Tournament of Towns and Math. Kangaroo at Toronto

Math Kangaroo 2007

History


The Contest-Game "Math Kangaroo" was originated in France in 1991 and quickly became famous in Europe. Several years later the International Association "Kangourou sans frontières" had been founded. With each passing year the popularity of the competition continues to grow attracting new cities and new countries.

In October 2006, Canada became a member of the International Association "Kangourou sans frontières". Valeria Pandelieva, mathematician and educator from Ottawa, was chosen to be the President of the Math Kangaroo Association in Canada.

The first time in Toronto the contest was conducted a year ago. It got an enthusiastic response from students, their parents and teachers. Toronto participants performed very well. Seventeen Toronto participants got awards for being the best in Canada. Among them were three students with perfect scores: Dimitri Dziabenko (DMCI), Yi Song (DMCI), and Yue Chen (Dr. Norman Bethune Collegiate Institute).

This year the Kangaroo will be conducted in five Canadian cities: Ottawa, Toronto, Edmonton, St. John's and Moncton.
