Carcroft School

We’ve had lots of fun in the sunshine this week in Crew Welburn! We’ve made slides for dinosaurs, transported water using pipes and funnels, and even splashed our feet in our make shift paddling pools to cool off! The children are really developing their independence, curiosity and team work this week, and are working well together to explore how different things work – it is lovely to stand back and watch them forming strong friendships with each other!

The children have also been enjoying indoor provision, and are still excited by our story, Little Red Riding Hood. We spotted a wolf in school last night, so Leon decided to dress up as the Woodcutter to scare him away, and some of the boy and girls even made up a song to scare him off! We hope he doesn’t come back!

Sharing our expedition in reception

24th May 2023A Welburn

We loved having the opportunity to welcome our parents into the classroom this afternoon, and to share our learning journey so far with them! Our children spoke about their expedition, ‘We’re on the move!’ to their parents and shared everything they have learnt so far. The children were really proud of their learning and loved having the opportunity to show this off to their parents 🚗

Sharing our Expeditionary learning in LKS2 🌋⛰🌧🌍📖

24th May 2023Sophie Elmer

This afternoon we welcomed lots of our grown ups into school to show them our current extraordinary expedition work, ‘Earth Shattering Events’, ‘What happens when nature strikes?’. We enjoyed sharing the work that we completed during Hook Week (making a volcano, earthquake simulation, walking through water and Earth Day celebrations!), as well as the Science (rocks and soils) and Geography (mountains) coverage from Case Study One.

We also got the opportunity to share our fabulous writing including our Lava recount and our broadcasting scripts.

Thank you to all of the grown ups (and newborn babies!) who came to share their child/rens learning this afternoon. It was lovely to see how proud the children were of the beautiful work that they have been producing.

We look forward to sharing the rest of our learning with you all in July at our COL Event on Wednesday 12th July! We hope to see you then! 😁

Is the King’s crown at Tower Bridge?👑🌉

24th May 2023Lauren Marsh

The King wanted to give up because it had taken so long to look for his crown he strolled to tower bridge slowly. Luckily the King found his gold diamond crown! It was at the top of tower bridge all along!

We loved being a bus driver, taxi driver or a boat driver. Some of us had been shopping and others were travelling to their next destination in London.

Fab work Y1, I cannot wait to read your independent writing tomorrow!
