UKS2 Final Product Celebration

8th July 2022Olivia Fox

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

KS2 Sports day

5th July 2022Lauren Marsh

KS2 Sports day:

Gates will open at 9:00am and close at 9:10am.

Children will go round the carousel of activities in their teams to try and earn the most points.

At the end of the sports day, children will sit in their teams on the grass for the winner to be announced, and parents can spectate this on the muga pitch. Children will then walk past for a last goodbye before entering back into school. The gate will be opened for parents at 11:30am.

There will be a barrier that parents are not allowed past, in order to keep our children safe and keep the activities moving.

Thank you for your continued support

James Dasaolu Visit (4.7.22) 🏃🇬🇧

5th July 2022Simon Gerrard

Carcroft was lucky to have a visit from the second fastest man in Britain – James Dasaolu. We were lucky to hear about the journey James took to reach the top of his sport and even compete at two Olympic Games.

James was very inspiring as he spoke about his lows and how it motivated him to reach the highs, which led to him setting the second fastest time in British history for the 100m. He ran a staggering 9.91 seconds, which was the equivalent of 25mph.

The children listened amazingly well and were hanging on James’ every word. They loved asking a variety of questions and some were unique, which James had never been asked before. After the the questions, each year group was lucky to have a circuit training session with James. He definitely put Years 1 to 6 through their paces.

We will be handing out the gold, silver and bronze awards when we receive them in due course. This should be soon.

Check out our video below of our awesome visitor:

The whole school had an assembly with James this afternoon, and now each crew will participate in a physical activity with James! Such an inspiration to our young athletes in the making.
