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!

Reading Challenge Golden Ticket Winners
A HUGE shoutout to Luke and Zach who earned themselves a golden ticket in our reading challenge from this term. Each of them has read every single day at home to move up on our challenge board. They even started to overlap some of the other children in crew showing just how much they have read! I am so proud of your enthusiasm with this challenge boys and I praise your efforts in making sure you have read at home every night. I hope you love your prizes!
Y1 tile artwork
To celebrate the end of our Islam learning we created an Islamic artwork tile using dots and lines. We did this through learning about the artist William Morris who designs lots of patterned artwork for wallpapers.
Scotties celebration
In our Scotties heroes session this morning we enjoyed toasting marshmallows!
Painting (and doughnuts!)
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!
Sharing our story – EYFS bin stickers
On Friday, Crew MW went on a little walk around school distributing our final product bin stickers. The stickers will be stuck on the bins throughout school and as the children move through school they will always be able to see their work from this expedition. Whilst we walked round, we also spotted another final product displayed on the wall near the dinner hall – we loved the illustrations of the bees!
Publishing our writing
We are really enjoying publishing our persuasive letters and can’t wait to get these sent to Mrs Atherton.
Guitar celebrations in year 5
We were all so proud of our year 5 children as they showcased their incredible guitar skills to the rest of the school and to parents and carers. Thank you to everyone that joined us 🙂
MI finish their sketching
We are all so proud of our finished art work 🙂 There was some great sketching techniques used.
Sweet Potato and Polenta Bake
We continued with our DT case study by cooking a sweet potato and polenta bake. This dish required us to use a wider range of skills such as slicing, chopping, grating, mixing, reducing liquids and then assembling the dish in a similar way to how you’d make a lasagna.
When the dish was cooked, there were lots of reluctant children who would try it. However, with some encouragement they tried a little. Surprisingly, some of them absolutely loved it to the point they crowded round the dish with a spoon.
During this case study, it’s required children to push themselves outside their comfort zone and for some they have found foods they like that they’d have been unwilling to try before.
