This week in writing we have been looking at adding describing words to our sentences . We also did some sentence builders and the children noticed that Ms Haddock had missed a full stop at the end of the sentence so they had to add it on. Ralphie got the post card this week for working hard and getting smart. Well done!
Today we celebrated red nose day
This week, we have been baking and decorating some cupcakes for Red Nose Day, and while doing this, we had discussions around fundraising and how baking and selling was one of the many ways we could raise money. We used visuals and videos to explain what Comic Relief is, and the children completed tasks based on money and feelings.
Here’s a selection of beautiful work from across the XP Trust!

Last week the children created beautiful Mother’s Day cards using their own handprints to form bright, blooming flowers, each one as unique as the child who made it. They also explored paint blowing, carefully guiding colours across the page to create some unique shapes. As they worked, we spoke about the special people in their lives—mums, grandmothers, and other loved ones. Showing off there progress with writing inside the cards themselves.
We learned about logos, designed one and painted it before sending them off to Comms to be made into a Podcast Logo. The winning entry was Alyssa with her beautiful, symmetric Butterfly! Her pointillism technique was amazing just like everyone else’s logos in Crew Ramsay. Here is our beautiful work…
We loved presenting our learning to families and friends yesterday and the children took such pride in their product. We hope our parents and carers were just as proud and loved listening to our podcast. We are proud to say we now have our own Carcroft Spotify channel for future expeditions across school!
