Next week, the children in Years 1 & 2 will be making box model houses to support their learning about the Great Fire of London. If you have any suitable boxes at home please can you send one into school with your child. Boxes from everyday kitchen goods are ideal, such as cereal and tea bag boxes.
Thank you for your continued support with our learning, The KS1 team x
I really hope that everyone loved our superhero themed day! The children were testing their strength, agility, co-ordination, shooting skills and balance today with our outside activities that were set up for our super heroes. There are more photos that will be shared but here is a quick video of some of the fun!
Have a lovely weekend

This afternoon, we held our first KS1 family learning event of the year. Thank you to all of the parents/carers who were able to join us to take part in some superhero skill based activities – water pistol shoot-out, archery and super strength tyre flipping to name just a few! We look forward to welcoming you into school again soon and hope you enjoyed our fun afternoon.
This morning, the children in KS1 were granted a meeting with Susan Durant our local Mayor where they found out all about her fantastic work in the community as well as the work of the local food bank. The children asked lots of questions about Susan’s work and experiences and were able to share the fabulous community work they have been getting up to these last two weeks.
I wonder if we have any future mayors in Year 1?
Well done to Mila-Rose, Hollie and Oscar who have all shown great learning attitudes today and were rewarded with our postcards.
Great job guys!
To celebrate National Read a Book Day class 6 had a special story time. A huge thanks to Liam, one of our Learning Councillors who popped in to read us a story in Crew this afternoon. The children loved it Liam and you read beautifully. Well done!
Apologies to those parents who could not access the menus. We are looking into the issue. In the meantime here is a screenshot of each year group’s menu.
Children should be able to access these menus at any time from the KS1 Extended Study section in the ‘Children’ drop down menu on the front page of the blog if they are logged on with their own Green Top email address.
Please let me know if you have any more problems

Please have a look at what year 1 and 2 will be learning about this term. We have a very exciting few months ahead! You can access this document through the ‘children’ tab and then by clicking on the ‘Key stage 1 extended study’ menu.
If you have any questions, please ask a class teacher.
Thanks, Mrs Shaw
I can’t begin to tell you how proud I am of everyone in class 6 today as they performed a small act of kindness in our community by helping to pack shopping bags in our local Sainsbury’s store. The children walked sensibly in the beautiful late summer sunshine through Thorne, pointing out items of rubbish that could be recycled as they went. They were super polite to the shoppers who asked them to explain the reason they were there and the resounding answer was ‘TO BE KIND AND HELPFUL!’
A massive thank-you to all the parents who turned up to shop so the children had something to pack and to the wonderful staff at Sainsbury’s for allowing us to experience first-hand how lovely it feels to be able to help others when we can.
