A better world day 2022 🌍

What an exciting night we have had at XP High School! We have recorded and gone live with America showing our song Dear World. Everyone was so impressed with our song and loved the meaning behind it!

Thank you Lydia and Sophia for showcasing our expedition to people around the world! You both worked so hard! 👍🏼😊

Watch this space the CD is coming soon for you to purchase!

Shin pads

I lent out shin pads to children in our last football tournament that we competed in a few months ago. If you have a pair at home please can you send them back to school as they are needed for our next tournament.

Thank you

Miss Marsh

Oh we do like to be beside the seaside!

What a fantastic day we had at the seaside! The weather was on our side as we enjoyed a dry day in Cleethorpes.

We explored the beach, collecting treasure we found such as sand, shells and seaweed to bring back to the classroom to support our Expedition learning. 

On our walk towards the pier we were lucky enough to catch the Coastguards working on their equipment. They very kindly showed us some of their equipment and explained what used it for. 

After a picnic on the beach we went on the hunt for an ice cream whilst taking in the sights and sounds of the coastline – delicious!

The children represented Carcroft School brilliantly and thoroughly enjoy their day.

Crew FE would like to say a huge thank you to our parents and staff in school for ensuring the day could go ahead.

Picnic Planning in Crew FE

The children in Crew FE have had a jam packed day – literally!

We began the day by thinking about what we would choose to take in a picnic to the seaside, and why some items would be better suited than others. The children quickly decided that items such as tins of beans wouldn’t be any good in our picnic as we probably wouldn’t have anywhere to cook them! Children had lots of ideas of what they would like to take such as apples, oranges, donuts and sandwiches and we discussed which would be the healthier choices.

After that, we put our spreading skills to the test and made some delicious jam sandwiches! There were some great discussions about how to use the knife safely and the different shapes we could cut the sandwich into. Then came the best bit – eating them!

iPad Scheme – Important Update

A high number of student iPads are being returned to the Edutech workshop with damaged screens. Our insurers are now implementing a £50 excess to any claims for broken screens where a screen protector is not applied to the device. 

Parents will be liable to pay this excess if screen protectors are not applied. 

All iPads were issued with a screen protector when you received them, If for any reason you do not have a screen protector please inform the school admin team.

Screen protectors and devices form part of our crew equipment check process so this is the responsibility of students and parents to ensure devices are appropriately protected. 

EYFS have some exciting news.

 
Next week we will be having an upgrade to our outdoor play area. YIPEE! This does mean that the playground will be closed to parents and children for approximately 12 school days. Therefore we have some changes to dropping off and picking up your children.


From Tuesday morning please can you make your way down the driveway (towards Little Oaks Nursery). Your child will come into school through the door next to the kitchen. There will be staff around on Tuesday to support you if you are unsure where to go. 


We’ve also made some tweaks to pick up times to prevent any congestion. Pick up times from Tuesday 3rd May will be as follows until the work is complete:

Nursery – 2.45pm 

Crew Evans – 2.50pm 

Crew Ferguson – 3.00pm

Thank you for your understanding and we can’t wait to share the final result with you once the work is complete.
