Hi everyone,
What a fantastic day we have had in Crew Gerrard. We have all worked really hard, tried our very best to listen carefully so that we can get smart and most importantly, we have been really kind to each other. Our HoWL heroes for today were:
Work hard: Brayden🦸♂️
Get smart: Hassan 🦸♂️
Being kind: Lucas 🦸♂️
Our HoWL average today was 3.4. Well done guys, let’s make sure that we keep it up tomorrow!
Today, we could’ve given anyone HOWL hero… but the lucky 3 were:
Work hard: Sophia 👩
Get smart: Crystal 👩
Be kind: Kelby 👩
🤩 We are super proud to say that our HOWL average today is 3.0! We’ve worked super hard to achieve this and we’re really now thinking about what each HOWL really means.
Well done Crew Kent 👍
In Crew Marsh today we had a fab writing lesson! I thoroughly enjoyed reading their sentences. Not only was their sentence quality good but the children did really well at chotting down their ideas. ✏
Today’s HoWL average is: 3.7! 🙌
Our Weekly HoWL target is: 3.2
How can we develop this tomorrow?
Tomorrow, Crew Marsh need to make sure they are not getting out of their seats in learning time and if they need to, to put their hand up.
Today’s HoWL Hero:
Our Get Smart hero today is Aaliyah!
Aaliyah has blown me away with how hard she has worked all day! She really has been a superstar and I am so impressed with her! Keep it up Aaliyah!😊
Manic Monday! 😊
Today has been very busy in Crew Elmer but we have all had lots of fun and most importantly learnt lots enabling us to ‘get smart’!
Star moment of the day: ⭐
Today there have been many moments that I have praised in Crew Elmer… The first one being our ‘experience’ lesson in ‘The Write Stuff’ today. The children got to experience what it was like for a miner working in the coal mines all day! The children had to crawl under tables in the dark, carrying ‘coal’. The children also had a go at doing one of the jobs that the children would of done in the mines including a ‘putter’, a ‘getter’ and a ‘stopper’. The children were great at working in role, even if they did find it tough! They all very much enjoyed their reward which was a chocolate coin! Great experiencing Crew Elmer!
The second moment that blew me away today was our online ‘Parliament workshop’ with some lovely people who were actually IN parliament today! WOW! 🤩 They chatted to us about the different houses, coloured seats, prime minsters, petitions, laws etc. It was very interesting and the children learnt lots! They also aced the quiz at the end! 🙌 Well done Crew Elmer! 👏 You represented our school well! 😊
Today’s HoWL average is: 3.4
WOW! 😁 This is a great score for a Monday and much better than last week’s score so well done! 👏 I wonder if we can keep this up all week and get a spin on the wheel?!….🤞
This week’s HoWL target is: 3.0
How can we develop this tomorrow?
Tomorrow Crew Elmer need to be as FAB as they were today, ALL day! More days like this please Crew Elmer! 🙌
Today’s HoWL Hero:
Well… honestly… Miss Hart has been back for one day and she was asked to have the crew for the afternoon… when it came to chose our HoWL hero she had been away for so long and forgot to only choose one and chose 3! 🤣 Honestly Miss Hart! 14 days off and I leave you for one afternoon! 🤣 Therefore the three HoWL heroes are…
Lacey-Niia for ‘working hard‘ in expedition recording all of your fabulous answers from the meet and greet with our ex-miner last week. You had remembered lots and used your best handwriting to record your sentences. Well done! 👏
Ray for ‘getting super smart’. Ray achieved all 4’s in his HoWLs today and really blew the Crew and Miss Hart away with his knowledge in Maths and Expedition today! Excellent stuff Ray! 🙌
Leo for ‘being kind’. Leo was praised by his crew for his great help throughout our different lessons today! I know this will really cheer Leo up crew as he was feeling a little blue this morning so thank you for that! 😊 And of course well done Leo! Same again tomorrow please!
Monday ✅ We have had a very busy day in Crew Nicholson today! The children come back to school after the weekend full of energy but by the end of the day we had some sleepy little heads 😴
This morning we started our day with P.E with Kixx. We had so much fun practising our gross motor skills whilst practising our colours at the same time! We are also getting fantastic at walking down to P.E in our smart straight line, I was super impressed how quickly we got to the hall today. Practice makes almost perfect 🌟
At story time we listened to the story ‘The smartest giant in town’. This linked perfect to the HoWL ‘Being Kind’ and the children were able to identify how the giant was kind and we discussed ways we could be kind to each other 🥰
HOWL Hero
Working Hard – Freya
Freya worked very hard in P.E doing excellent listening and working hard to practise her colours. Well done Freya 🌟
A good start to the week in crew today 👍🏻
Highlight of the day
Today in crew we were able to double the amount of writing that we completed! This is amazing Crew Thiede, we are well on our way to getting smart!
HOWLs

A great start to the week, we are aiming for 3.4 at the end of the week!
Today our HOWL heroes were…
🌟 work hard – Lilia

Another busy day down the pit for us today as the children were able to experience a little more of what it could have been like working down a mine and having to navigate small spaces while working as a crew.
Today’s HoWL average is: 2.7
Our Weekly HoWL target is: 2.8
I wonder if…
I wonder if we can listen carefully to instructions, especially with our writing, to help us to get smart.
Today’s HoWL Heroes:
Our Be Kind hero today is Lucas!
Lucas has had a great attitude to his learning today and has been positive about everything, even the challenges! He’s even spread this positivity to the rest of the crew and kept us all smiling today.
We have had a marvellous Monday and great first day back in Crew Wilson🤩
Highlight of the day:
Today Mr Wilson has had a break from teaching as the Crew have led in our Computing session this afternoon, assisting each other to de-bug an algorithm using prior knowledge and their new skills gained from the last 6 weeks. They have worked fantastically together as collaborators, helping each other fix issues and have had some in-depth discussions about the problems they encountered and how to overcome them, it was great to sit back and watch how they work together, well done Crew!
Howl Heroes:
Work Hard: Debbie-Mae has shown she is consistently aiming for green standard in every lesson today, well done!
Get Smart: Bobby-J has listened carefully to instructions and has provided some brilliant answers to questions in discussion times, great work!
Be Kind: Keira-Leigh has been kind to her Crew today by helping others sound out words when they got stuck with reading directions in computing, and has been a cheerleader for everyone’s achievements today, well done!
Howl Average:
3.3
This has dropped by 0.1% but the Crew have some whole class and personal targets for tomorrow so they can demonstrate their Howl’s to the teachers and to get those fab fours.
