A big thanks to the Friends of Green Top who raised enough money for us to have a little festive treat this afternoon of the Snow White panto coming in to school.

Magnificent Maths
We have has so much fun today with our maths learning! This week we have explored our 2D shapes especially circles and triangles and today we consolidated our learning from this week. We especially enjoyed painting the shapes we knew using Kandinsky as our inspiration. I was so proud of how well the children achieved their targets and showed me their learning in any way they wanted – painting abstract pictures, making shape pictures or even drawing their own pictures using different shapes.
