We had a lovely Christmas jumper day yesterday and managed to showcase our jumpers at the church and and the beautiful Christmas tree in Thorne!
Guess the name of the elf?
So our beautiful reindeer now has a new home! Check out the blog post on our website to find out the lucky winner.
Our gorgeous elf has forgotten it’s name – can you guess what it is? If you would like the chance to win the elf next week, bring in 50p to have a go at guessing. I can’t wait for our elf to have new home before Christmas. Good luck everyone!
Say hello to Rosco the reindeer!
Well done to Ashton who guessed the name correctly. Ashton left us in July to move to secondary school but joined us at Christmas Bingo on Tuesday night with his family. I am sure that Rosco will be happy in his new home!

Year 5/6 Choir visit to Casson Court
What a beautiful time we had this morning visiting the residents and workers at Casson Court! The children sang a range of Christmas songs and spread some festive cheer amongst the residents. So proud of you all, what a gorgeous opportunity for the choir! Thank you for our sweets too! We can’t wait to visit again after the new year!
KS1 Pantomime Visit…Oh yes it was!
KS1 had a fabulous afternoon at our annual visit to Cast theatre in Doncaster to see Cinderella. The children did us proud and behaved impeccably during our trip and it was lovely to hear the comments of Cast staff on how polite our wonderful kids are. A huge thanks to Friends of Green Top for your support with funding this event and helping to give the children this wonderful experience.
Reception: Christmas performance
What a wonderful afternoon our Reception children had today! They opened their Christmas performance with some fantastic festive songs, filling the room with joy and excitement. Afterwards, the children enjoyed a range of Christmas crafts alongside their adults, creating lovely keepsakes together. They also had the chance to purchase some Christmas treats and their photos from our Christmas photo shoot earlier in the year.
A huge thank-you to all the adults who came to support the children today. I’m sure you’ll agree that they were absolutely amazing—showing such bravery, confidence, and talent on stage.
We are incredibly proud of everything they achieved today, and we’re certain you are too.
WE FOUND THE ELF!!
Yesterday, the children from the Umbrella Room spotted the Thorne and Moorends Town Council’s cheeky elf hiding at our school! Well done guys for spotting him! I wonder if you’ll be lucky enough to spot him around Thorne and Moorends in the next couple of weeks!
