Greenhill Curriculum Lead

Last week FROGS had a visit to school where we joined the fantastic Year 6 members of the Eco committee to complete an Eco audit of the grounds. We are very excited about how we can support and work with school. Watch this space for updates.... 🌎🌱

Our Y6 tag rugby team secured a place at the SY School Games finals after coming top of the Sheffield league. They played brilliantly finishing in the top 10 teams in South Yorkshire. A huge well done to Team Greenhill who were resilient and showed excellent sportsmanship.

We can’t wait for this!! 🎅🏻 🎄

History came to life today in LKS2. Mr Egypt taught the children all about life and death in Ancient Egyptian times. The children practised some traditional dancing and have held artefacts that are 4000 years old! 🇪🇬

Blown away by our KS1 children this term. Artwork inspired by @hirst_official 🦋

Our foundation stage children absolutely loved their Gingerbreadman workshop today. Lots of role playing, story telling, crafting, working as a team and most of all FUN!

What an memorable night yesterday for some of our amazing Greenhill pupils to be flag bearers at the Word Wheelchair Rugby Cup held at the EIS. I chatted with some of the children today who said it was an experience they will never forget. 🦽 🏉 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇫🇷

KS1 learning about algorithms and creating their own in computing today by guiding the hungry caterpillar through all the food he eats before he becomes a butterfly 🐛 🦋

Some of the gorgeous things our craft club have been making each week after school. This fantastic club is ran by one of our super creative teaching assistants 👩‍🎨

What a super day for some of our KS2 children on Friday @SheffLibraries @crucibletheatre getting some of their favourite books signed! 📚

Some of our wonderful poppies and learning displayed in our local @MorrisonsNews

A fantastic staff training session with @Digimap4Schools. Our minds were blown by some of the tools that we know the children will love exploring. We look forward to building regular use into our Geography curriculum but also enhancing other areas too with this fantastic tool. 🗺

What an amazing way to end the half term in UKS2 by exploring Longshaw in the Peak District. Children put their map reading skills to the test as part of their Geography learning. What beautiful weather they had too! ☀️ 🍂

Thank you so much @YorkshireWater for the wonderful, interactive workshops our LKS2 children enjoyed last week. 💧 The children learnt all about the water cycle and were able to impress our visitors with their fantastic knowledge!

Feeling excited for our KS1 Florence Nightingale workshops booked this half term to immerse the children into our Welfare wonders history learning. @OneDayCreative

Last week EYFS enjoyed listening to some live clarinet music and exploring an unfamiliar instrument. Can you guess the song?

What a team! It’s GOOD to be Greenhill! 💚 As curriculum lead I couldn’t be prouder! thestar.co.uk/education/thre…

Congratulations to our amazing Assistant Head Mrs Whitehouse who completed the London Marathon this weekend. What an achievement! 🏃‍♀️ 💪🏻 🏅 The children and staff loved putting a video together to surprise her in Friday’s assembly to say Good Luck!

FROGS are excited to be holding a Halloween Disco 🎃 this year and invite the children to dress up in their Halloween costumes to attend (no masks please). Payment opening soon on Parent Pay! @Greenhill_Sch

Materials across school is proving very exciting! Testing to see if items can bend, stretch, squash or twist in Y2, observing liquids in LKS2 to see if they all freeze at the same temperature and in UKS2 a focus on dissolving and diffusion using skittles Happy investigating!
