Xmas Pantomime at Plover

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas. What a lovely way to start December today has been… children greeted by Santa’s little helpers (teachers), a pantomime and the Plover Elves have decorated school. #LovePlover

Tummy time drawing

We did tummy time drawing today to match sounds from the story to musical instruments and to shapes we could make. This is what we did.

Tummy Time

Today we have been working on our motor skills. We listened to different styles of music and discussed the base/pitch/speed and discussed how this made us feel. We used our gross motor skills to create large and small movements whilst listening to the music and discussed how everyone’s patterns were different even though we had all done the same thing, just like our feelings can be.

Happy December!

Last night some elves snuck into our classroom and transformed it into a winter wonderland! The children have really enjoyed exploring the Christmas areas in their role play and completing the first Christmas challenges set by Eddie the Elf.

Beautiful Work This Week

Pride of Thorne Awards

This very special event has brought together nominees from across Green Top’s local community who have been recognised for their invaluable work both with and for the people of Thorne. From food banks to emergency services to care homes – all were presented awards by KS1 children at Green Top, as part of their Expedition ‘Not all superheroes wear capes’. The list and variety of work celebrated this evening was incredible and each and every award was so well deserved. Congratulations to all of you from Green Top!

The classrooms were visited by Christmas elves last night. The children have had a great morning learning and exploring some Christmassy provision.

British Values

In Crew today, we have learnt about British values and how to live them daily. We practised signing some of the keywords we think of when talking about British Values and then made posters to remind us of them.
