Extended Study – Half Term Challenge!

On November 1st it is National Authors Day!

With all of our hard work towards our Reading Library we’d like to know who your favourite authors are?

How could you celebrate your favourite author?

  • You could share a story with a family member and take a picture to share
  • Listen to a story being read by your favourite author
  • Listen to a podcast
  • Create a fact-file about your favourite author
  • Be creative and become an author and write your own story! We could even have these displayed in your reading area!

We can’t wait to see what you come up with!

Have a lovely half term!

KS2 Disco!

We had great fun at the disco tonight and I think it was the busiest tuck shop in history! The hot dogs went down a treat, as did Mr Kershaw’s music playlist!

KS1 Disco Fun!

The children (and staff!) had a fantastic time dancing their socks off at our Autumn disco this evening. There were some amazing costumes and everyone had so much fun. A huge thanks go to our wonderful PTA, Friends of Green Top for organising this, and many other fabulous events that raise so much money for our school. You ladies rock!

Apologies for the somewhat blurry photographs in the slideshow below…it was difficult trying to get the children to stay still for the pictures!

Class 12: digital art work

Not bad at all for a first draft today they have smashed it out of the park and some have already told me what they want to do differently next time to improve for their second draft, so proud of your efforts guys.

Here are just a handful of examples of such beautiful work and craftsmanship.

key stage 1 community crew

A huge well done to all of our community crew winners this week. You have had a fantastic week, modelling beautiful manners and producing really great work. A huge well done too because our first reading certificate was handed out this week for reading 30 books so far, I can’t wait to see more get handed out! Well done key stage 1! Keep up the great work!

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.
