During Crew time, we celebrated those pupils with HoWLs that are ‘Great’ meaning their HoWL average is 3.5+. We showed our appreciation for how hard they work with a little cake!
Great HoWLs 🤩

Crew Gerrard Litter Picking! ♻️✅
It is fair to say that Crew Gerrard were absolutely buzzing with the litter picking this afternoon and thoroughly loved it. It was great seeing so much enjoyment, Crew work and effort in making sure our playground is treated well. They were truly kind and want to make sure that it looks beautiful! What a fantastic effort guys! 😆
Fireworks in Nursery!
The children this morning used their fine motor skills to create fire works in the tough tray. We spoke about all the different sounds the children are going to hear on Bonfire night. The children loved making lots of firework noises and we pretended we were the different fireworks by shouting loud bangs for rockets and being crackling little Roman candles. They are all very excited for Saturday!
LKS2 PE! ⚽️
LKS2 have started their new PE unit: Dodgeball. We learnt the different rules and how we need to work together as a team. There was some excellent teamwork, along with healthy competition, showing a real sense of crew. Well done!
LKS2 also had a mini-football tournament to finish off their unit of football. The ball control, dribbling and skills were fantastic. Even better, there was so much communication to be heard and smiles as they enjoyed playing their game of football.
LKS2 Historians! 🕵️♂️🕵️
LKS2 have been learning about the roles of men and women during World War 2. This week, we have researched the different roles men had. The children learnt that men did many jobs; such as: working in industry, down the mines, for the police force, as a fire officer, as an ARP Warden and many many more. The children presented their information by making posters. They were so eager to show off all their new learning.
Place value masters! 🔢
In one of the LKS2 maths groups, we have been working really hard on Place Value, understanding how many tens and ones there are in a number. This young man has worked so hard and is feeling very proud of himself. We are all very proud of you!
Non Uniform Day
I know we have only just finished with Halloween, and some people may not be ready for this just yet…. but Christmas preparations have now begun here at Carcroft School! Christmas will soon be upon us and with that in mind we need to begin our Christmas Fayre prep ASAP. So, this Friday 4th November, children are invited into school in non-uniform but in return, we are asking for donations for our tombola stall and Carcroft famous bottle stall ie: toiletries, shampoo, bubble bath, bottles of water, bottles of juice etc
We can’t wait to get our Christmas Fayre back up and running as we know how much our children and families love it. Thank you in advance for anything you can donate, we really do appreciate your support.
