What a wonderful 3 days we had this week getting to know each other in our new class. We danced, sang, played, practised our writing, built towers, tidied our outdoor space, cooled our feet and ate ice-lollies in our new classroom. Change can sometimes be scary but I was so proud of how the children coped as they immediately began to settle in to their new environment. I can’t wait to see you all again in the new school year!
Check out the gallery below to see some of our activities.
A huge thank you to all of our parents for not only choosing GreenTop for your children but for your support and engagement in all that we do throughout the year! We have had the best transition week and are more than ready for our time together after the summer! We are overwhelmed by the beautiful gifts and kind words of appreciation this week.

We enjoyed a foot spa this afternoon to keep us cool! We also made our own fans.
Today we enjoyed a class quiz. The children worked really well in their teams and wrote their answers on the quiz sheets. It was lots of fun!
Today our challenge was to build the tallest tower. we used art straws and masking tape. The children showed some great problem solving skills.
We had a lovely day today in our new classroom! We started the day in our new crew groups. In Crew Schön we learned about our new learning environment and then we played a team game called ‘Cross the River’. We had lots of fun!
Next we talked about our Class Norms and the behaviours we would like to see in our new class.
In the afternoon we created some beautiful artwork to display in our new classrooms.
The children were awesome! Well done Class 6. I wonder what adventures we will have tomorrow?
On Friday we held our Reception sports day in the glorious sunshine. The children did absolutely amazing running their races with effort, pride and a beaming support for their team mates and friends. A HUGE thank you to everyone that turned out in the heat to support our sports day event. Finally I am more than pleased to announce that CREW CARTER were the winning Crew! Well done to all involved! Here are the highlights to enjoy!
Please can children arrive at school tomorrow wearing their suncream and comfortable sports clothes. Please can children also bring a sunhat and water bottle.
WOW! WOW! WOW! what an amazing afternoon. A huge thank you to everyone that came, I’m sure you will all agree how amazing the children were with their singing as you all walked into their celebration. Thank you all for taking the time to come and enjoy the afternoon with the children, a massive thank you to those who also supported at our event: Real Donkeys (donkey rides), Mr Dan (entertainment), your plaice or mine(fish and chips) and Helen for the lovely ice creams.
