Y5 Swimming 🏊‍♀️

20th April 2022Lauren Marsh

Morning all,

Y5 swimming commences this Friday for the next 12 weeks. Y5 children can come to school in their swimming kit ready as this makes it easier when we arrive at the pool – swimming costumes for girls, trunks for boys and a towel. Girls I would also recommend having your hair up or bringing a bobble with you. Please don’t forget to pack your undies for coming home in!

Y5 will be leaving for swimming lessons at 8:45am so if children could be at school promptly this will massively help getting to the session on time, doors will be open for Y5 from 8:35am.

Happy Swimming! 👍

LKS2 Hook Day 1 (19.4.22) 🍭🍬

19th April 2022Simon Gerrard

Today, LKS2 have been figuring out their guiding question for the Summer Expedition. We played a game of hangman to figure out what it was. This was great fun trying to guess what it could be and we managed to get there!

After having the Guiding Question revealed, Why is the history of sugar not so sweet?, we started our KWL by writing down what we knew about sweets and what we would like to know. It was great to hear questions like why does sugar energise us, how does sugar melt in water and who discovered sugar? LKS2 can’t wait to find these out over the next few weeks.

Finally, Year 3 and 4 then watched some videos about how sweets are made. We were mesmerised by how rock was made, as well as candy canes. We even wondered if we would be able to visit a sweet factory or make our own. Keep your eyes peeled! 👀👀

Happy Easter Crew Shields

1st April 2022Ruth Shields

A huge well done to Crew Shields for this last term. It’s been busy but we’ve crammed lots of learning in and I’m confident this will continue next term. Have a well deserved rest and be safe. Hope you have a wonderful Easter Break.

Final Week of expedition – 1/4/22

1st April 2022Ruth Shields

Wow! It has been such a busy week in Crew Shields as we completed our final products. I was extremely impressed with the children’s dedication to bringing items in for their design. They conducted themselves in a mature and safe manner to ensure they kept not only themselves safe but also others.

I am beyond proud of how they have done and we’re super excited for you to see the final product! No doubt you’ll be as impressed as myself and Mrs Smith are with them.

A great day had by all at Tropical World. Some great questions and discussions as we walked around. Lovely to hear the children discussion their learning while observing animals we have discussed during our expedition lessons.
