Crew Robson were shocked at the amount of rubbish that had been dumped at the top of the school field. They worked hard to ensure it was cleaned up and ready for sport day in a few weeks time!

Crew Godley – Nature Ambassadors
The whole of Crew Godley were absolutely fantastic during our recent presentation with Mr Sprakes. Every single pupil rose to the occasion and demonstrated just how much effort and dedication they had put into their learning. They showed real courage when reading aloud, supporting one another and taking pride in sharing their ideas, even when it felt challenging.
They spoke with growing confidence and clarity, articulating their thoughts in a way that truly engaged their audience. What stood out most was their ability to explain, in thoughtful detail, how they developed the quad area. They didn’t just describe what they had done – they explained the reasoning behind their choices, showing a deep understanding of how to create and sustain a biodiverse environment.
It was clear that they had developed not only their knowledge but also crew and communication skills throughout the project. Watching them present with such enthusiasm, ownership, and pride was a genuinely special moment. I was absolutely bursting with pride at everything they have achieved.
Crew Challenge
Crew Gray have been working hard to build their teamwork and communication skills, especially during our Crew Challenges!
Crew in Action at Dodgeball Tournament
What an incredible afternoon of dodgeball at Armthorpe Academy! Our Carcroft Crew put in a brilliant performance, battling their way through tough competition to secure an impressive second-place finish.
Facing strong opposition from 10 schools, the team showed determination, teamwork, and resilience throughout the event. After a series of highly competitive matches, Carcroft reached the final, where they finished as proud runners-up to Kirk Smeaton C of E Primary School, who took home the gold medals.
Dodgeball Tournament Success
A huge well done to our Year 3 and 4 pupils from. who recently took part in an exciting dodgeball tournament against other local schools. The children showed fantastic crew work, determination, and sportsmanship throughout the event.
After a series of great matches, our team proudly finished 2nd place out of 10 schools! This is a brilliant achievement and everyone represented the school incredibly well. We are very proud of their effort, enthusiasm, and positive attitude during the tournament.
Crew at the Park
Crew Godley enjoyed a visit to the local park where they took part in a range of fun crew-building activities. The children worked together to complete different challenges, showing great teamwork, communication, and encouragement towards one another. Crew Godley represented the school brilliantly and had a wonderful time learning and having fun together.
The Triangle of Risk
Today in Crew Godley we have begun to explore staying safe on the road, this is everyone’s job! By using the ‘Triangle of Risk’ we have discovered that road safety has three important parts – the road, the vehicle, and the person.
- The Road – Is it wet or dry? Busy or quiet? Are there signs and crossings to help us stay safe?
- The Vehicle – Is it working properly? Are seatbelts on? Are bikes and scooters in good condition?
- The Person – Are we paying attention? Wearing a helmet? Following the rules and making safe choices?
We explored these three sides to see how their actions matter. Even small safe choices – like looking both ways, wearing a helmet and putting your phone away!
Scooter Fun!
We’ve been making the most of the beautiful spring sunshine by heading outdoors to develop our scooter skills! The children have been practising their balance, co-ordination and control as they weave, glide and steer with growing confidence. It’s been wonderful to see their determination, teamwork and big smiles as they challenge themselves and cheer each other on.
Exploring Positive Mental Health in Crew
Crew Godley have focused on positive mental health this morning in crew as we got moving with a fantastic workout inspired by Joe Wicks! We learned how exercise helps to boost our mood, increase our energy, and keep our minds healthy as well as our bodies. As we jumped, stretched, and powered through our workout, we could feel the difference movement makes, releasing feel-good endorphins and helping us feel calm, focused, and happy. We talked about how staying active is a great tool we can use whenever we need a lift. Crew Godley showed brilliant enthusiasm, resilience, and teamwork as we worked out our bodies and strengthened our minds!
Exploring how to stay safe online during Safer Internet Day
During Safer Internet Day, Crew Godley became digital detectives as we worked with Natterhub to explore how our data is used online. We learned that every time we go online, we leave a digital footprint and that our information can be collected, shared, and sometimes used in ways we might not expect. Through discussions and activities, we discovered why it’s important to keep personal information private, think carefully before we click, and make safe, responsible choices on the internet. Crew Godley showed fantastic maturity as we built our understanding of how to stay smart, safe, and secure online.
