and survivor Stefan Quint did the next step and represented Chindamanee School English Program, Bangkok, Thailand, at this year’s Genius Olympiad in Oswego, New York. The science project, which he presented together with his school mate Serra Yay, was about the use of seaweed to produce bio-plastic with the target to decrease plastic waste.

Around 1200 students from 72 countries attended the 8th Genius Olympiad. This year 406 out of 897 science projects was selected for the finals at the State University of New York in Oswego. Stefan and Serra were two of the youngest participants at this Olympiad and they received honorable mention, which is a fantastic good result for these young students.

Stefan got well-known in 2017 for his achievements at several International Mathematics Olympiads while fighting against Hodgkin’s Lymphoma receiving chemo therapy and radiation treatment and through his amazing attitude. Today the young boy is in remission and he is trying to raise awareness about Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, a dangerous art of blood-cancer from which a lot of young children suffer.

 

Again a silver medal

Last Year Stefan attended SASMO 2017 between two Chemo Therapies and won a bronze medal. This year he is still under medical observation and missed many days at school, but he attended SASMO 2018 and got a silver medal.

He shows us again what we are able to do if we have the right spirit.

Next Olympiads may be SIMOC 2018 and IMOJ 2018, but it could be also the AMC (Australian Math Competition) 2018.

Year 2018 starts with Silver medal

Stefan Quint won last Saturday, 24. February, another silver medal at the International Math Challenge 2018.

The from the Ministry of Education recognized and supported Event was held at Pan Asia International School and King Mongkut’s Institute of Technology, Lat Krabang. 

Stefan became famous last year for winning several medals at different international Mathematics Olympics while he was in an much bigger fight against cancer.

Right now he has defeated the cancer, but is still under medical supervision and misses many lessons because of the regular doctor visits. Despite these bad conditions, he only missed a few points to the gold medal.

The inspirational story of this 13 year old Boy, who never gave up, teaches us:

Where there is a will, there is a way.

Back to Sport

 

After defeating Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and winning medals at Asian and International Math Olympiads Stefan is now also starting to do Sport.

First event he attend today is the U13 U15 International Football Tournament 2017. He was kicking the first Ball.
