NSPCC Number Day 2022
This year, for NSPCC Number Day, all of our pupils had the opportunity to come dressed in anything to do with the numbers. We were just amazed by the fantastic outfits that we saw. During the day, everyone took part in different mathematics challenge and learned about the important work the NSPCC do. The message of, 'Speak out. Stay safe.' was shared. In class, we looked at what pupils could do to help keep themselves, and others, safe and what they could do if they felt unsafe.
NSPCC Number Day Year 6
In Year 6, we started off the day by watching the virtual assembly by the NSPCC. This showed us how to speak out so we could keep safe. We considered who we have around us to keep us safe and who we could talk to. In mathematics, we carried out different activities including 'The Mystery of the Olympic Ringer' which involved carrying out different maths challenges. We also took part in the NSPCC/TTRockstars challenge and finished a very respectable 707 out of out of 60242 classes who took part (total class score).
