We’ve had a couple of requests from parents asking if we could help with childcare on a Friday. We have can offer support up to 2pm for those who urgently need it due to work commitments.
If you do you need Urgent Childcare on Friday please complete this form by Wednesday 17th March: Childcare Provision
Starting from Tuesday 16th March Crew Marsh’s doors will be open at 8.30 and will be closed at 8.45. Please ensure your children are brought between this time.
See what everyone’s been up to this week as the XP Primary School’s return from Lockdown 3.

Have a lovely weekend everyone 😊
From Monday 15th March we will be changing the opening time for Crew Nicholson, Crew Thiede and Crew Godley to 8.25
Just a reminder that our finish times are slightly different on a Friday and are as follows:
Nicholson: 12.45
Godley: 1.00
Year 1: 12.45-1.15
Year 2: 12.45-1.15
Year 3: 12.45- 1.15
Year 4: 12.45-1.15
Year 5: 12.45-1.15
Year 6: 12.45-1.15
However, from next Friday, the 19th March, we will be changing these times from Y1-Y6 to 12.45-1.00pm (15 minutes less) so that Teachers can start their planning time at 1.00pm instead of 1.15.

We have two upcoming fundraisers which we would love our pupils to participate in.
The first fundraiser, Red Nose Day, is an opportunity for our community to come together to support charities a little further afield, and further educate our pupils around ‘being kind’ and supporting those who may be less fortunate than ourselves outside of the UK.
Friday 19th March
We’d love to see all of our children wearing something Red. We’re asking for a voluntary contribution of £1 per child
The second fundraiser is intended to raise funds for our own pupils here at CPS, further contributing to our school fund pot, so that we can continue to provide some lovely treats and experiences for our pupils.Â
Friday 26th MarchÂ
Come in non uniform! We’re asking for a voluntary contribution of £1 per child
However, we do understand that these two events do unfortunately fall within a week of one another, therefore, if you feel you can only contribute to one, we completely understand and appreciate anything you feel you can contribute at this time.Â
Thank you for your continued support.
Crew CPS
If your child is absent from school for any reason, please can we remind you to ring the school office on 01302 722353 – option 1 and leave a message stating your child’s name, Crew and reason for absence.
This will avoid the Admin staff having to make contact with you and avoid any unneccessary home visits due to your child not attending.
Thank you for your cooperation and support.
You may well remember that before Christmas we did a huge fundraising event, whereby we asked each crew member to walk a mile a day, in order to achieve 2520 ish miles in total as a school crew- the distance between CPS and the North Pole….
…. You may remember that the children did amazing and smashed their target. As a result, family and friends were able to handover their sponsorship money, which is currently sitting in our school bank account.
However, we never informed you of the total, as we wanted to decide on what we were going to spend it on…. but then Lockdown 3 hit!
So…. here it is, drum roll please…..
The grand total raised by the community of Carcroft was…..
£2628
We were absolutely blown away…. thank you so much for supporting the pupils of CPS.
So, what are we going to spend it on?
The pupils of CPS of course! After the last 12 months, I am really hoping that we can take every CPS pupil to the seaside, for chips on the sea front, ice-cream, penny slots and sandcastles! We might require parents to contribute a little something towards the coach travel, as the money will largely cover the treats for the children. But, I really do believe that after this year, our children deserve the opportunity to make some memories with their friends outside of the school grounds.
As restrictions are due to be lifted from 21st June 21, I am hoping that these trips can take place in the last few weeks of the year.
However, please can we ask that you start to have a think about a Plan B in case it’s not looking likely it can go ahead.
In the meantime, let’s hope and pray that the roadmap out of lockdown runs smoothly and we can have some fun at the beach later in the year.
Thank you again for your support,

Welcome back to all of our home learners- I hope you have had a lovely day back with your crew! It was lovely to see your faces out on the playground this morning. Our Y6’s seem to have grown so much since December…. stop growing up so quickly!
All of our pupils have made us so proud during Lockdown 3 and to show our appreciation, we have sent every child home with a chocolate bar today. I am hoping that they have given our wonderful parents a square or too to thank you too…..
See you all tomorrow,
Miss Laing
