Thackray Museum of Medicine

29th June 2022Olivia Fox

As part of our expedition, ‘How can a healthy lifestyle impact your body and mind?’ Y5 and Y6 visited the museum to learn about the history of medicine from the 1800’s to the modern day. As we walked round, we had a range of questions to answer in our pairs for each of the different medicine rooms that we entered. We had lots of reading to do in order to really understand how medicine has dramatically changed over the years. This meant our Work Hard and Get Smart HOWLS had to be secure so that we could be successful in our comprehension work!

Swimming kit – Year 5

28th June 2022Ruth Shields

On Friday (1st July), the children will need to bring shorts and t-shirt that they can get wet in the pool, in addition to their costumes. This lesson is to focus on safety and how to swim when potentially wearing clothing other than their swimming costumes.

Please remember to also have dry clothes to change into after swimming.

Thank you – Year 5 Crew

Exploring Place Value to 100!

28th June 2022A Welburn

Today in Crew Welburn, we have been exploring place value to 100. We have looked at representing numbers to 100 using base ten, and partitioning numbers using our arrow cards to create addition facts! We are getting really confident now and can’t wait to apply our learning to our fluency and problem solving tasks!

John Bull Confectioners and Beach Trip! (28.6.22) 🍭🍬🏖

28th June 2022Simon Gerrard

What a fantastic (and tiring) day we have had at Bridlington. Firstly, we visited the interesting John Bull Confectioners sweet factory. We saw how hard sweets are made and even had the chance to create our own rock. This took a lot of perseverance and effort to be able to role and mould the rock. Throughout the tour, we were lucky enough to eat a variety of sweets, chocolate and biscuits made within the factory. We even wanted to eat our rock that we had made.

After lunch, we then went to the beach. We loved our time playing with our friends on the glorious sand, under the beautiful sun. Although it was windy, it did not stop us having fun. After burning off a load of energy, we were treated to a delicious ice lolly, which helped us cool down. We would not have been able to have this, had we not raised an amazing amount of money from our cake sale a couple of months ago.

Brilliant Biscuit Bakers! ⭐️

28th June 2022Rebecca Chapman

Today is Crew Nursery we have been super busy baking our special seashell biscuits. The children worked hard to weigh the ingredients, mix it into a dough and cut out the shapes, then when the biscuits were cool we piped in the buttercream and added the magic marshmellow pearl!

We hope you have as much fun eating them as we did making them! 🤩
