Crew Welburn finished our transport models today and finally got to take our photo ready to send off to be created into a jigsaw! We’re so excited to see what our jigsaw comes out as, but for now, here’s a sneak peak!

Fun in the sun! ☀️
We’ve had lots of fun in the sunshine this week in Crew Welburn! We’ve made slides for dinosaurs, transported water using pipes and funnels, and even splashed our feet in our make shift paddling pools to cool off! The children are really developing their independence, curiosity and team work this week, and are working well together to explore how different things work – it is lovely to stand back and watch them forming strong friendships with each other!
The children have also been enjoying indoor provision, and are still excited by our story, Little Red Riding Hood. We spotted a wolf in school last night, so Leon decided to dress up as the Woodcutter to scare him away, and some of the boy and girls even made up a song to scare him off! We hope he doesn’t come back!
Sharing our expedition in reception
We loved having the opportunity to welcome our parents into the classroom this afternoon, and to share our learning journey so far with them! Our children spoke about their expedition, ‘We’re on the move!’ to their parents and shared everything they have learnt so far. The children were really proud of their learning and loved having the opportunity to show this off to their parents 🚗
Sharing our Expeditionary learning in LKS2 🌋⛰🌧🌍📖
This afternoon we welcomed lots of our grown ups into school to show them our current extraordinary expedition work, ‘Earth Shattering Events’, ‘What happens when nature strikes?’. We enjoyed sharing the work that we completed during Hook Week (making a volcano, earthquake simulation, walking through water and Earth Day celebrations!), as well as the Science (rocks and soils) and Geography (mountains) coverage from Case Study One.
We also got the opportunity to share our fabulous writing including our Lava recount and our broadcasting scripts.
Thank you to all of the grown ups (and newborn babies!) who came to share their child/rens learning this afternoon. It was lovely to see how proud the children were of the beautiful work that they have been producing.
We look forward to sharing the rest of our learning with you all in July at our COL Event on Wednesday 12th July! We hope to see you then! 😁
Feature Finding! 🔍🕵📖📝✏
This morning as part of our Expedition/The Write Stuff learning in Crew FE, we looked at the features of scripts. These included, a title, setting the scene, a list of people, a list of props, stage directions, a new line for a new speaker and the names written on the left, as well as a range of punctuation including brackets, colons and bullet points. We also discussed the audience and purpose of scripts. Next week, we are going to be writing our own broadcasting script informing others of the catastrophic earthquakes that occurred in Syria and Turkey earlier this year as part of our Expeditionary learning, ‘Earth Shattering Events’, ‘What happens when nature strikes?’. We will also hopefully be performing and recording these using a green screen at the end of the week, and hope to share these as part of our COL event later in the term! 📽
Fascinating Fossils 🦴🪨🦕
In Crew FE this afternoon we learnt all about fossils, fossilisation and dinosaurs! 🦴🪨🦕 As part of our learning we had a go at using some modelling clay and shells to create our own fossils!

Awesome Authors! 🌟📝
Last week in Crew FE I was blown away with the fabulous writing that the children were producing! They have shown that they are able to use expanded noun phrases with prepositions, onomatopoeia and time fronted adverbials! Great work Crew FE! I am excited to share this with your grown ups next Wednesday afternoon and I am sure you are too!
Super writers in Y1! ✏️
I have felt so proud this week of how far Crew Marsh has come with their independent writing. It has been great to see all of their amazing ideas and their new found confidence when putting pencil to paper. Special well done to my super writers of the session! 💕
