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.
This week was all about getting to know our new Crew members and staff.
Learning new routines together and exploring our new setting.
Revisiting shapes in maths and having fun outside.
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 🙂
Miss Marsh has treated LKS2 to their own boombox which allows us to listen to music during our break times! We certainly made the most of the sunshine this morning when we danced and sang to some of our favourite songs! Shout out to Sharni-Mae for her beautiful karaoke skills!
Painting has been a firm favourite in Crew MW this week!
After all that painting we definitely deserved a treat… doughnuts! Thank you for bringing the doughnuts in Oliver, we hope you enjoyed your birthday!
We have been enjoying the sunshine (when it appears!) in EYFS recently.
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!
Today we discussed the importance of good hygiene which linked to the talk we had last week with the school nurse. We watched a video clip then took part in a class quiz.
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!
We extended our fire building skills in Scotty’s this week by building a safety wall to protect our fires from the wind. We then had another go at keeping our fires burning. One group were extremely successful in building theirs and even created some smoke! Well done to Zach who earned our Scotty’s Hero for his excellent recall of what a fire needs to survive!
