St. Peter’s SHS has made it to the quarterfinal stage of the 2021 National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ) after recording a landslide victory over the two Notre Dame schools.
Right from the first round of the contest, which was held on Monday, the ‘PERSCO’ boys maintained their supreme dominance over Notre Dame Seminary and Notre Dame Girls’ with outstanding brilliance.

The Eastern region champions won the GOIL Riddle Bonanza after getting three riddles right for a total sum of GH¢1,200.
PERSCO kills two “birds” with one stone as they send the two Notre Dames to the regional level.
