Bebras Australia Computational Thinking Challenge

The Bebras Challenge is an international student computational thinking challenge held twice a year.

The Bebras Australia Computational Thinking Challenge, is an interactive way to teach students computational thinking and employability skills such as collaboration and problem solving. Highlighting foundational skills such as pattern recognition and algorithms — the challenge is free to join and Australian curriculum-aligned.

Round one of the Bebras Challenge 2020 will run from Monday, 9 March - Monday, 23 March 2020. We have extended the challenge period slightly to accommodate public holidays in different states and ensure all participants have enough time to complete the challenge.
