A reminder that red noses will continue to be on sale this week up until the day itself. They are priced at £1.50 per red nose and we only have a limited number remaining so make sure that you get yours bought early! School councillors will be bringing them round during morning crew.
Friday 18th March 2020 is Red Nose Day in the UK. At Green Top we will be raising money for the event by selling red nose’s. Red nose’s will go on sale from tomorrow and school councillors will be bringing them to each class in the mornings, priced at £1.50. On the day, we will also be raising money by wearing something red and bringing in a £1 donation. To go along with this, the school council have also thought of some activities that we will be doing in the afternoon.
On Friday, I had the pleasure of taking a group of children from Year 3 and 4 to Trinity to take part in an afternoon of Basketball. I was SO impressed with how well everyone worked together and with the children from the other school. The children listened to the coach really respectfully and gained some fantastic skills! Well done everyone!
A huge shout out to our post card winners so far this week! It has been so lovely to hear lots of positive things being shared in crew each day. Lot’s of positive learning and achievements to celebrate – Well done everyone!
I have been blown away by how confident everyone in our Crew has been during our Music Case Study and this week has been no different. The children used Standard Notation to create a Music Telephone. They then practiced in groups and very bravely presented them to each other. It was great to see lots of group introducing rounds to their music telephones too. Well done everyone!!
A HUGE well done to all of our postcard winners this week – you have all shown brilliant learning attitudes, super motivation and lots of kindness! Very proud of you all!!
A big well done to Crew Oldridge on being awarded first place for your attendance this week. We can see that you’re all working really hard ensuring that you are coming to school each day. Keep it up!
Another well done but this time to Crew Tortora on winning the overall HoWL points for this week so they got to spin the prize wheel. It’s fab to see that you are all getting smart, working hard and being kind. All of these contribute to lots of HoWL points being awarded! Enjoy your extra play time, you super stars!
In Accelerated Reader, we celebrated Crew Faulding for their above average reading percentage and also Crew Myers for their 0.3 percent increase since before half term. Year 4 are smashing it! Keep it up!
Children from Year 2-5 had a fun-filled time at XP East today as we met up with children who are also digital leaders from across the trust. We began the day with a brilliant tour of XP and XP East before working hard to understand the role of a digital leader, why digital leaders are important and the qualities a digital leader should have. I was blown away by the children’s efforts and collaboration but also the courage they demonstrated to share their ideas in front of a big audience! A great day was had by all and the children will now share their learning with the leadership team at Green Top. Thank you to Mr. Portman and XP for having us for the day…we had a great time!
