Pi Day, math’s most popular day of the year, is celebrated by students around the world on March 14. To bring families into the fun, Mathnasium Learning Centres, an internationally recognized franchise with more than 1,200 math learning centres worldwide, is partnering with Pizza Pizza, Canada’s leading pizza brand. Together, the two are serving up a Pi Day celebration where the only thing better than learning math is enjoying a slice of pizza “pi.”
“We had so much fun bringing math and pizza together for Pi Day last year that partnering with Pizza Pizza again was a no-brainer,” said Tyler Sgro, CEO of Mathnasium Learning Centres. “Kids love the idea of celebrating math with pizza, and when learning feels fun and familiar, confidence follows. That’s what Pi Day is all about for us.”

Free, Family-Friendly Learning Events
To celebrate Pi Day, select Mathnasium Learning Centres will host complimentary, community-wide celebrations on March 14. Families can enjoy themed treats, prize giveaways, and math-based interactive activity stations. Through Pi-inspired visual challenges, memory games, and word searches, children will explore key concepts in a fun, approachable, and confidence-building way.
“Helping students build confidence and understanding in math is at the heart of what we do at Mathnasium,” added Sgro. “Making space throughout the year for special, engaging moments like these helps bring learning to life and supports kids in a really meaningful way.”
