Today Stripes saw Macey hang another child’s coat up and Archie tidy up the construction blocks, even though he had not been playing with them! Stripes noticed that Aubree was helpful all day and showed kindness towards her friends by helping them with their learning activities. Aubree was our HOWL hero today!
Stripes was blown away by the pictures that Crew Nursery drew of him! The children showed good listening skills by following step-by-step instructions and they worked hard to concentrate on their learning!
Stripes also enjoyed playing ‘teachers’ with some of the children today. Penelope gathered some of her friends for a crew circle and played the crew leader. She reminded the children how they could be kind at school.
Crew nursery experienced a soft play session in the school hall this morning! They practised their climbing, balancing and jumping skills and they worked as mini-crews to build towers and complete obstacle courses. What lucky children!
We’ve been very busy today in Crew Welburn. We had a special visitor in this morning to help us with our artwork! Natasha Clarke is a local artist who was helping us to perfect our sketching and painting skills ready for our final products!
Then, this afternoon, we got to decorate our classroom ready for Christmas! 🎅🏼 It was very exciting and we loved being able to spend time building our relationships as a crew.
Over the next two days, KS1 children will be working with the talented artist Natasha Clarke to create artwork for their finished product.

We started the day by walking down to Adwick train station to get the 9:27 train into Doncaster 🚂 . Getting our steps in! We arrived at the station and then walked through town to get to the Danum Library, museum and art gallery 🖼. This was the first time for many of us 😀.
We began the learning with a workshop which was focused all around our expedition guiding question 🚂 🚊 🚆 .
After lunch, we toured the museum and then visited one of last years final product (When is it right to make a stand for what we believe in?) that is displayed in Frenchgate 👩🎨 👨🎨 🎨. We felt super proud today 🤩.
