This afternoon we discovered a pumpkin in our tuff tray! We asked Miss Welburn to cut a hole in the top so that we could explore what was on the inside…we found lots of slimy, gloopy, gooey pulp to squish between our hands! We also discovered lots of pumpkin seeds inside which we saved to see if new pumpkins will grow from when we plant them outside!
This week in Crew Welburn, we are focussing on the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. We read in the story that the bears were making porridge for their breakfast, and wondered what this tasted like. We got to work straight away making Mummy Bear’s sweet porridge, Daddy Bear’s plain porridge, and Baby Bear’s porridge that was just right. We had a vote at the end and we decided that most of us preferred Mummy Bear’s sweet porridge! 🥣🐻
Don’t forget to sign up for the Halloween Witches and Wizards disco, taking place tomorrow.
If you would like your child to attend please ensure you have signed up before 3pm today! Unfortunately we can not accept payment any later due to organising refreshments and staffing.
All children will enter through their classroom doors tomorrow for the disco at 3.30pm where they will be registered if payment has been made. We ask that children are collected at 4.30pm from their classroom doors.
Preparations for Young Voices will begin on Tuesday 1st November (3:00-4:00) for children in KS2. Please ensure that your child is signed up via ParentPay to secure their place. The club will be FREE to attend and further information about our Young Voices performance will be sent out in due course. This event is always such a great success and it would be fantastic if as many children as possible are able to attend our rehearsals weekly ready for our performance at Sheffield Arena in January 2023!
Below are the links for the children to use to continue to learn our songs for music whilst they are at home.

Miss Lee helped LKS2 get into the spirit of Halloween a little early this year. She took a number of our Year 3 and 4s for a treat after a busy half term by making these fantastic pumpkin decorations! 🎃 Thank you Miss Lee! 😆
LKS2 have been working on creating propaganda for the War effort. We have learned this week about the roles of women during the Second World War and thought it would be a great idea to encourage more help for the effort. We learned that these posters were important in making women want to help with the War effort and fill the important roles that men had left behind.
We certainly think that these posters would have encouraged more people to help during the Second World War!
It has been a busy last week but we have finally made it to half term. Have a great half term everyone and enjoy our first ever weekly highlights video!

Crew Shields have really had to engage their brains this morning in Maths as we tackled some sums that required more than one exchange. This was made a little trickier especially when there was a zero in the number because we have to exchange from another column. Despite being tricky for a Friday morning, it didn’t faze them and they have given it 100% as always. Great effort everyone!
