Science and Art Week Launch
This week has seen us taking part in even more dialogue than usual with the in-person part of Parent's Evening; the final debates in class; and a fabulous launch of Science and Art Fortnight on Thursday. Whether it is a lost sock; a difficult question; dealing with unkindness; or football coaching, talking about it with someone always seems a good place to start.
We also have some more focused Coffee Mornings run by our Family Support Worker Georgie. Come along and talk!
Science and Art Fortnight launch assembly
Today, we were very lucky to be joined by Mrs. Batchelor and Dr. Senderovich in an assembly to launch Science and Art Fortnight. We were fascinated to learn about the human genome project and how some technology has changed since our school opened.
Over the next two weeks the children will be spending the vast amount of their time investigating Science and Art. I can't wait to see what they learn!
We have had a few more social media issues rumbling in school. To help you support your child as they transition to this vast exciting virtual playground, please do consider accessing some of the brilliant online training available from the NSPCC - see dates and times and links. If you do manage to attend, we would be happy to share any key messages in future Newswebs.
FOLG FUN RUN
With three weeks to the end of term, FOLG are very excited to share our Fun Run information with you and hope you will be able to support the process in some way. The planned route is 1.7miles around our lovely streets and countryside. More information will be coming closer to the date.
For the second year in a row, the Little Green Girls Football team have made it to the Premier League Primary Stars National Finals! The girls competed in the East England Regional competition hosted by Luton Town FC where they won all of their matches, not conceding a single goal! They are now going to represent Watford FC against the regional winners from across the country in the National finals in June, and will play on the pitch at Elland Road Stadium in Leeds.
FOLG second-hand sports kit marketplace
We are really excited to announce that FOLG is setting up it’s own online marketplace for parents to donate and buy second-hand sportswear and equipment on a new community based app called "Grassboots". With most donations priced between £1.00 to £5.00 it provides a fantastic opportunity to buy preloved kit for amazing value, especially during these difficult times. So, to join up, please go to your App store and download the “Grassboots.Club" app. When registering, link to Little Green School (FOLG) and you’re then good to go. Once an item is bought, contact the donater via the in-app messenger to arrange a collection time at the school gates...easy! This community focussed initiative gives the school and parents a great opportunity to recycle more, reduce waste and the majority of every sale goes towards fundraising targets for FOLG... so please join up and start donating and buying!
For more information please go to: www.grassboots.club or Facebook / Instagram @grassboots.club
Stationery sets
If you missed out on ordering stationery sets we have received new stock and will be opening the opportunity to order on PTA events again - the introductory price has unfortunately finished so packs will now be priced at a very competitive £8 (still far cheaper than you can source on the high street!) and can be ordered via: www.pta-events.co.uk/folg. Information of what is contained in the packs can be found at this link.
Second hand uniform
Good quality second hand uniform can be ordered from Faye via folg-uniform@littlegreen.herts.sch.uk - most items are just 50p. Send an email outlining the items you wish to order - remember to include sizes and your child's class - you will then receive an email to let you know when your items are ready to collect from the school office.
Upcoming events
Sponsored Fun Run: Friday 31st March - details to follow

NOTES:
Please do show kindness to everyone when using all of the paths to and from school. The end of the day is always a busy time and, as requested by parents, we do have a 2-way system. Many thanks for supporting the community.
CAR PARK REMINDER
Just a polite reminder that parents should not be driving into the car park for any reason. Only Blue Badge holders should be accessing the car park. Thank you.
