Today, some of our Year 3 and Year 4 children have took part in a cricket tournament. The children showed how well Carcroft School work as a team, and were cheering others on throughout the day. Their crew building and communication skills really shone through today! They got better and better as the day went on and we are sure they will be experts when they have finished doing cricket in PE!
Friday 26th May will be a non uniform day with a £1.00 voluntary contribution.
All contributions will go towards our school fund pot which covers the cost of lots of things such as our HoWLs rewards, including the inflatable, attendance rewards, theatre productions, bouncy castle rewards and other things such as McDonalds, Y6 SATs breakfast and much more.
We thank you in advance for any contributions and will continue to use any funds raised during fundraising to provide fun and memorable experiences for the children of Carcroft.
Crew Marsh celebrated achieving 3.2 and above by bouncing their way through the inflatable. Everyone involved had such a great morning! ⭐️
Crew Robson started to identify the different clouds during our crew session. We were so interested in the changes that we even carried on cloud spotting during our morning and dinner time break! Do you know the different types of clouds? If not, ask a member of our Crew!
The children have worked so hard in writing lessons over the last two weeks. They have now finished their ”The tunnel” books and look forward to sharing them with you at the reading care on Thursday.
We have also been trying really hard with our sentence formation.
To kick start our King Charles learning we looked at memories of the Queen that have happened over her reign. We looked at the Queen’s coronation and the Queen’s platinum jubilee. We really enjoyed watching the different memories and learning/understanding what happened in them and why.
To kick start off our new expedition learning-Earth Shattering Events- Crew Pashley, Crew Thompson and Crew FE participated in various activities throughout hook week. We sketched snapshots of life in Pompeii, to create whole crew storyboards demonstrating what it was like when Mount Vesuvius erupted.
All the crews participated in a carousel of activities and experiments to begin our learning on natural disasters. We made coke and mentos volcanoes, experienced what a cold flood would feel like, and experienced what an earthquake would feel like.
Today in Crew Pashley we celebrated Earth Day. This morning in citizenship crew we designed our own recyclable paper bag around sustainability. This afternoon, we concluded our hook week learning by having a family learning event with various activities centred around Earth Day, including a layers of the Earth collage and a cotton bud painting of the Earth.
We had an exciting job to do today in Crew Welburn – we needed to set our butterflies free! Miss Kelly kindly offered to help us to guide them out of their house and we watched carefully as they flew away to find their new homes!
