Class 5 – Hook Week

9th September 2024Carly Schon

During hook week Class 5 had a lovely time creating dragon eyes out of clay. The children really persevered and took their time ensuring they created their most beautiful work. It was a lot of fun!

We also had a lovely XP outdoors session in the Year 1 garden area with Mr Kershaw. We enjoyed toasting marshmallows on the camp fire. Thank you Mr Kershaw for a lovely afternoon.

We have also made decorations for our classroom to make it look like a royal castle.

We had such a fun week!

Service and community learning

5th September 2024Alishia Pearson

From next week, and throughout the school year, Crews (roughly one per week) will be visiting the Pentecostal Charity Shop. If you have any donations at home which you wish to part with or have a declutter planned, please feel free to send items into school at any point and our crews will happily deliver. The items will need to be safe and easy enough for the children carry. No large, bulky or heavy items please.

Pass any bits you may wish to donate to Crew leaders and we will store, sort and deliver them throughout the school year!

Many thanks, from all crews at Green Top!

Class 5: Amazing Maths

3rd September 2024Carly Schon

Today we learned about sorting objects in different ways. We enjoyed listening to the story ‘The Button Box’ and we had a go at sorting items in lots of different ways. The children had some great ideas about how they could sort the items e.g. by size, colour or shape. Logan, Eli and Dax also sorted the animals into ‘land’, ‘sea’ and ‘swamp’ animals. When sorting the buttons the children used some brilliant vocabulary to describe the groups they had made.

Great work Class 5!

Class 10 – Evacuees

2nd September 2024Claire Dutton

We’ve had a brill start to our expedition hook week today by learning all about evacuees and their experiences in WW2. We made wooden peg fighter planes and cardboard gas mask boxes before taking a trip as a evacuees to a local church where we wrote letters home and thought about the things we would take with us in a real evacuation.

A big shout out to those children who were able to dress up – you all looked amazing!
