How could we pass up the opportunity to finish our National Math’s Week at Norton Campus with some Children in Need code breaking activities. It’s been like Bletchley Park in 4GC this morning!!

NJS Remembers
On Friday, the pupils of y3/4 made some commemorative remembrance day cards complete with an image of a poppy on the cover and a poem of remembrance on the inside. We are very proud to say that the cards were taken to Campsall Church and placed on the pews for members of our community to have as part of the church service this morning.

Investigating air resistance!
Continuing our learning about forces, 6EG have been investigating the affects of air resistance. There were some great questions and thinking!
Chance To Dance
This week the children in year 3 were excited to take part in the launch of our Chance to Dance lessons. Our focus ballet this year is The Nutcracker. To start, the children were introduced to the main characters from the ballet and created motifs to show their personality and how they might move. It was lovely to see how all children embraced this new genre of dance and the effort they put in to perfecting their performances.
Sensational Subtraction
Over the past few weeks, year 3 have immersed themselves in all things subtraction. We are now experts at using the number line to correctly take away and today we worked together to answer a range of different problems, supporting our peers where necessary. This is the true definition if crew! Well done 3HJ 😊
We’re looking for Teachers at Norton Juniors and Carcroft!
Peer Maths Coaching
Year 6 have been learning a range of formal written methods in maths including column addition and subtraction, long multiplication and bus stop division. Throughout this challenging sequence of work, the children have shown resilience and determination and have supported one another which has been great to see. Yesterday, they worked in coaching pairs solving multiplication and division word problems. They were supporting and encouraging of each other and Miss Corkan and I were extremely proud of them!
3LG have an expert visitor
Today 3LG have been extremely excited to welcome an expert visitor into school. We talked all about the Second World War and the children asked lots incredible questions.
As part of our work towards creating our final product we have been thinking about why it is important to share stories from World War Two. We cannot wait to start writing about all the information we have learned today!
