….well they were all subjects of a busy day of SOLE work last Friday at Greenfield!
We had many great SOLE sessions last week and a particularly busy day of sessions on Friday where questions about railway factories, humour in performance, the biggest living things on planet earth, the worlds greatest toys and what you’d need to win the Tour de France were all were explored.
Did you know that one of the largest living things on earth is the giant sequoia, also known as General Sherman tree, that can be found located in California’s Sequoia National Park. Look how big it is…! ( with a volume of over 52,508 cubic feet! )

We were very pleased to welcome Dom and Alec from Highbury College in Portsmouth to Greenfield, as well as colleagues from Durham University and Newcastle University. It was an interesting day of observations, questions and ideas! We all had so many questions and ideas we want to explore about learning….good job the visitors came on a Friday and we all had the weekend to rest our minds after all of our many questions and SOLE ideas!
We received this lovely message:
“awesome day – thanks so much for your hospitality and allowing us to witness the great work you are doing! Truly inspiring!”
It’s great to be working with partners across the country and in places such as Australia, Holland and California to influence teaching and learning.
We are really looking forward to another day of exciting activity and a special, very important visitor, on Monday 12th May. Watch this space….
