Today, Year 2 having been busy beavering away to prepare their passage presentations. They have been reflecting on the journey across KS1.
Remember to book a time slot to hear your child’s presentation.
As our amazing Year 2 children prepare to move onto Key Stage 2, we are asking them complete passage presentations to their adults. The presentation will reflect on their personal and school journey across Key Stage 1 and share their successes.
We would love to invite adults to come to school to share this journey. Please could you complete the form below to select the timeslots you are available to attend the presentation. We will endeavour to arrange appointments in the first choice slots but it may be necessary to utilise the second choice options. Please could we ask that different days are selected to try and ensure that we can accommodate as many people as possible.
We would also love to include photographs of your child from the past two years. If you would like to add a couple of photographs from home, please email these to [email protected] and we will add these to the presentation.
Please do not hesitate to speak to either of us if you have any questions.
Thank you once again for your support
Mr Longley and Mrs Godley
Crew Longley and Crew Godley have been working hard to perfect their line drawings of our school for our final product. We have developed our sketching skills, including shadow, tone and texture.
Today, some of our Year 1 and Year 2 children have took part in a rounders tournament at Campsmount School. The children showed how well Carcroft School work as a team, and were cheering each other on throughout the afternoon. Their crew building and communication skills really shone through today and made myself and Mrs Scott feel really proud of them! 😁 We can’t wait to try again next year after a little bit more practice as we think the team will be amazing! 🌟
As part of the Autumn Expedition, Key Stage 1 raised money to fund a community defibrillator. We are pleased to say this is now on-site and will be installed soon. Watch this space for our community launch event
What a fabulous day out we’ve had at Beamish! ☀️Travelling back in time to Durham, we had the opportunity to experience what life would have been like during the different eras, right back to the Victorian times. We explored the town with all of its wonderful shops and the bank, and we went into the different houses. We visited the dentist’s house and found out all about how the old toothbrushes were made. We certainly won’t want to think about the pig’s bottom at the same time as brushing our teeth!😬 We also got to experience a mining pit village and the cottages that would have been found in a village like this. We were amazed at the quaintness of the cottages and the thought of going to the toilet outside in the dark and cold. Our trip down the mine was also a real eye-opener, as we discovered the size if the mine and the conditions that the miners had to endure. We even met a miner who had worked at Bullcroft and Bentley! Our visit to the Victorian school was very different to our own school. The lessons were very different to ours at school (except the phonics!) and the teacher was very strict, but we still enjoyed them. We’ve had so much fun and have had lots of smiles on our faces all day.
KS1 have been putting their interviewing skills to the test! We were fortunate enough to interview Mrs Brentnall, a past pupil of Carcroft School, 77 years ago! Check out our Expedition page to find out more!
