After 80 questions in 8 rounds that ranged from whether the UK had more sheep than NZ (they do!) to what you would be doing if you were indulging in entomophagy (eating insects) we have now found a champion team in the 2013 Big Biology Quiz. Twenty two teams from the Christchurch region competed to see who was king of biology trivia at year 12. This year was probably the closest fought yet, with six teams right in the hunt going into the last round. Coming out on top was Team Point Five from Lincoln High School (63 points) who pipped Hydrophobic Whales from Riccarton High School (60 points) after the defending champions had led all the way. Coming in third, to make it a great night for Lincoln High School, was Team One (59 points). Well done to all of the teams.

The winning team from Lincoln High School: Dacre, Lucian and Taylor with their teacher Mr Kent.
