Fantastic First aiders in Crew Mcloughlin🚑
To help with our expedition learning ‘How can a healthy lifestyle impact our body and mind?‘ we have participated in mini first aid training today! 🤩 What an amazing skill to have! Â
We took part in some basic first aid training today. We practised skills such as putting an unresponsive casualty into the recovery position; how to assess a casualty using DR ABC; and even how to safely perform abdominal thrusts (or the Heimlich manoeuvre) to dislodge something blocking the airway.
First Steps into First Aid – 23/05/22
As part of our expedition ‘How can a healthy lifestyle impact our body and mind?‘ we took part in some basic first aid training today. We practised skills such as putting an unresponsive casualty into the recovery position; how to assess a casualty using DR ABC; and even how to safely perform abdominal thrusts (or the Heimlich manoeuvre) to dislodge something blocking the airway. The bit that surprised us all though was how tiring (and hard) chest compressions were, especially when doing them for a minute!
Monday 23rd in Crew MI
Children concentrating on their books via accelerated reader 🙂 Some great reading by all in Crew MI.
Super Scooting!
Over the past week, we’ve been practicing our super scooting skills! After having Chris come to visit us and teach us some new tricks, we’ve really enjoyed being able to practice these skills at break and lunch times – look at those smiles 😁
Scoot to school fun! 🛴
We had so much fun on our scooter training yesterday. Thanks Chris 🙌🏼
Crew MI 20th May
What a great week it has been… Crew MI have worked extremely hard this week and have done some new and exciting things.
This week we broke a world record by joining in with a Timestable Rockstars challenge. We joined schools from across the country in a dance warm and timestable challenge. Check out these moves…
In science this week we have been very busy learning about the circulatory system. We even got to actually dissect a heart. It was fascinating to actually see in real life all that we had learnt about the heart and be able to identify the different parts. We then acted out the journey our blood takes around the body.
Our HOWLs have also really improved this week which we are all really proud of. Have a great weekend everyone 🙂
Expeditionary learning
After a super busy SATs week last week, we have now started catching up with our expedition ‘How can a healthy lifestyle impact your body and mind?’ hook week. Here are some pieces of artwork we are proud of. Every single piece is beautiful but here are just a few!
In DT we did a blind food tasting session and had a go at tasting food we had never tasted before! Our reactions to certain food were a picture! We then challenged ourselves to a game of ready steady cook and were given 3 ingredients to create a simple dish. We made some sugar cookies and discussed why they are unhealthy.
EYFS playground is ready!
The area is finally ready!!
We would like to invite you to a stay and explore session with your child at either 8.45am or 2.15pm on Monday 23rd May.
Feel free to attend either session with your child. Staff will be around to speak to and guide children into school in the morning and then out of school for home in the afternoon.
You will be able to look around our exciting new area and explore the wonderful equipment with your child. We will be greeting all parents and children at the normal blue gates (front of school) at both times, where the ribbon will be cut and the area will be open for the children to explore.
The children will then be dropped off and picked up from the main blue gates after the opening.
Important information
The new equipment installed is specifically designed for children working in the EYFS (between 3 and 6 years of age). This means that unfortunately, older children are not permitted to use the equipment due to height and weight restrictions. We kindly ask that when dropping off and collecting your child from the EYFS, older siblings DO NOT climb or play on the equipment due to health and safety reasons. We also ask that EYFS children do not play on the equipment before or after school. The local park is a short walk away if your child would like to play on park equipment out of school hours. To ensure that the new equipment is only used during school hours by EYFS children, members of school staff will monitor the playground and ask children to come off the playground equipment if they are seen playing on it. We thank you for your cooperation on this matter.
Thank you for your support, we look forward to seeing you on Monday!
