A great crew session in MI

16th January 2023Stacey McClare

Such a great positive start in MI this morning during our caring curriculum crew. We started to talk about why it is important to be both physically and mentally healthy. We discussed our favourite sports and activities before discussing what happens to our heart rate during exercise. We then took part in a Joe Wicks workout! This really did put lots of smiles on our faces and set us up for the day ahead. We then worked in mini crews to play sport charades. A great positive attitude by all as well as supporting each other to work collaboratively! Such great howls shown. Our debrief allowed us to discuss the things we need to make a healthy happy body 🙂

A ’YES’ morning

14th January 2023Hannah McLoughlin

On Friday in Crew Mcloughlin we had a YES morning 😬 For our crew check in, miss got us to think of one question each to ask and she would say “Yes” to everything (within reason, of course). Our favourite request was playing on scooters at break time.

Completing Crazy Circuits!

13th January 2023Sophie Elmer

This week as part of our Expedition, ‘The Power of Life’, children have really enjoyed creating, exploring and investigating circuits in Crew Pashley. Initially, children were given the key components and left to work as mini crews to create a simple circuits. Some crew members were a whizz at this and completed it within record time! Throughout the week we then explored what happened when additional components were added such as multiple bulbs and multiple batteries. We also spent some time exploring conductors and insulators and the affect that they had on the circuit. Ask us about it and we will happily share our findings! Next week, we will be writing a report all about it!

Attendance Awards

13th January 2023Sophie Elmer

BIG well done to all of these children who achieved 97% or more for their attendance score in the Autumn term! 🙌 All children were given a certificate, a chocolate reindeer (yummy!) and a HUGE round of applause from all of LKS2! Some of the children who achieved 100% are also very much looking forward to receiving a McDonalds this half term as a celebration of their dedication to not missing a day at school! In addition to these rewards, the parents of those children who achieved 97% or more in Autumn 2 were entered into a special prize draw …to win a £10 voucher to spend at Asda! All names were placed in a ‘hat’ and a name was selected at random! All of LKS2 were pleased to announce that it went to Isaacs mum! Well done!  The hard decision now is who will get to spend it?!… Isaac or his parents! Either way, enjoy! Watch out for more exciting rewards  and prizes  this half term, and remember you have to be in it (school every day!) to win it!

In year 2 we have been reading the book Stan and Mabel as part of our new expedition. We have done lots of independent writing and have been practicing our beautiful handwriting. We loved sharing our work with year 1 today.
