About the competition
Kangourou sans Frontières (KSF), delivered in Australia by the Australian Maths Trust, is an international mathematics competition featuring engaging, non-routine multiple-choice problems similar in style to the Australian Mathematics Competition (AMC). Held in March, KSF provides valuable preparation for the AMC in August and helps schools identify high-achieving students earlier in the year, including those whose mathematical potential may not have been recognised through traditional testing.
