Last week, Class 10 were working hard on part of their final product. Our designs are looking great and we hope that the the local community appreciate them too!
Class 10 final product
Category : Year 3/4
Class 10 National Writing Day!
Yesterday was national Writing day. This mean the children had freedom to write about a chosen image and decide what genre to write about. We had some fantasy tales, some newspaper articles and some excellent narratives. The children tried to remember features that we have used this year as well. There were some really lovely and interesting pieces of writing and what was great to see was the fun had by all when writing their pieces of work. It was a relaxed atmosphere and then we loved hearing what others wrote.
History Club
The children in History Club continued their learning on D Day tonight by adding to the 80th Anniversary commemoration display in the KS1 corridor. Children from all year groups have contributed work to the display and I am blown away by both the quality of the work, and the empathy shown in the content of the writing. We discussed the Normandy landings on the morning of the 6th of June 1944, and the children learned about the reasons behind the previous evening’s mass drop of paratroopers behind Hitler’s Atlantic Wall and how these brave men fought to capture and hold roads and bridges to secure a safer passage for those who were to follow in the beach attacks the next day.
There are still a few finishing touches to be added and photographs of the completed display will be blogged as soon as it is completed but here is a sneak preview…
KS2 Disco!
Our KS2 children have all enjoyed their disco this evening … sweets, treats and plenty of dancing!! A big thank you to the Friends of GreenTop for organising this fab event for our children 🙂
Class 10 Chocolate Visit!
Class 10 had the joy of Carolyne from Sugar Rush visiting us and teaching us more amazing facts about the Mayans. We loved it!
We loved even more having the chance to try delicious chocolate treats that were brought in. Thanks for the great afternoon!
Y3 XP Outdoors reminder!!
Tomorrow is Year 3s XP Outdoors day.
Please can we remind all parents/carers to ensure that the children bring their XP outdoors kit with them tomorrow. This includes a change of clothes and footwear suitable for spending time outdoors (weather appropriate) as well as sunscreen / hat and a water bottle during particularly warmer weather.
Thank you! Year 3 + Mr K!
Year 3 XP Outdoors!
WOW what a fun morning year 3 have had! Mr Kershaw taught the children how to make brownies in oranges and cook them on the fire. The children practised fire safety and cooking all in the same lesson.
Playground Leader Reminder (KS2)
Just a reminder about the option to apply for a playground leader role!
To help make break times even better we are asking for the children to volunteer to be a playground leader (in KS2). This will include a vote.
If this role is something that you are interested in, create a poster that shows:
- Why you would be a great playground leader?
- How can you help adults at break time?
- What ideas you have for playtime games?
- What character traits you will show with this
- Are you confident to lead other children?
If you wanted to do a bit of Easter homework (no pressure) then you can create the poster, as mentioned above.
The deadline for this (sent to class teachers) will be Wednesday 17th April.
Class 10 100% attendees!
