Y3/4 Presentation of Learning

5th December 2023Rebecca Knowles

Don’t forget out Year 3/4 presentation of learning is on Thursday 7th December.

The children will share their learning and their website with you in a coffee afternoon style drop in between the times of 2pm – 3pm.

If you are attending, please arrive through the Ash Tree Road entrance at the hall. If your child has siblings in school, you will not be able to collect them until 3pm as normal so may want to arrive at the drop in a bit later.

Your child will only be in the hall if they have an adult present so if you are unable to attend but would like your child to share their learning with an adult of a friend, please arrange this with class teachers.

We look forward to seeing you soon!

Year 3/4 dodgeball! 🏆

1st December 2023Simon Gerrard

I would just like to give a massive shout out to our Year 3 and 4 pupils who represented Green Top in our Trust dodgeball tournament! What a super set of performances you put in! There were some really really tight games and I think it is fair to say that fun was had by all.

Most importantly, the children represented the school and themselves really well. Thank you to the adults who took our players to the tournament – it is really appreciated!

Is your child using the latest version of Timetables Rockstars?

19th November 2023Chris Mumby

I have been notified by TTRS (Maths Circle) that many children are using out-of-date versions of the game which may not have the new functionalities.

It’s important that they use the latest versions of the app and and website to ensure they receive the most secure, feature-rich and enjoyable experience of Times Tables Rock Stars. Some of the versions are so far behind that they’re missing out on key updates. 

Solution:

If using the website at home, please ask parents to visit play.ttrockstars.com/reset to load the latest version in their device’s browser. Otherwise please to update the Times Tables Rock Stars app from the app store.

Thanks,

Mr Mumby

Year 4: Multiplication Tables Check (MTC)

14th November 2023Rebecca Knowles

Year 4 parents, please find information regarding the MTC which the children will sit in June.

We are working really hard on times tables in school and will continue to do so throughout the year in the run up to the MTC.

You can help at home by encouraging your child to use their TTRockstars account regularly. Jamming and Soundcheck modes are particularly useful.
