Thankyou to Year 1 Rhinos

Thankyou for sharing your lovely assembly about dinosaurs and telling us about some of the things you have been learning. Your song was very good and we really like your dinosaur collages. 
Well done to you, Miss Webb and Mrs Chan!

Talented artists in the Infants

We've already been really impressed by the standard of art work in many classes this term. Here are two images from Reception class, by Blessing and Rio, that really wowed myself and Miss Leeming, our Artist in Residence.


In addition to those, Miss Webb was very impressed by the dinosaur collage produced in her Year 1, Rhino Class.
More dinosaurs from Year 1
And lovely, colourful pastel work from Year 2

Green cards

Green cards are a new thing at Griffin, awarded to pupils by adults in the school for outstanding achievement. This can be great work, beautiful behaviour, super effort or thoughtful respect for their own and others' rights - anything that is great for the particular child.

Children go with their Green Card - and work, where appropriate - to a senior member of staff who will recognise their great achievement. And of course, their pictures will be taken for family to share in the celebration via the blog!

Here are our first set of recipients from across the school. Congratulations to you all!
