Beautiful Work This Week
C27: You Give Me Fever
In January 2023, students in Year 9 studied a joint HUMAN and STEAM expedition called ‘You give me fever’ where students had to answer the guiding question:
Is Science enough to save lives?
The final product was a charity drive in order to raise money for local health charities. We did lots of school events in order to raise money for the charity chosen by each school. We conducted a sponsored walk, bake sale, PJ day, sponsored silence and a bikeathon.
For our presentation of learning, we created short flip book animations that were projected in XP East. There were zones set up outside around XPD made to look like the time periods of each case study (Black Death, Cholera Outbreak, Spanish Flu & Aids). We were dressed up in period costumes and spoke to the audience about the science and history or each case study. Students also displayed their artwork and sketchbooks to showcase the skills they had acquired this term. At the end of the PoL we presented the funds raised for equipment at NHS Doncaster.

Great work from everyone!
Class 11 Family Learning! 🌋
We don’t know if you’re aware, but there was an eruption close to Green Top and we had to make sure that we could escape safely from the area. Luckily, we all just about managed to complete the challenging clues and evacuate from the eruption area.
In all seriousness, it was a lovely morning filled with so many smiling faces and not just the children. Thank you to everyone who could make it and for making it a really lovely morning!
Year 3/4 – World War 2 Book Launch 🇬🇧
Thank you to everyone who attended our book launch last week, it was lovely to see parents, grandparents and children getting involved with the launch of our book that we created in the autumn term. Books are still available for purchase to anyone who would like one, but was unable to attend last week. We hope you enjoy this little video from the event!
Our week so far…
This week in Nursery the children have been super busy. We have had so much fun exploring our learning environment and playing with our friends. I cant wait to see what else we get up to this week.
Getting creative in Nursery…
This afternoon we have had so much fun painting. We have used different block objects to create a painting of a train. Nursery have loved getting creative. I wonder what else we can paint with?
