The Event
Street Maths Day
Street Maths Day is held in safe, open-air spaces where students solve mathematical tasks directly on the ground using chalk and simple tools.
The event moves mathematics outside the classroom, making learning practical, interactive, and engaging.
Street Maths at your Schools
Schools select the age groups that will participate.
Students work through clear, age-appropriate mathematical challenges prepared and printed on A3 sheets.
Activities focus on applying concepts, solving problems, and using movement and spatial awareness.
Organisation & Supervision
The event is organised by RSI in close coordination with the participating school. Designated areas are prepared in advance to ensure clear, safe spaces for each class and student. Students wear the official Street Maths T-shirt with jeans and white trainers, while teachers and supervisors provide guidance throughout the activities. Media coverage is planned and coordinated in collaboration with the RSI media team.
