In our experience writing lesson today, we packed our suitcase by folding clothes and then walked to Italy where we listened to an Orchestra play.
We cant wait to use all of our ideas in our writing!

It has been a busy first day back as we caught on all the delightful things that happened over Christmas but also getting back into our routine. In Crew Shields, we find routines and structure very important so essential that we get settled in quickly.
We started the day with Crew and finding out what Santa delivered. Lots of very lucky children this Christmas.
We then started into reading which is a new text about the eye. We reminded ourselves about the importance of text marking and how this can support our comprehension.
During Expedition, we started with some hook activities to get us immersed in our learning. Absolutely great to see we have some history experts in the room. I may need to use that knowledge as we move through this expedition. We even started to infer what we think the guided questions may be based on what we’ve done so far. The big reveal will happen on Friday and no doubt we’ll be able to have some more guesses at the question.
Today has been extremely exciting down in nursery… it’s been our first day with Miss McGlone as our teacher! We have been superstars showing her how well we take turns with one another, treat each other with kindness and we REALLY impressed her with how well we could tidy up after ourselves! Miss McGlone is so excited to be your teacher this year ☺️





Today was the last day of Crew Gerrard, so we watched Christmas films, coloured in and just had a great time. It was a strange, surreal day and it was, unfortunately, time to say goodbye. You are an awesome, crazy bunch and I will miss Crew Gerrard very much!
I would just like to thank everyone for their kindness and generosity shown towards myself, whether it is this or previous years. It’s been a blast!

What a fantastic afternoon we have had! We have laughed, danced and played games. So much FUN!




It’s been such a lovely afternoon in Crew Shields as we enjoyed our Christmas party.
Party food, musical statues, pass the parcel, four corners and even popping balloons with their bottoms. Who never trying to pop a balloon with your bottom could be so funny?! haha It was even better that they were good sports and completed their forfeits. Maybe next time, all the balloons will have a forfeit considering they were happy to participate.
It’s been a great way to unwind after a term of hard work from all the children.
We have loved making our wood cookies for our trees at home.













Just to clarify, the children can come in their PE kit ready to get changed for the Christmas Party!
