UKS2 Final Product – Summer 2022

I can’t believe that we have come to the end of another Expedition and completed another fantastic final product. Our expedition for this term was ”How can a healthy lifestyle impact our body and mind?” We completed a history, science and DT case study. These subjects allowed us to explore how medicine has changed, the circulatory system and our cooking and baking skills. The children marvelled at the weird and wonderful things used to treat illnesses during the plague. They were even given the opportunity to gain a basic first aid certificate. During DT, they loved cooking and especially the tasting of the food. The children have been fortunate to have lots of opportunities to do hands on learning.

Our final product was to create an informative video for the public and as this was a trust product, we were all given a section to complete. Carcroft were allocated the mental health section of the video and I know this is a topic we spend lots of time on as we understand the importance of good mental health.

At the moment, we have been unable to confirm where this video will be played on a permanent basis but this is being discussed and negotiated. Once this has been confirmed, we will ensure that we inform you of this.

We hope you enjoy our Mental Health video for our final product

Crew Fox Final Word 2022

This week, our children presented their Final Word presentations to crew leaders, teachers friends and family 🥰. They spent hours putting their google slides together to present their character growth, academic success and beautiful work to their parents😃. So many of them were nervous to do this but still managed to present with confidence… we were so proud! 🤩

Family Picnic Thursday 21st July, 1pm

Don’t forget our end of Year Family Picnic on Thursday 21st July at 1pm.

GATES WILL OPEN AT 12.45PM TO ENSURE THERE ISN’T A SURGE OF PEOPLE QUEUING AT 1PM. CLASSROOM DOORS WILL SHUT AND GATES WILL BE LOCKED AT 1.15PM TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF OUR CHILDREN. CHILDREN WILL BE SIGNED OUT OF CLASS OVER TO THEIR RESPONSIBLE ADULT BEFORE THEY ATTEND THE PICNIC.

Please bring a picnic and a blanket (no alcohol, vapes, smoking or dogs permitted on site). All children who usually have a dinner including the children who normally have packed lunches and have paid for a dinner will be provided with the lunch that they have ordered to bring out to the picnic. All other children should bring their packed lunch as usual.

The Y6 leavers parade will take place at 2.30pm. If you wish to leave and come back for this you are more than welcome to do so. 

We hope to see you all there!

Y6 Performance 5:30 cancellation

Dear Y6 parents, unfortunately due to the weather, we have made the decision to cancel our 5:30 performance Tuesday. Quite a few children have shared they’re not coming back to school for the evening show. However, our 2pm performance will continue to go ahead. Thank you for your understanding. 

Day 2 of Crew Fox cooking

Today was time for the main course… traffic light chicken kebabs! Before our cooking and preparation began, we learned about cross contamination. This was important to understand so that we are staying safe whilst cooking.

First we made the marinade using paprika, tomato ketchup and chopped garlic. Then we chopped the chicken in to large chunks before we marinated it thoroughly. Whilst some of us were chopping chicken, others were chopping peppers into large chunks. Finally, we created the skewers and cooked them in the oven. Delicious!

UKS2 Final Product Celebration

Dear parents/carers,


Our summer expedition final product is now ready to be celebrated. The children across UKS2 have worked alongside Green Top, Plover and Norton Juniors to produce an educational video to answer the guiding question, ‘How can a healthy lifestyle impact your body and mind?’ We would like to invite you into school to celebrate this video with our pupils on Wednesday 20th July at 8:50am. A selection of refreshments will be available whilst children share their final product and also share their learning from the whole summer expedition.   

Please fill in the google form to confirm your attendance. We hope you can make it!

Thank you

Soup making!

Today during DT, we made our own tomato soup… from scratch! We followed the recipe and worked as mini crews to prepare the food before we began cooking. We were really patient with each other showing great HOWLs all morning.
