KS1 Beamish Trip. – Wednesday 15th June 2022

As part of our Summer Term expedition, the KS1 children are visiting the Beamish Museum in Durham.

The visit will be a full day where the children will have the opportunity to see what school was like in the past. Children will also have the opportunity to discover the games of the playground and take part in an infant lesson in the kindergarten of a Victorian school. Beamish also presents a unique insight into the living and working experiences of life in the Great North offering unrivalled learning opportunities.

Children will need to arrive at school by 7:45am

The coach will need to leave promptly at approximately 8:00am

Please ensure that children are wearing their RED Carcroft school uniform and sensible shoes (there will be a lot of walking !) The weather is also forecast to be quite hot, so children may want to have suncream applied.

Children will also need to bring a water bottle and a rucksack to carry their school-packed lunch in.

The children will be provided with a packed lunch from school and a small snack for the journey. Children do not need to bring any money, sweets or snacks.

The coach will return to Carcroft at about 5:00pm

Thanks

KS1 Team

Jubilee Celebrations!

We’ve had lots of fun celebrating the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee today in Crew Welburn! 💂🏽‍♀️👑 We’ve decorated biscuits in our Union Jack flag colours, bounced on the bouncy castles and had a delicious picnic. Even the rain couldn’t spoil our fun ☔️ We hope you enjoyed the celebrations as much as we did!

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 😁

Word Collecting

Today in Crew Welburn, we’ve had a focus on collecting adjectives for our writing. We are writing a description about our local area, so we took a walk to the park to listen to the sounds we could hear, and to describe what we could see. We wrote down loads of ideas and can’t wait to get writing tomorrow!

Crew Welburn, Crew Longley and Crew Godley Trip

As part of our Summer Term expedition, we would like to take the opportunity to take our KS1 children to the Beamish Museum in Durham. The visit will be a full day where the children will have the opportunity to see what school was like if they were five or six years old in the past. Children will also have the opportunity to discover the games of the playground and take part in an infant lesson in the kindergarten of a Victorian school. Beamish also presents a unique insight into the living and working experiences of life in the Great North offering unrivalled learning opportunities. 

Please ensure that children are wearing school uniforms and sensible shoes. Children will also need to bring a water bottle. 

The children will be provided with a packed lunch from school.

The trip is on Wednesday 15th June 2022. The coach will collect us from school at 8:00am and it will return at approximately 5:00pm depending on the traffic.

Children will need to be at school by 7:45am

Please note: All monies and consents need to be completed and paid via Parentpay no later than Wednesday 8th June 2022

The cost of the trip is £20.00. We are asking parents to pay £10.00 per child and the school will subsidise the remainder of the cost. Unfortunately, if we don’t receive enough money the trip will not go ahead.

We are looking forward to an exciting day. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any queries. 

Yours faithfully,

KS1 Crew

Hook week in Year 1!

This week in Year 1, we’ve been hooked into our new expedition: Diverse Doncaster, Where do we belong?

We’ve had a visit from our expert, Geoff, who showed us our school and the surrounding area using his drone…

Then we discovered a time capsule full of objects and photos from the past!

And finally, we experienced what our school would have been like in Victorian times! We learnt all about the rules and what happened if children didn’t follow them. It’s safe to say that we prefer our school now, not in the past!

We can’t wait to show you what else we get up to in this expedition!
