MBNA Tackling Numbers Tag Rugby tournament

Pitmaston School won the MBNA Tackling Numbers Tag Rugby tournament at Sixways last Thursday after an exciting tournament in the indoor centre.

Tackling Numbers is an interactive numeracy programme for young children, developed and delivered by Premiership Rugby in partnership with MBNA.

The five week programme aims to teach 8-9 year olds the importance of number skills in everyday life. The rugby-themed programme is delivered in schools through both classroom sessions and practical number-based rugby games.

This innovative and engaging programme makes learning about numbers fun, exciting and rewarding.  It also inspires children to both improve their numeracy skills and physical health.
