EYFS visited the children’s hospital!

As part of our expedition learning we were invited into DRI to see Katie the Matron and the wonderful work and environment the staff there provide for their patients. Vincent and Elodie represented the school and I am so proud of them for their excellent behaviour and awesome thoughts and suggestions on how to improve the children’s ward. Elodie thought more princesses and phonics sounds were needed and Vincent wanted to see more superhero’s and dinosaurs. Great suggestions guys!
We are looking forward to being able to donate the money raised this term to the children’s ward in developing their much needed parents room.

Nursery – Goldilocks and the 3 Bears

Last week, the children loved learning about Goldilocks and the 3 Bears. We read the story, talked about the characters and their actions and then enjoyed lots of 3 bear themed provision. We were making bears with play dough, sensory playing using oats, role playing the story, following instructions to bake baby bear shaped bread and painting the characters from the story.

Awesome work Nursery Crew!

EYFS Sponsored Walk

On Wednesday we had such a fabulous time doing our sponsored walk to raise funds for DRI. The children were dressed as Superheroes. . . with kindness being our superpower of the day!

It was a bit soggy and a bit chilly but the children did not let this put them off! Well done everyone for being Greentop superheroes!!

Nursery – Learning focus this week

This week in phonics we are singing ‘The Wheels on the bus’ with emphasis on onomatopoeia. The children worked really hard today and I was impressed with how many were able to give me an example of a word that sounded like the action. E.g. swish, stomp, clap, beep.

In Literacy and expedition we are reading the story ‘Goldilocks and the three bears’ and focusing on how Goldilocks was not kind in the story and how she could have made better choices. Here we are today enjoying reading the story in the Autumn sunshine whilst we had our afternoon snack.

In maths we are looking at how we can create repeating patterns using 2 and 3 objects. I wonder…can you have a go at creating your own repeating pattern at home?

You could use toys, cars, leaves, sticks, conkers – anything you fancy!

Nursery – singing with Geoff

What a wonderful start to our day! Geoff and Hedgerly the Hedgehog came to visit our Nursery to compose the the opening line to our new Green Top School song. The children all worked hard to think of words they associated with ‘belonging’ and ‘kindness’. We can’t wait for you to hear our song…it is very special!
