Exploring capacity!

Last week in Crew Welburn, we were exploring capacity! We used new vocabulary to describe how much water was in the containers and compared how much each container could hold. We had lots of fun!

E-Safety Day 2023

On Tuesday 7th February we celebrated Safer Internet Day 2023, attached are the slides we created to showcase our thoughts and ideas. 

Internet Safety or E-Safety is an integral part of children’s education in today’s digital world and is embedded in their learning at school. At Carcroft School we want to help our parents and children improve their own understanding of e-safety issues so they can learn to use the internet and all digital media in a safe and secure way.

As a parent/carer you’ll know how important the internet is to children – they use it to learn, play, socialise and express themselves. But the technology children use every day can seem a bit daunting and you might worry about the risks your child can face online – such as bullying, contact from strangers or the possibility of them seeing illegal or inappropriate content.  

To try and help parents/carers with the fast moving and changing world of internet and social media we’ve suggested a few internet sites. You can also read/download the documents for further information and advice.

  •  Thinkyouknow (advice from the National Crime Agency to stay safe online)
  • Internet matters (support for parents and carers to keep their children safe online)
  • Parent info (support for parents and carers to keep their children safe online)
  • Child net (help and advice for parents and carers)
  • Net-aware (support for parents and careers from the NSPCC)

Pizza Party!

As part of our expedition in Crew Welburn, we have been looking at how to keep our bodies healthy. As part of this, we have explored making healthy pizzas! Thank you to all of the grown ups who came into school to taste test our pizzas! The children were all really excited and loved having you in!

Problem solving super stars!

The children were exploring the drainpipes and stands in outdoor provision this morning and I was amazed at how well they worked together to problem solve! They manoeuvred the pipes to create a shoot for a ball to roll down, and reflected each time on whether or not it had worked, and improved it to make the ball stay in the shoot and roll further. I was amazed at the perseverance and concentration form everyone to make a fantastic shoot for the ball!
