Crew Haddock loved making their remembrance work to show their respect for what people did to fight for our country. Then today they also showed their respect in doing a 2 minute silence for those who died at war.
Remembrance Day
Crew Godley Marks Remembrance
Today, Crew Godley took time to reflect and remember those who have served and sacrificed in times of conflict. Through thoughtful discussions, art, and a special remembrance activity, the children explored the importance of respect, gratitude, and community. Our crew showed great empathy and understanding as they considered the significance of Remembrance Day, ensuring that the bravery and dedication of others are honoured and never forgotten.
Anti-Bullying Week – Make a Noise About Bullying!
Today marked the start of Anti-Bullying Week, exploring how we can all play a part in making school a kind, safe and respectful place for everyone.
Across the school, pupils have been learning what bullying means, how it can make people feel, and most importantly, how we can stand up for others and celebrate our differences.
In our crew we have designed anti-bullying posters to spread positive messages about friendship, kindness, and speaking up when something isn’t right. Together, we’re proud to make a noise about bullying and show that our school is a place where everyone belongs.
Following the leader.
This week crew Frost have been practicing their listening and attention skills in follow the leader style games! They have been amazing at starting, stopping, up high, and down low. Furthermore, we have expanded our vocabulary by learning new words such as wavy and arch. They have built astonishing problem solving skills when working together in the game seen below to stop the ball from rolling off. We cannot wait to stretch and challenge this lesson next time. Well done crew Frost!

Raft building
in Crew today they got to build their own raft and checked to see if it would float.
Tracing map
We have been working very hard in crew Frost this week! The students have been learning how to complete a new welcome task. Using clear A4 wallets we have placed a document with various dashes and dots, creating shapes and patterns named after a tracing mat. The tracing mat is a foundational skill the children will master to begin forming marks for their names! It is also a great tool for helping our crew practice our listening and attention skills.
Spellings
In crew Haddock our spellings are abit different but today we want to celebrate that we got all our spellings right for the ‘ur’ sound. Ms Haddock is so proud of us.
