Sticky Faces Joins the Maths Champions Programme! 🧮

We’re excited to announce that Sticky Faces Nursery is now part of the Maths Champions Programme, run by the NDNA and funded by the Department for Education (DfE)! This fantastic initiative is designed to boost early maths skills, ensuring every child develops a strong foundation in numeracy through fun, engaging, and meaningful experiences.

By joining this programme, our practitioners will receive expert training and resources to enhance how we introduce mathematical concepts through play. From exploring shapes, patterns, and problem-solving to developing a deep understanding of numbers, we’ll be embedding maths into everyday activities in creative and exciting ways!

At Sticky Faces, we believe that maths is everywhere—in the stories we read, the buildings we see, the games we play, and even in snack time! 🧮✨ Through the Maths Champions Programme, we’re committed to making numeracy a natural and enjoyable part of your child’s learning journey, helping to build confidence, curiosity, and a love for numbers.
