Today the children in reception showed great respect as they circled up to honour a 2 minutes silence for our heroes of today and of days gone by. The children shared their understanding of remembrance day and took part in crafts, poppy counting and this inspired some to create their own artwork
Class 4 had so much fun on Friday for our Faith day. We learned all about Hinduism with a focus on the festival Diwali. We enjoyed making Diva lamps and Rangoli patterns throughout the day.
This week the children in reception have been learning about Hinduism. On Friday our learning from the week was brought together for the children to have a fun faith day. The children enjoyed learning about the story of Rama and Sita, created Rangoli patterns, made beautiful decorations and made some wonderful Diva lamps. Here are some of our snapshots!
As part of Anti Bullying Week, on Tuesday 12th November we will be celebrating Odd Socks Day. This is to show it’s okay to be different to and to raise the awareness of bullying! So dig out your favourite pairs as we can’t wait to see your odd socks!
This week the children have all received a reading book. It is the expectation that the children will read their book at home and this is recorded in the yellow reading record that came in their reading pack. This will support the children in their phonics skills and help to improve their reading fluency.
Books will be changed on a Tuesday and a Friday as long as it is evident in their reading record that they have read the book. If you need any support with anything reading please ask a member of the F2 Team.
Enjoy!
EYFS RED CARPET EVENT AND FILM PREMIERE
Next week, on Wednesday 13th November the EYFS children would like to invite their grown-ups (maximum 2 per child) to their presentation of learning for our Expedition ‘How do we show we care?’.
The Ash Tree Road entrance will be open from 1.45 pm for grown-ups to get refreshments before the children come through. Children will then come to the hall to share their learning with you. The children cannot wait for you to see all their hard work!
Please can children come to school in their smart/party clothes.
Well done to these children for being our HOWL point winners and Crew Champions this week.
Keep up the great work guys!

As part of our expedition learning we were invited into DRI to see Katie the Matron and the wonderful work and environment the staff there provide for their patients. Vincent and Elodie represented the school and I am so proud of them for their excellent behaviour and awesome thoughts and suggestions on how to improve the children’s ward. Elodie thought more princesses and phonics sounds were needed and Vincent wanted to see more superhero’s and dinosaurs. Great suggestions guys!
We are looking forward to being able to donate the money raised this term to the children’s ward in developing their much needed parents room.
On Wednesday we had such a fabulous time doing our sponsored walk to raise funds for DRI. The children were dressed as Superheroes. . . with kindness being our superpower of the day!
It was a bit soggy and a bit chilly but the children did not let this put them off! Well done everyone for being Greentop superheroes!!
Mrs Wallace
A huge thank you to everyone who dressed their child up for our ‘kindness is our superpower’ day. The children did us proud and braved the rain to complete their sponsored walk challenge.
Sponsor money is due Friday 25th October to your child’s class teacher. Many thanks for you support.
