Geography club – what are we learning?
So far we have looked at what geography is, how the earth is structured and how the earth crust is divided and what it’s made up of. To do so we have made an all about geography poster, made a model of the earth’s layers and recreated the earth’s crust diagram. All of which have been fabulous and of lovely quality! Well done Geographers!!
Wizard of Oz – This weeks song lyrics
ONE DAY IN KANSAS (#1/13)
One day in Kansas,
Where the prairies meet the sky,
There stood a four-walled house
Barely eighty inches high.
A roof and a floor made a room with a door, A table and chairs for three.
So poky and small, but they weren’t very tall, And anyway it had to be,
Living in the very heart of Kansas,
Where the sky is always grey,
And out of nothingness,
A cyclone comes your way.
One day in Kansas,
When the grass began to sway,
Poor little Dorothy was told to hide away. So into a hole, like a mouse or a mole, She did what she had to do.
But Toto got out and went running about, So Dorothy jumped out too.
Living in the very heart of Kansas,
Where the sky is always grey,
Right out of nothingness,
A cyclone comes your way.
CYCLONE
One day in Kansas,
You’d have seen if you were there,
A whole house lifted up
And carried who-knows-where.
It vanished from sight, wasn’t even that light, So mighty the cyclone blew,
And all of the while just a dog and a child Were carried in the cyclone too.
Living in the very heart of Kansas,
Where the sky is always grey,
Right out of nothingness . . .
A cyclone comes your way.
KS2 Choir – Young Voices 2025
On Tuesday, I had the privilege of taking our KS2 choir to the Young Voices concert at the Utilita Arena. What an absolutely fantastic day and night we all had – even if we were all super tired afterwards!
A huge shoutout to all of the children for their awesome representation of Green Top and participating throughout the experience.
A big thank you to all of the family and friends that were able to come and support the event, we hope you enjoyed it as much as us!
Finally, an added shout out to the Year 6’s that make up our choir for your commitment each year to taking part in Young Voices – I really hope you enjoyed your last one and here’s a video to remember it all!
