XP East

We took a team of Year 7 girls to Castle Park to compete in a tournament against other schools in Doncaster. The girls showed brilliant resilience and determination,improveing as every game went on. The girls went into the final winning all of their 3 games, however unfortunately fell short at the final hurdle and lost against Hall Cross.

Finishing the competition in second place with some great new skills to take away.

We’re looking for two incredible Learning Coaches to join the team at Green Top School!

This is an opportunity to be part of a school where relationships come first, learning is purposeful, and every child is known, supported, and challenged.

You’ll work side by side with teachers to help deliver beautiful, meaningful learning experiences as part of our expeditionary learning curriculum. From Early Years to Key Stage 2, you’ll support children to grow academically, socially and emotionally – helping them become thoughtful, capable, and kind individuals.

Our netball teams had the opportunity to go and watch Leeds Rhions V Nottinham Forrest at the Canon Medical Arena. What an exciting game it was watch. Students were fully engaged in the match and even met some of the players at the end. What a brilliant evening of sport.

Crew White cleared the stairs this morning and laid out the lost property. There wasn’t much left to sort, which is always good news — a large part of it had already been successfully returned to its rightful owners, thanks to initials or names in clothing. Please continue to do this — it really does help.
