Maths

At Holly Spring Infant & Nursery School we aim to develop and nurture our children, so that they become confident mathematicians for the future. We want them to know and understand the purpose, relevance and importance of mathematics in everyday life.

We want every child to be confident in using numbers in order for them to make a valued contribution for themselves, the wider community and the world around them.

Mathematics in the Foundation Stage is based on the Early Years Foundation Stage statutory framework and in KS1 on the ‘new’ 2014 Mathematics Curriculum.

Maths at Holly Spring

The children have had a fantastic time exploring the different strands of the maths curriculum during maths week. They worked with Jackson from ascreatives, exploring maths outdoors as well as visiting other classrooms this week. They have collaborated, persevered and problem solved.

IT'S MATHS WEEK!! - 2017

 

The Happy Puzzle Company was such a success last year, we asked them to come again. The children worked together to complete a number of puzzles. Some of the puzzles proved to be very tricky! The children had to persevere, manage distractions and use their collaboration skills.  It was a really enjoyable day.
