Pupils make numbers count

Pupils and teachers alike at Mount St Michael's Primary School have enjoyed going head to head in fun and engaging Maths activities.

Dressed to impress at their numeracy event in aid of NSPCC were these Mount St Michael PS pupis. (Pictures kindly submitted).

The children from Nursery to Primary Seven took part in a ‘Dress Up For Digits’ event on Friday, February 2, and made a donation to wear a fancy dress costume with a number on it.

The teachers and learning assistants dressed up as 101 Dalmatians while principal, Mrs Carville appeared as Cruella de Vil!

The teachers also planned fun activities for the children related to number. Their aim of the event - to help the NSPCC to raise vital funds to protect children through its projects and services, including Childline – the UK’s free, confidential 24-hour helpline and online service for children and young people.
