KS2 Tennis

Well done to our KS2 boys who took part in our first legacy competition yesterday at Doncaster Tennis Club. It was great to see some fantastic tennis skills on show and all the boys enjoying themselves. Well done for finishing 5th boys and a big shout out to George for winning the sportsmanship award. Bring on the next competition!

Y4 Football success!

A huge congratulations to our amazing Year 4 footballers who took part in the Snaith Cluster Schools Football Tournament this week!

We were proud to have two Green Top teams representing our school — and both teams gave it their absolute all. Their hard work, teamwork, and determination really paid off, as both Green Top 1 and Green Top 2 reached the finals in their respective groups.

Green Top 1 showed incredible resilience and skill, battling through to a nail-biting final that ended in a penalty shootout. The team held their nerve and came out victorious — well done on your win!

Green Top 2 also put in a fantastic performance, narrowly missing out on the top spot in a very close final. Your efforts, attitude, and sportsmanship were outstanding, and you should be very proud of yourselves.

It was a brilliant evening full of energy, excitement, and positive spirit. A great time was had by all, and the experience was one to remember for every player involved. Thank you to everyone who supported and cheered the teams on — and a special thank you to Mr Overson for supporting this event and making it possible.

Well done, Green Top Year 4 — you did us proud!

KS2 Sports Day

Just a reminder to parents and carers about our KS2 sports day. Sports day will be on Tuesday 10th June on the KS2 field. Gates will be open from 12:50. Please enter through the main entrance on Middlebrook Lane. We are hoping to start at 1pm and finish before the end of the school day. There will also be refreshments on sale.

Children can come to school in their PE kits on Tuesday. Please make sure that all children wear trainers.

We look forward to seeing you on Tuesday afternoon!

Dance session

We’ve had a great session with our dance expert this afternoon! Everyone gave their full effort and tried their best!

Y3/4 Quick Cricket in the sun!

A few bats, a tennis ball, and some makeshift stumps are all we need. It’s easy to set up, and even easier to get people involved.

Most days, as soon as the break starts, we head outside and get a game going. The format is really casual—just a few overs each, fast-paced, and relaxed. No pressure, just pick up a bat or ball and join in.

It’s been a great way to spend time in the sun, get some fresh air, and take a real break. There’s plenty of laughing, the occasional big hit, and some very enthusiastic fielding.

What’s nice is how inclusive it is. You don’t have to be good at cricket to enjoy it. Everyone gets a go, and no one takes it too seriously.Playing quick cricket at lunch has turned into something we all look forward to. It’s a simple way to break up the day, get moving, and enjoy a bit of sunshine and good company.

Y3/4 – School Visit – Final Reminders

The countdown is on to our upcoming visits so here are just a few reminders to ensure everyone is in the know:

  • Children should arrive at school for our usual time of 8.30am and we expect to be back in time for 3pm collection from our usual doors.
  • Children are required to wear their school t-shirt / polo and their school jumper or cardigan (n.b. even if it is warm weather, it will be cool inside the venue).
  • Children should wear comfortable, long trousers or leggings in a dark colour. No jeans, shorts or skirts.
  • Children will need to wear safe and comfortable footwear, such as trainers. No sandals, crocs or sliders.
  • Children will need to bring their packed lunches and a securely fastened water bottle in a bag that they can comfortably carry themselves. Where pupils are receiving a school packed lunch, please send your child with a bag that can accommodate this.
  • As some of our time may be spent outdoors in a play area, please ensure your child has appropriate items for this. As we expect it to be warm weather, a sunhat and suncream may be advisable. If the weather is particularly cold or wet, then a lightweight coat with a hood will be needed. Please ensure these items fit securely in your child’s bag.
  • Children are not permitted to eat or drink on the coach, and we will not have time to visit the gift shop during our trip. Therefore, no sweets, snacks or money is needed.

And, finally, just a quick reminder to (a) pay any outstanding trip monies via Parent Pay, and (b) ensure you have signed and returned any forms sent home by your child’s class teacher. Thank you 🙂

We can’t wait enjoy our trip with everyone and for the children to bring their expedition learning to life with what is sure to be a fabulous experience. Not many sleeps to go now!
