In 1991, two French teachers inspired by the Australian Mathematics Competition (AMC) decided to start a similar online competition in France. They called it the ‘Kangaroo’ to pay tribute to their Australian friends.
The competition was a big hit and has since been adopted around the world. It is now known as Kangourou sans Frontières: (Kangaroo without borders). it has grown to become one of the largest international mathematics competitions in the world, with more than 6 million participants annually.
In Australia, Kangourou sans Frontières (KSF) is an online only, multiple-choice competition for years 3–12, and may only be entered by schools also competing in the Australian Mathematics Competition.
All papers have 30 questions except Middle Primary, which has 24. The primary papers are 60 minutes, and the high school papers are 75 minutes.
There are free practice questions on our competition site to try.
