Number Day fun

Dear Editor

On February 4, schools will come together for a day filled with fun educational maths activities, as part of the NSPCC’s Number Day.

Number Day is a nationwide maths-themed fundraising event that helps raise money to support the NSPCC.

Every pound raised will add up to help keep children safe.

It is free for any school to sign up and once a school has registered, the NSPCC will send it everything it needs to make its Number Day a success.

Schools will be sent tips and ideas on how to fundraise, including games and activities; resources to help promote Number Day; information on keeping children safe from harm; and online safety quizzes that can be used with pupils of all ages.

After the challenges of the past 18 months and the disruption that children have faced, we hope it will be a day of fun to look forward to.

To take part, all you need to do is visit the NSPCC’s website. Paul Cockram, NSPCC
