Kangourou sans Frontières

The KSF will occur in Week 9, on the Tuesday (26/03)24). Forms have been made available for students in grade 3-6. Well done for those who have already filled these in and paid the small cost. The KSF is available for participation from any student from grades 3-6. Forms need to be handed to classroom teachers ASAP.

Inspired by the AMT’s Australian Mathematics Competition, Kangourou sans Frontières (KSF) is now the largest maths competitions in the world, with more than 6 million participants each year. Held in March, the KSF is a great opportunity for students to experience maths in a competition environment prior to the AMC in August.
