Count Down To Number Day

Get your school registered and help raise money to help NSPCC protect children

The NSPCC’s Number Day is back and making it count for children on 5 December 2014, encouraging and celebrating learning through maths whilst raising money to end cruelty to children across South London.

Number Day helps primary and secondary school teachers deliver inspiring and interactive maths lessons alongside fundraising activities. Some of the resources have been created in partnership with Oxford University Press and will include number crunching favourites like ‘Be the Boss’ and updated versions of ‘Who Wants to be a Mathionnaire?’ in addition to new activities, which this year include early years.

Pupils of all ages and abilities can participate in Number Day whether their strength is tackling tangents and fathoming fractions or showcasing their creative side with ‘Dress up for Digits.’

NSPCC Head of Schools Fundraising, Ginny Donnelly, said:
“Number Day is a great way for children to engage with maths and support a good cause whilst having fun. This year we are excited to be introducing some new Oxford University Press activities, starting from early years through to key stage 4 so why not sign up today?”

By taking part in Number Day 2014 and raising money, schools will be helping the NSPCC to protect children all year round through its projects and services including ChildLine – the UK’s free, confidential 24-hour helpline and online service for children and young people.
