What a great day class 8 had designing their own crowns, making shields, having photos taken in front of our own castle and then finishing the afternoon with medieval dancing and banquet.
Class 10 Shout Out
A shout out this week to our crew member, Charlotte who has recently achieved her 100m swimming certificate outside of school. A huge well done, Charlotte – we are all so proud of you!
Service and community learning
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
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
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!
Hook week
Class 8 have had a lovely day sketching dragon eyes then watercolour painting to finish, then all the children made dragon eyes from clay. Well done everyone!
Class 5: Day 4
Today we made our own keyrings to help to spread messages about how we can help to protect our planet.
Year 3/4 | Colour Run Fun!
Y3/4 Links to Homework Menu and Parent Overview are now accessible. Thank you.
Welcome to Year 1
We are excited to welcome all of our new parents and children to Year 1. We will keep parents up to date with things that are happening in school through our class blogs. Today we wanted to share a few expectations that help to keep Year 1 running smoothly.
- Please ensure all uniform is labelled with your child’s name. If it is not labelled staff will label it. This ensures we have no lost property in school.
- Please ensure children bring a bag to school each day to keep their belongings safe. Children are asked to keep many things safe in their backpack and it also helps children to carry all of their belongings at the end of the day (water bottles, jumpers, cardigans, reading books, letters etc)
- All children should bring a water bottle filled with water only every day
- Please remember we have a no toys rule in school – please keep all toys/teddy bears etc at home
- All children will need a PE kit consisting of a dark green T-Shirt, Black shorts and trainers or pumps. These will be needed from the week beginning 9th September. We ask that all children bring their PE kits to school on a Monday and take it home on a Friday. For this reason it would be helpful if children’s PE kit was in a separate bag to their every day backpack.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask your child’s class teacher in person or via email.
We are looking forward to a super year in Year 1. We have some great expeditions, visits and visitors lined up for the children to enjoy. More information will be shared soon!
