Friday 2 Feb 24NSPCC Number Day 2024 NSPCC Number Day - Friday 2nd February • We are having a fun day of maths activities and we will be taking part in Dress up for Digits. Pupils are asked to wear an item of clothing with a number on it. This can include anything with a number on, for example: a favourite sports top or cap with a number, a top with a date on, something more creative (design a unique t-shirt, hat or even become a human-sized calculator or dice, use an old t-shirt and paint/draw a number on etc). If you are struggling for ideas for dressing up, search NSPCC Number Day costume ideas on Google. • To help raise money for the NSPCC, we are asking for donations, and we’d love everyone in the school to take part in this special event. If you are struggling for ideas for dressing up, just search NSPCC Number Day costume ideas. Collection buckets will be on the gates for you to send in a donation to support NSPCC’s work. Read more
