A big shout out to some of our post card winners this week!
You’ve all earned your place up there by your amazing learning attitudes. You’re setting a superb example to the rest of your crew and we are all really proud of you!
Keep it up, you’re super stars!

Just look at this beautiful handwriting!!
We’ve had a big push on our handwriting and presentation in academic crew this week, just in time for our final writing touch down!
We discussed where letters should sit on the lines and how to write using horizontal strokes even if we can’t join our writing yet. It was evident in your final touchdown writing today that you’ve taken away all that we’ve learnt.
Keep it up, I want to see the same high standard of writing and presentation in every piece of work please!

A huge shout out to everyone in Crew Faulding for working hard in maths today.
We’ve been recapping finding the area and perimeter of a shape and I have been blown away by what everyone can remember about this unit and how you applied your prior knowledge, creating beautiful work!
Keep it up everyone, you’re amazing!

Are you ready to face Lady Overson and Lord Mumby? Will you be hired? The Apprentice has arrived at Green Top.
Join us on Thursday 19th May to see if you have what it takes to be hired in each crew. Arrive at the office at 1:30pm and be prepared to receive your brief. You will have a number of tasks to complete before pitching your final product. Finally, an anonymous vote will take place to see who will be hired. We will finish at 3pm.
We look forward to seeing you all there.
We are hoping for each child to have 2 glass jars that they can use as part of their final product so we would like to start collecting them as soon as possible to ensure that we get enough.
We would like to continue supporting our last expedition ‘How can we protect our beautiful planet?’ By reusing glass jars rather than buying them new so if you could please help us with this, we would greatly appreciate it!
Ideally, we would like jars in similar sizes to these shown in the picture, nothing too small though. A pasta sauce jar or jam jar etc would be perfect. Additionally, we would like for these to be brought in to school washed and clean please along with the labels removed.
Also, if you’ve already sent your two jars in for your child but have more that you’d like to donate then of course, feel free as we will be more than happy to make use of them or to distribute them out to anyone who hasn’t got one.
Thank you in advance for your continued support! We can’t wait to share this product with you soon.
Year 3 and 4 Team
Wow year 5 have been absolutely A-M-A-Z-I-N-G in G-Block the past couple of weeks with our new music sessions! Not only do they look the part, but they are sounding brilliant and are developing and deepening their knowledge and understanding of music too! We have looked at different music notes, revised key words such as tempo and pitch, and the children can tell you the importance and purpose of a beat, as well as the style of different songs. They have enjoyed the vocal warm ups and have also loved learning our main song ‘Livin’ On A Prayer’ which we will continue to practice over the next few weeks ready for a final performance!
Keep it up my little rockstars!! I’m really impressed 😀

We are looking forward to celebrating National Numeracy Day on Wednesday 18th May!
Maths is all around us and in the run up to National Numeracy Day, I would love for you to take some photos of you that link to maths! Maybe it will be a picture of you using money to pay for something in the shop, maybe it will be of how many steps you have walked in a day, or maybe it will be of you practising your maths skills!
How creative can you be finding maths around your home and in the community? Please send all of your photographs to [email protected] so that I can make a video to celebrate maths!
Also, check out the official website (link below) because there are lots of fun activities that you can do with your children!

The new homework menu has now been added to the expedition website and year 3 online classroom. We can’t wait to see what you’ll get up it! Don’t forget to share your pictures with us.
Congratulations to the children in year 3 and 4 who got ‘Out of this World’ this week.
We’ve just started a new unit of work on Time in year 4.
We have covered some of this in Maths Talk, as well as in our maths lessons over the last couple of days but have a go at some of these and either fetch them in to your teacher or take a photo and put them on the classroom (they will be uploaded on there as well). We can’t wait to hand out some HoWL points!
Here are also some helpful links to some tutorials on time too…
