Littlegreen Academy

Elm Class

Class Teacher: Phoebe Collins

Welcome to Elm Class 

 

Autumn Term 2025

Elm Class have made a fantastic start to the school year, returning eager and ready to learn. They have quickly settled into new routines, embraced new staff and classmates, and consistently shown the Littlegreen values in everything they do. 

The pupils have enjoyed team-building activities, showing kindness, support, and cooperation both in lessons and games. They have begun their new topic Back to the Future (Stone Age to Iron Age), demonstrating Courage and Perseverance with their learning. In English, everyone has worked Ambitiously on 500-word stories for the Newsround competition, using their imagination and sharing their writing with great pride. 

PE has been filled with outdoor games like duck, duck, goose and hot potato, which has helped build friendships while having fun. Forest school has also been a highlight, with pupils especially enjoying hammocks and learning how to make a fire. It has been a wonderful start, full of teamwork, creativity, and new experiences. 

Autumn Term 2 2025

Elm class have had a great term so far. Pupils have all been working hard to show the Littlegreen values in all that we do.   

Everyone has shown great Ambition and Perseverance with their learning, especially their maths work. We have been solving addition and subtraction questions and are now learning about area and perimeter of 2-D Shapes.   

Some of the pupils went on a scavenger walk where they had to hunt and find certain things, like plants, animals, insects etc. They showed great resilience whilst out on their walk, supporting each other to find their list of things. Everyone demonstrated kindness by helping each other and making sure they were respecting the nature around them. 

In Forest School, Elm class have begun making some Christmas decorations, this has taken lots of patience, accepting and kindness. All pupils have displayed acceptance of having to wait their turn and kindness by helping one another to complete their crafts. Their Christmas trees look fantastic.  

Thrive has been a firm favourite for Elm so far. All pupils have shown courage by participating in all Thrive lessons even when they are unsure about it. We have made lots of slime, play dough, potions and obleck. It’s been very messy but very fun!
