Becky Green – an inspiration!

1st July 2024Laura Godley

What a fantastic way to kick start our sport week with a GB Freestyler Kayaker! Becky Green inspired children this morning with her passion for kayaking, at such a young age she has achieved so much! Our children practised some key skills and exercises to get their bodies moving.

On Wednesday it was a lovely afternoon to play a game of cricket! We thoroughly enjoyed playing and displayed great sportsmanship, as always, against the 5 other schools. Preston stood out and was my player of the match! We all definitely showcased skills learnt in PE lessons!

Some lovely moments captured…

Today, we were very lucky to take part in a wonderful experience brought to us by M&M productions, The Jungle Book. Many of us knew the story of Mowgli and it was fantastic to see the story brought to life!

Crew MI makes a fruit salad

20th June 2024Emily Ibbotson

Today in our DT lesson, we learnt about the different cooking techniques and then had a go at following a recipe to make a fruit salad. We learnt how to hold a knife safely and ensured that we washed our hands before we started. We then ensured we tidied and washed up after ourselves. Finally, we went outside in the sunshine and enjoyed eating it.

Art in MI

17th June 2024Stacey McClare

Some of us started working with water colours this afternoon in our art session. We used water colours to paint our own bees 🙂 We were all super focussed and loved doing this after a morning of assessments.

The other half of MI worked independently on some sketching. Children used a step by step clip to create their own drawing of a bee. There were some great first drafts 🙂 We can’t wait for our final versions!

Computing in Crew MI continues…

13th June 2024Emily Ibbotson

Today we continued with our how to be safe online unit and focussed on online communication. We discussed what different forms of communication we can do online and then we explored the advantages and disadvantages of online communication. We discussed why some people use emojis, memes and gifs to communicate and even had a go at creating some of our own. We watched a clip which showed us the importance of asking permission from someone before posting pictures etc… Next, we looked at some different scenarios and judged whether the comments were negative and positive. We discussed the impact that negative comments have on people’s mental health and turned the negative comments into more positive ones. Finally, we talked about what to do if we came across any negative online communication.
