Welcome to Greatwood School
We aim to bring learning alive, making it exciting and stimulating. We want to give our children a thirst for learning that continues with them throughout their future school experiences and lives. An essential ingredient for this to happen is teamwork. We view education as a joint venture involving everyone- children, parents, staff, governors and the wider community.
We hope that we will be able to depend on your co-operation and support in this partnership to provide the best for every child.

Year 2 tried out our new microscopes this afternoon to observe seeds closely, as well as make observations about photographs and test themselves with a true or false quiz! If only these photographs captured the moments of amazement we had today as we saw the weird and wonderful textures and patterns that zooming in revealed! Well done Year 2 š
Y4 started their Science topic of Sound with a survey of sounds and their sources around the school grounds. They identified different sounds and discussed their vibration source. Great collaborative work Y4! š¤©
Year 3 Science - Light
Today, we have been learning all about UV light in science, what it is, how it affects us and most importantly how we can protect ourselves.
We had a fantastic time designing and making our very own sunglasses to help protect our eyes from UV light. They showed so much creativity and care. Iām sure you will agree they look amazing! Next week, we will be using our persuasive skills to create adverts encouraging people to buy these wonderful creations while warning them about the dangers of UV light and how to stay safe in the sun.
Well done to all our super scientists in Year 3!
