Crew Welburn’s new toy!

We have received a new device in Crew Welburn which we are absolutely loving! It is called a yoto and we use it to listen to our favourite stories and songs. So far, we have listened to ‘Funnybones’, ‘The Highway Rat’ and ‘Animal Stories’. We have listened carefully and acted out parts of the stories with funny actions. We can’t wait to explore all of the other stories we have!

Cookies – Yum

Crew Shields have further developed their baking skills by baking some low calorie cookies. We also made a batch of gluten free cookies. Surprisingly, we all preferred the gluten free cookies.

Crew Shields are always happy when there is some kind of food involved in their day. 😋

Desert fun in MI

Today we made 2 deserts, a healthy take on a muffin and a cookie. Once we had followed our recipe and made both deserts, we looked at which ingredients were included in each recipe and thought about which one was the healthiest. We also thought back to the food groups we had previously discussed. We really did enjoy eating these today! Tomorrow we will make our healthy pancakes which will be the final part of our cooking week.

KS1 Sports day:

Gates will open at 1:00pm and close at 1:10pm.

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 2:30pm.

Once the children have exited back to school, parents can meet them back at their classroom door to take them home.

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) 🏃🇬🇧

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.
