We’ve been working with bigger numbers in Crew Welburn this week – numbers to 50! We worked hard as our table crews to make the numbers we were given and to put them in order from smallest to greatest.
Crew Welburn’s Pancake Day!
Today, we used our maths lesson to look at weights and measurements, and to make delicious pancakes! We worked hard in mini crews to measure out the ingredients and to follow the instructions. We even learnt how important it is to get down to eye level when measuring liquids in jugs. We hope you enjoy our photos as much as we enjoyed eating our pancakes!
KS1’s Ocean Adventure
Children had an amazing time learning about the oceans, life in the oceans and sharks during their visit to The Deep today.
We took a deep dive under the oceans in one of the most spectacular aquariums in the world 🌎 🐠 🦈🦑 🦀
We enjoyed a fantastic workshop exploring creatures great and small which reside in the oceans. We also modelled some diving equipment – our teacher couldn’t believe how smart we were with the background knowledge we’ve already acquired within a week of launching our expedition. We worked hard which in turn made sure we extended our knowledge of the oceans. Our crews had had a wonderful time. They children were a credit to the school 😊Keep on eye out for TWITP for some more snaps of the day 🦈
KS1 Visit to The Deep tomorrow 13.01.2022
Years 1 and 2 are visiting The Deep tomorrow, in Hull.
The coach will leave school promptly in the morning, we are aiming for 8.50am once we have all children in school and registered. Classroom doors will open at 8.25am in the morning to enable us to ensure the children are ready in time.
Please note, children MUST come to school in uniform, including their red / jumper cardigan. Children can wear comfortable, sensible footwear, for example, trainers or boots. Children who are on school dinners do not need a packed lunch, this is provided by school. The children have chosen their sandwich option.
When the coach returns to school we will take the children back to their Crew base to dismiss. This will ensure that all children are kept safe, as you will appreciate dismissing children from the coach onto a busy playground and close to a main road is far from ideal, so please be patient with us. Your children’s safety is our priority.
Welcome back KS1!
KS1 Crews were so excited to launch their new expeditions this week, ‘The Circle of Life – How will what I do today impact the world tomorrow?’
The children were hooked into their learning by working together as artists and sculptors to create their own own ocean dioramas, craft sea creatures and participated in a virtual author workshop to learn how to create some of the beautiful illustrations that we found in our core text ‘The Blue Giant’. We have some budding artists! Keep you eyes peeled for the finished ocean dioramas on Monday!
This week we visit The Deep, in Hull. We can’t wait to go on an ocean adventure!
Have a lovely weekend, everyone 😊
PE Day Update
Crew Welburn’s PE days are on a Tuesday and a Friday for this half term 😊
KS1 New Expedition
This half term the children will be starting their new expedition – Circle of Life: How will what I do today affect the world tomorrow?
As part of this expedition the children will be completing three case studies:
- Case Study 1: Science – Animals and their lifecycles
- Case Study 2: Geography – Weather, seasons, seas and continents
- Case Study 3 : Art – Recycled sculpture.
Next week the children will be visiting The Deep. Please could we ask that all consents have been completed and lunches ordered. Please contact the office team if you have any queries.
As always, we would love to hear from any local experts. We would really like to hear from anybody who has knowledge of birds, as part of the Big School’s Birdwatch, animals or any geographers.
Throughout the expedition, you can visit the expedition website to see what the children have been learning about and seeing pictures and examples of the completed work.
If your child is isolating, this week’s work can be found by clicking this link. There are some hook activities to complete along with the children in school.

We’ve been very busy today in Crew Welburn. We had a special visitor in this morning to help us with our artwork! Natasha Clarke is a local artist who was helping us to perfect our sketching and painting skills ready for our final products!
Then, this afternoon, we got to decorate our classroom ready for Christmas! 🎅🏼 It was very exciting and we loved being able to spend time building our relationships as a crew.
