Collaborative maths!
6EG have been working hard on improving their math skills, and this morning they used their knowledge to play a crazy game of snakes and ladders in which they had to round numbers to move forward.
Finding numbers on a number line
Today, year 3 spent time estimating where numbers would go on a number line to 100. An added bonus was that we drew all over the tables. Children used their reasoning skills to locate numbers and the use of mathematical vocabulary was amazing. Well done 3HJ!
Maths Masters!
Today, 4TE have been demonstrated their mathematics prowess with some cool number comparisons, awesome arithmetic and super Sumdog! Keep it up guys! We will be maths super stars in no time!
Striking Silhouettes
During immersion week, Year 3 began their expedition learning all about World War Two. Check out our beautiful artwork creating a silhouette of the London skyline during the Blitz. Here we used water colours to paint the background and drew the skyline on black paper! How effective do they look?
As plane as day…
…is the amount of awesome work that our pupils have done this last week. Here is just a selection of superb models of WW2 aircraft skillfully crafted using just lollipop sticks and glue. They now hang proudly on our y3/4 corridor ready to engage in a dog fight with enemy aircraft . Here, we remember the words of Churchill when referring to the exploits of the RAF during the battle of Britain: Never has so much, been owed by so many to so few.
Writing on tables?
This week Y3 have been learning all about place value in maths. We have been learning all about hundreds, tens and ones and it would only have been fair to kick this topic off by writing all over the tables.
We’re looking for Primary Teachers at XP Trust!
There is the opportunity of a lifetime to teach in our extraordinary schools, Green Top and Norton Junior School.

Monday 19th September – School closure to mark HM Queen Elizabeth II funeral
The official date of the State Funeral is 19 September 2022. This day will be a bank holiday and settings that are normally closed on a bank holiday should close on this day as a mark of respect. Therefore Norton Junior School will be closed to staff and children on that day.
Thank you
