Class 11 Seed Dispersal Posters! 🌱
Today, Class 11 have been creating their own anchor charts to help them understand how seeds are dispersed, the variety of ways this happens and why this happens. We worked well collaboratively so that we could really get smart in this part of our Expedition!
Class 11 Equivalent Fractions! 🔢
Class 11 have been working really hard on understanding equivalent fractions and to start us off, we practised shading in different fractions to see how they worked!
Red Nose Day – Friday 17th March
To celebrate Comic Relief this year, we are inviting you to come to school dressed in red with a suggested donation of £1.
This years merchandise includes many different Mr Men and Little Miss characters.
As part of Red Nose Day we are launching our very own Design a T-shirt Competition!
If you want to take part, all you need to do is design your very own Red Nose Day t-shirt and bring it with you on Friday 17th March.
Get creative and design it in any way you want! You might want to draw a picture, paint it or even create a t-shirt you can wear on the day.
Each crew will vote for their winning design to be entered into a whole school competition. Have you got what it takes to be our winning design? Good Luck! We can’t wait to see what you come up with!
YOUNG VOICES 2023!
On the Friday we broke up for half term, I had the privilege of taking some of our KS2 Choir to Young Voices at the Utilita Arena, Sheffield. It was lovely to see lots of new friendships being built and children supporting and encouraging each other. A HUGE shoutout for the superb behaviour too which was shown by the children, they represented our school brilliantly.
Thank you to all of the adults that supported the event either buying tickets, coming along to watch the show or collecting children from school afterwards it is greatly appreciated!
Myself, Mrs Faulding, Mrs Cook, Miss Nolan and Miss Kelly even enjoyed singing along and learning the dance moves too – we were all very proud and already looking forward to next year!
Well done everyone! x
Year 3 family learning
We’ve had a fantastic time this morning in our family learning. We have been dissecting a lily to identify the parts of a flower and draw a diagram with labels to show this. We finished off with a kahoot quiz and we all got very competitive, well done to the winners- Plant Pioneers!
Thank you to all the parents that came along and attended, we really appreciate all of your support.
Mr Gerrard, Miss Hilton, Miss O’Neill and Miss Bull
World Book Day
Green Top will be celebrating World Book Day on Thursday 2nd March and this will be a dress up event.
We can’t wait to see which book character you decide to be but please don’t feel that you have to buy a costume – we love seeing the homemade ones!
E-Safety Day! 💻🎮
Today was e-safety day, where we discussed the importance of being safe if we are using the internet. This included gaming and for those with a phone.
Class 11 came up with lots of sensible answers for how to stay safe, such as speak to an adult, block those who are unkind or quit a game. So we thought we would share that amazing advice through the creation of posters.
Celery experiment! 🌱💦
Yesterday, Class 11 were able to see how water was transported through the celery, after a full weekend drinking the food coloured water. It didn’t go as we expected however we did see some effects of how water travels through plants. We wondered if there was too much water, not enough sunlight or whether the celery needed more time to transport the food colouring?
YOUNG VOICES REMINDER – FRIDAY 10th FEBRUARY!
Young Voices is NEARLY here!! Children will be leaving school at 12pm to arrive at Utilita Arena in time for rehearsals to start at 1pm. Children will have lunch early in school before leaving.
Children will need a packed lunch for their tea and plenty to drink – We will be having an hour at 5pm for children to be able to eat in the arena before the concert begins.
I have received all of the children’s T-Shirts and Torches and will distribute them to the children on the day. Children should come to school in their usual school uniform and can change their T-Shirts before we leave.
Concert Times:
Venue doors open at 6pm for all adults who are attending. The Concert starts at 7pm and finishes at 8:45pm. All adult tickets will be given to children by the end of tomorrow to bring home at 3pm. There is also a letter that gives further information about parking.
All children are to return to school on the coach and no children will be permitted to leave the arena with their parents. The coach will drop everyone off at the main school gates at approximately 9:45pm.
