Today Crew Haddock enjoyed craving pumpkins ready for halloween.
Pumpkin carving
Crucial Crew!
Year 6 had a fantastic time on our trip to Crucial Crew! We learnt so much throughout the day, including important lessons about road safety, bus safety, knife crime, and antisocial behaviour. Each activity helped us understand how to make sensible choices and stay safe in different situations.
It was a really fun and interesting day, and we’ll definitely remember and use what we’ve learnt as we move forward.
Crew Colclough
Yesterday in Crew Colclough, we began our independent writing. We have created our own historical narratives based on the book ‘Escape from Pompeii’. Today we will move onto editing and publishing our own stories.
Mixing colours in Crew Ramsay!
We have loved our learning about primary and secondary colours this week! We used powder paints to make primary colours and then mixed these together to make secondary colours. The children absolutely loved listening to calm music as we got busy. What a lovely Wednesday!
Roman sundial
Today in expedition the children got to make their own roman sundial and learn about why they did not have a clock.
Crew McLoughlin’s Plant-Tastic Lesson!
Today, Crew McLoughlin had a fantastic expedition science lesson learning about the different parts of plants and their roles. The class explored real plants kindly shared from Miss Newman’s mum’s garden, which made the lesson extra special!
Students carefully examined roots, stems, leaves, and flowers, discussing how each part helps the plant grow and stay healthy. They loved getting hands-on with the plants and spotting the unique features of each one.
