Welcome to Anston Greenlands Primary School

The Year 6s look amazing in their new leavers’ hoodies.

Their final few weeks as Snowy Owls will fly by but we’ve got so much to pack in first, including a trip to the Coal Mining Museum, a Horrible Histories Film Show, a performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream and, of course, our leavers’ assembly. We’re going to have lots of fun!

The Snowy Owls and Golden Eagles had a great day in York on Monday 15th May.
At ‘DIG’ we had the opportunity to investigate finds from real digs with the help of an archaeologist.

We helped a Viking to tell Norse sagas, kennings and myths.

After finding out about the remains of a real Viking village, we boarded a time machine pod and headed back in time to York over a thousand years ago, complete with sounds, smells and sights!

Inspired by the yellow spotted lizard in the novel ‘Holes’, the Snowy Owls and Golden Eagles will be creating their own fictional lizards using modelling clay. The Y6 Art Champions had a go first – aren’t they amazing?

The Snowy Owls and Golden Eagles are loving our Novel Study based around the amazing ‘Holes’ by Louis Sachar.
Towards the end of term, we will be holding an American Party featuring food from the USA. Last week, the children made and sampled a delicious vegan jambalaya.

A huge well done to all the brave parents who tried out our Escape from Boggle Hole Escape Room. We think you will agree that it was a tough challenge; the children loved creating the puzzles and were very impressed with your problem solving skills.  The children thoroughly enjoyed their role as Games Masters too . Thank you so much for the incredibly positive comments on our feedback forms. We will share some of these with you soon.

Here are the first few photos – more to come …
