Strengthening Crew

30th August 2024Laura Hamill

This week, our Crew Guiding Question was: How can crew be strengthened through acts of service?

We discussed what it meant to be part of a crew and how we could make this stronger by doing an act of service for others – something that would make them smile! 🙂 Following this, we decided that we were going to bake a tasty treat and create positive postcards to hand out to people around school that have done something kind that we are thankful for. This included the ladies in the office who work tirelessly to keep the school running, the ladies in the kitchen who prepare all our meals and some of the teachers who we feel helped us on a personal level.

We certainly felt like a solidified, happy crew once we had finished!

Space Art

30th August 2024Laura Hamill

Today, Crew Hamill proved what fabulous artists they are by fully engaging themselves in a painting of either the Sun or the Moon. After researching the artist Andy Warhol, we used our inspiration to create images of the Sun or Moon in outer space. We used a variety of skills and tools in order to produce these including the use of varying brush strokes, dabbing of a sponge and flicking of a toothbrush to create different elements of our image.

Escape the box in MI!

We have loved our crew activity this morning where we took part in an escape room challenge! This involved tackling a series of clues to unlock a range of different locks! We absolutely loved it! This has really helped us to build our communication skills and lots of team work was needed! We all really showed our best selves this morning and we are all proud of everyone 🙂

Transition Day – Crew Hamill

12th July 2024Laura Hamill

I had so much fun meeting my new crew on transition day! We had lots of fun taking part in team building games and I challenged them with a few activities that would give me an insight into where they are at with their writing and maths. I’m excited to get started properly next academic year!

Although the sun wasn’t shining, yellow team oozed with warmth! Myself and Miss Burge were so proud of our team! From the youngest members who had not completed a sports day of this length to the oldest members who supported and encouraged them! We really did showcase the meaning of Crew!
