Class 10 – A Great First Week Back – Who’s ready for another one??!
It was a brilliant first week back in Class 10 last week and it was an absolute pleasure getting to know everyone better! On top of all the fun and exciting special activities we took part in outside of the classroom, the children were also super busy inside the classroom … revisiting what crew means to us, sharing ideas and creating the norms that will help us to work hard, be kind and get smart all year long! We used stories to help us think about what being a good crew member means to us, Bogtrotter for example … where we designed our own bogtrotters and thought about what new adventures they might go on in Year 3 … just like us! AND … we even managed to squeeze in a little visit to our brand new school library which is simply beautiful and we can’t wait to use again. I wonder what our new week will bring …?!
Class 10 – FWB Water Extravaganza!
WOW! what a wet n wild way to end our first week back in Year 3 … Class 10 had so much fun at our water extravaganza, and they were a credit to themselves in how they behaved and the great sportsmanship displayed – well done everyone!!

Class 5: First Week Back!
Wow what a week we have had in Class 5. It has been so lovely getting to know the children even better they are awesome! I have already seen how brilliant the children are at displaying courage and overcoming any worries or concerns they have. They are very resilient and we have had so much fun completing our first week back activities. Two of our highlights were visiting the XP Outdoors camp where we toasted marshmallows to make smores and sang funny camp songs with Mr Kershaw. It was so lovely seeing the children smiling and laughing along. We also loved our Water Extravaganza especially the water guns, wet sponge obstacle course and Mrs Raynors soggy disco!
For our learning this week we have been answering the guiding question ‘How does what I do impact others?’. We have learned about reducing, reusing and recycling materials to help conquer climate change. We have been drawing pictures to decorate recycling boxes for all the classes in school. We had a lovely lady called Lynne come in to visit us to teach us all about what happens with our waste in Doncaster. The children have been really engaged and compassionate.
I am very excited for our Hook Week next week where we will learn what our Autumn Term Expedition will be and do lots of crafts to decorate our classroom!
Here are some photos of our week! (Water Extravaganza will be shared in a whole school post!)

XP Outdoors Camp:
Class 4’s fabulous first week!
We’ve had another wonderful couple of days with our second group of children, who have also enjoyed a fantastic start to Reception. They made the most of the sunshine outdoors and loved exploring our indoor environment too. There’s been lots of creativity with drawing, imaginative play in small world, relaxing in our new chill space, and plenty of experimenting with the pipes to see how we can move the water just where we want it!
We hope you all have a lovely weekend. We can’t wait to see everyone together on Monday for another exciting week ahead, including our first Parents Stay and Play with stories and s’mores, our very first XP Outdoors session with Mr Kershaw, and of course, our very own Reception Water Day!
Class 6’s soggy end to a truly wonderful week!
Our first week in Y1 came to a damp but joyous close today as we took part in Green Top’s Water Extravaganza. The squeals of delight and gleeful laughter from both children and staff was awesome to witness. We also put the finishing touches to the recycling boxes that we made as part of our ‘How does what I do impact others?’ guiding question (watch this space for photographs of our product). We have learned so much this week and can’t wait to put our new-found knowledge into action throughout the year.
Also, a huge congratulations to Axl on being voted Crew Rodgers’ councillor and to Oliver and Mila-Rose for being awarded our final postcards of the week.
I’m SO looking forward to spending the next year with you all!
Crew Knowles – Last Day of FWB!
What a lovely day we’ve had to finish what has been a fantastic first week back!! We enjoyed spending time in the new library and then this afternoon we absolutely loved the water extravaganza!
Year 6 Water Extravaganza
What a way to finish off an amazing start to Year 6! After a brilliant camp out last night where the children showed excellent behaviours, it was wonderful to see them still go home smiling (yet rather tired!) following fun with the water games. Have a relaxing weekend guys – you deserve it! This week you have proved that you are going to be a fabulous year 6 crew this year!

Class 7 – FWB Day 4!
What a lovely start to the day we had by singing our songs down Finkle Street and then handing out the key rings that we made. We even handed out our key rings to make people smile!
We then visited a local care home and sang songs, before handing out our cards to the residents!
Finally, we ended the day by having our water fun activities!
