Shin pads

I lent out shin pads to children in our last football tournament that we competed in a few months ago. If you have a pair at home please can you send them back to school as they are needed for our next tournament.

Thank you

Miss Marsh

Oh we do like to be beside the seaside!

What a fantastic day we had at the seaside! The weather was on our side as we enjoyed a dry day in Cleethorpes.

We explored the beach, collecting treasure we found such as sand, shells and seaweed to bring back to the classroom to support our Expedition learning. 

On our walk towards the pier we were lucky enough to catch the Coastguards working on their equipment. They very kindly showed us some of their equipment and explained what used it for. 

After a picnic on the beach we went on the hunt for an ice cream whilst taking in the sights and sounds of the coastline – delicious!

The children represented Carcroft School brilliantly and thoroughly enjoy their day.

Crew FE would like to say a huge thank you to our parents and staff in school for ensuring the day could go ahead.

Picnic Planning in Crew FE

29th April 2022Megan Evans

The children in Crew FE have had a jam packed day – literally!

We began the day by thinking about what we would choose to take in a picnic to the seaside, and why some items would be better suited than others. The children quickly decided that items such as tins of beans wouldn’t be any good in our picnic as we probably wouldn’t have anywhere to cook them! Children had lots of ideas of what they would like to take such as apples, oranges, donuts and sandwiches and we discussed which would be the healthier choices.

After that, we put our spreading skills to the test and made some delicious jam sandwiches! There were some great discussions about how to use the knife safely and the different shapes we could cut the sandwich into. Then came the best bit – eating them!
