Why a weekly maths challenge works

Maths improves through consistent, spaced practice — not the occasional cram session. A short, fresh paper every week builds a routine kids can actually keep, keeps core skills sharp, and gently stretches them with problem-solving questions beyond routine drills.

Because every paper is new and marked instantly, your child gets fast feedback on exactly which topics need another look — and you get a clear, honest picture of their progress across the term without setting a single worksheet yourself.

What's covered at each level

Questions are aligned to the Australian Curriculum and scale with the year level, spanning:

Great preparation for selective & scholarship tests

The habit of timed, weekly problem-solving is exactly what helps children walking into NSW Selective, Opportunity Class (OC), Victorian selective entry and private-school scholarship exams. It builds accuracy under time pressure and comfort with unfamiliar problems — the two things those tests really measure. When you're ready, browse upcoming exam dates in the KAOO exam directory.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Weekly Maths Challenge really free?

Yes. Creating a parent account, adding your child and sitting every weekly paper is completely free. There's no card required and no paid tier to unlock the challenge.

What year levels can take part?

Students from Kindergarten through Year 10. Each child sees questions matched to their own year level, and the leaderboard only ranks students within the same year.

How long does each weekly challenge take?

There's no rush — every child works at their own pace. Most students finish comfortably within the hour, and there's a generous 90-minute limit, after which the paper submits automatically so no one feels under pressure. Around 30 curriculum-aligned questions, marked instantly.

Does my child compete against everyone?
