Crew Challenge
Children in Crew Godley took on an exciting Crew Challenge – to work together and build the tallest free-standing tower that could hold an object for 10 seconds! Using teamwork, creativity, and problem-solving, every crew rose to the challenge. The results were fantastic, with towers of all shapes and sizes showing just how much we can achieve when we collaborate and show determination.
Staff Day Crew Challenge
Just as we expect our children to work together, communicate effectively, and adapt with creativity, we placed ourselves in the same position. What is good enough for the children is good enough for us – showing that crew culture is for everyone, not just pupils.
Our Carcroft Crew Bake Off brought teamwork to life, with everyone taking on a role and responsibility to make it a success. Clear communication and smooth handovers proved essential, while creativity and adaptability helped turn simple recipes into something special. Most importantly, the challenge reminded us that fun, shared activities strengthen crew spirit, boost morale, and highlight the power of collaboration.
Crew Ramsay Fun In P.E!
Crew Ramsay has had a blast in their first P.E session this week! We used teamwork and sportsmanship which we have been learning about through our crew curriculum. We all showed respectful communication as part of our ‘Being Kind’ HOWL.
Year 4 Road Safety!
Year 4 pupils participated in a special road safety course today, equipping them with essential skills for navigating roads safely. The engaging and practical session focused on crucial pedestrian skills, including safely crossing the road using the Green Cross Code, understanding different crossings, and identifying potential dangers posed by traffic. The students were enthusiastic participants, and we encourage parents to reinforce these important lessons at home to help their children develop responsible road habits.
Carcroft Crew Graffiti Project
Today we worked together as a whole school crew to design and create our very own graffiti wall! With the support of expert graffiti artists, we learned new skills and used our creativity to celebrate everything that makes Crew special. From sharing ideas and sketching designs, to choosing colours and spraying the final masterpiece, we collaborated as one team to bring our vision to life. Our graffiti wall now stands as a bold reminder that when we work together, we can achieve something amazing!
Colour run 2025
We were so excited that every child was able to join in the colour run so we got to enjoy the experience as a full crew with the rest of school. Some of us were a little bit nervous but in true style of crew, the children supported and encouraged each other and had the best time! What a fantastic way to end our week!
Rollercoaster Crew Challenge
What does Crew mean to you?
This week in Crew Robson we have spent our mornings answering the guiding question “What does Crew mean to you?”
We spent a lot of time reflecting on where we are now and where we want to be by the time we are in Year 6. To capture this we made a time capsule. Everyone filled in their Crew identity, we attached a piece of string to see how much we grow and finally added a picture of us.
Finally we sealed the box which will be reopened in July 2029, just before we leave Carcroft!
What do our HoWLs look like in crew?
This week, in crew, we have have been busy exploring our HoWLs (Habits of Work and Learning). Together, we thought carefully about different scenarios and discussed whether they showed Working Hard, Getting Smart or Being Kind. It was fantastic to see the children reflecting on their choices, sharing ideas with one another, and recognising how our HoWLs help us to grow not just as learners, but as kind and responsible members of our Crew.
