第八届《九章算术》数学竞赛开始报名
为了给3—10年级数学爱好者创造更好的成长环境，泓河中文学校将在大滑铁卢地区举办“第八届《九章算术》数学竞赛”，本次竞赛由滑铁卢大学孔子学院协办并赞助，并由加拿大数学学会赞助。该竞赛以中国古代著名数学经典著作《九章算术》命名，可以看作是明年春季加拿大数学竞赛的热身赛，即3年级 Thales竞赛, 4年级Byron-Germain竞赛, 5年级Fibonacci竞赛, 6年级Pythagoras竞赛, 7、8年级Gauss竞赛, 9年级Pascal竞赛，10年级Cayley竞赛的热身赛，使参赛学生有机会得到实战锻炼。
2008-2014年期间的七届竞赛共有516人次参赛，这些参赛学生和我校奥数班、数学俱乐部学生中已有242人次登上各类其他加拿大数学竞赛的荣誉榜，其中包括50人次取得满分、金奖或金牌、银牌、铜牌的好成绩。
本次竞赛将在11月21日下午 2：30-4：00举行，无参赛费，考题及答卷使用英语，出题风格与上述加拿大竞赛类似，答卷时间为一小时十五分钟。按参赛学生年级分五组分别评奖（3、4年级学生将分开评奖），优胜者将获得优胜证书和奖品以资鼓励。凡2000-2007年出生的本地区学生均可参赛（外地适龄学生如可自行解决来考场的交通，亦可参赛）。参赛学生请在10月31日前通过电子邮件报名。请下载报名表，填好后用email附件发至office@grandriverchineseschool.com 。竞赛的其他细节将在赛前用 email通知符合参赛资格的报名学生。

Feel free to forward the following math contest announcement to students who are interested in math.
The 8th Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art Contest (NCC15)
Co-organized and sponsored by Confucius Institute at the University of Waterloo, and sponsored by Canadian Mathematical Society, Grand River Chinese School will host "The 8th Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art Contest (NCC15)" on Nov. 21, 2015, 2:30pm to 4:00pm. Students achieving outstanding results in the contest will receive awards and certificates in 5 separate age groups (winners of grade 3 and grade 4 will be separately awarded).
NCC15 is a math contest designed for students of Grades 3 to 10 as a warm-up for the Canadian Math Contests (Thales Contest for Grade 3, Byron-Germain Contest for Grade 4, Fibonacci Contest for Grade 5, Pythagoras Contest for Grade 6, Gauss Contest for Grades 7 and 8, Pascal Contest for Grade 9, and Cayley Contest for Grade 10). The NCC is named after the Chinese ancient classic book "The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine_Chapters_on_the_Mathematical_Art).
During 2008 to 2014, NCC has tested 516 participants, many of them further wrote various Canadian math contests, and have been listed on honour rolls of those contests for 242 times including 50 times of golden standards, gold, silver and bronze medals, and perfect scores.
Participating in NCC15 is free. Local students who were born in 2000 to 2007 are eligible. Students from other areas may also attend if they are able to travel to Waterloo for the contest. To sign up for this contest, you need to download the registration form, and email the filled form as attachment to office@grandriverchineseschool.com by Oct. 31. Other details will be notified to eligible students by email.
Candidates who plan to write the contest are recommended to download and read the following two documents:
