Happiness is a day at the BEACH!

July 14, 2019 / f.marriott / No comments

Well we ticked off two of our 50 things before we had even arrived at the beach.

We travelled on a coach.

We travelled on a train.

We arrived at the beach eager to eat our packed lunches.

Then it was time to have some fun on the beach. We made sand sculptures, went beach combing, made sand castles and played bat and ball.

Then just before it was time to leave, we went for a paddle.

We had a brilliant day, and the weather was very kind to us.

Thank You!

July 12, 2019 / awirth / No comments

We are blown away by the generosity and thoughtfulness of our Y6 parents, who have given staff this beautiful artwork and hamper, along with a very touching card. We were already feeling pretty emotional sending our fab Snowy Owls on their way so this tipped a few of us over the edge! What a thoughtful gesture; thank you all so much.

Sizzler of a Sports Day!

July 8, 2019 / f.marriott / No comments

The day had finally arrived! The sun was indeed shining on Greenlands sports day 2019.

We kicked off we our mini-potted sports, which had been given a new look, and a few new additions.

The new water potted sports went down a storm. Just take a look at some of the children in action.

We then moved to our competitive sports, which after weeks of measuring and more measuring of the track, worked out well!

Our spectators enjoyed their refreshments of bacon baps, and tea and coffee.

Mr Parry organised some toddler races, and we finished off with a parents tug of war. The parents were really keen to get involved, and it brought our brilliant sports day to an end.

The whole event was very well supported by our wonderful families, and Liam Kay and his sports leaders from Dinnington Comprehensive.

The winners of sports day 2019 was Beech (Yellow)

A big well done to them and all the children that took part.

The children from Chaffinches went out into the forest to gather natural resources to create their own artwork of rainforest animals. They created snakes, a sloth, a toucan, a butterfly and a jaguar, using twigs, branches, leaves and stones

. Take a look at our creations.

Our Science Ambassadors launch Science week!

June 30, 2019 / jadams / No comments

On Monday, our Science Ambassadors visited Thorpe Hesley Primary School to help launch their Science week, as we also prepared for ours.

The ambassadors had prepared experiments, with Mrs Crossmore, which they wanted to show to the children at Thorpe Hesley. They performed these experiments in two assemblies, in front of over 400 children.

After the assemblies our ambassadors worked with children on a variety of Science investigations and then were able to meet up with Thorpe Hesley’s new Science Ambassadors, where they shared their experiences with them.

Overall it was a fantastic morning, enjoyed by all who took part. Our Science Ambassadors did us proud!

More to follow soon about our Science week!

: Science Ambassadors do us proud!

Chaffinches have had a fantastic week learning about Climate Change. They now realise the importance of recycling, re-using and not wasting things, and how this can make a difference to our planet. We made a video to highlight what we’ve learned and how we can help!
