We had a lovely time at the book fair this morning and enjoyed looking through the books and shared some of the stories. It was great to see everyone enjoying reading!!

Learning Council – D Day Shoutout!
Last Thursday, Learning Council was invited to be apart of the D Day service in Thorne Memorial Park. They stood and listened carefully and respectfully and then confidently stood and recited a D Day poem along with children from other primary schools from Thorne and Moorends.
It was an honour to go along and be a part of such a special occasion to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the D Day landings and I was super proud of all the children!
Y5 Debate
The children in Year 5 planned and delivered a debate linked to our book ‘Pig heart boy’. The children worked incredibly hard to prepare structured and well thought out questions and showed respect when providing their responding arguments…a fantastic effort!
Year 5 Spellings – w.c. 3/6/24
Here are the spellings that we have been learning about this week:
Year 5: D -Day Assembly with the Royal British Legion
Today, Year 5 enjoyed an assembly from Mick at the Royal British Legion. We learned all about the D-Day landings and why they are so important to our history, as well as finding out about the different ways in which the 80th Anniversary of D-Day will be celebrated tomorrow. Mick is Thorne’s Town Crier and he gave us a sneak preview of the important announcement that he will be making tomorrow morning at 8am to kick-start the celebrations (which will take place in Memorial Park throughout the day).
Year 5 – First Aid Workshop
Yesterday, we completed a basic first aid workshop. I was so impressed with the knowledge that the children already had and how they were able to confidently build on their knowledge. It was great to see all the children actively taking part with the practical demonstrations and discussion.
Well done everyone!
Year 5 – First Aid Workshop
Year 5 have enjoyed a first aid workshop today, as part of our expedition focus on healthy bodies. Children learnt about how to respond if they come across an injured person or somebody who might be choking. They were also shown the correct method for chest compressions.
We hope the children never need to use any of the skills they have learned today but, if they ever do, hopefully they will be much better prepared to do so. To help children remember the information learned today, they have all taken away an information booklet alongside their certificate. Well done everyone!
Y5 Spelling Practice – w.c. 20/5/2024
This week, Year 5 have continued to practise words from the Y5/6 statutory list, including those we have practised before but which need further consolidation. Don’t forget to bring in any evidence of your home practice so that you can add up those HoWL points back in class!
KS2 Disco!
Our KS2 children have all enjoyed their disco this evening … sweets, treats and plenty of dancing!! A big thank you to the Friends of GreenTop for organising this fab event for our children 🙂
