Thankyou so much to Ros Jones for coming into school today to talk about Doncaster and the improvements the council are trying to make. The children had some great questions and were hoping that Ros can help us to get our sign up in Thorne x x
Key stage 1 would love to invite parents and carers to come on a local walk with their children to look at various landmarks and use maps to support their learning they have been doing in geography this term. If the weather is kind to us we may even have a chance to draw some of these beautiful places and buildings as we go along our journey.
Year 1 family learning will take place on Tuesday 21st May
Year 2 family learning will take place on Wednesday 22nd May
We will be leaving school at 9 o clock but you are welcome to come into school and join the children for their morning activity from 8.30 or come back to the office for 9 o clock.
We hope to see you there, thanks, from the key stage 1 team x x x
Big well done to our Crew Champions, we had so much to say about our superstars this week! We had some super steward shoutouts too, thank you for always helping to keep our school clean, tidy and organised.
This week in year 2 we have had a few more children getting those sparkly pencils for beautiful craftsmanship and quality in their work, presentation and handwriting.
Shoutout for those children engaging beautifully with Numbots and TTRockstars, we can really see the hard work paying off. KS1 also had some reading certificates to celebrate too, with lots of children working their way quickly through reading lots of different things. Don’t forget, it doesn’t have to be a school book to be recorded in our reading diaries!!
Finally, a big well done to Crew Shaw who won our attendance competition this week with a whopping 99%! It is so great to see the children so excited for this award, I wonder if we can get 100% next week….
Arts and crafts club managed to find some sun yesterday! The children sat out in the sun for the chance to draw something that they could see, before we headed back in to colour them in. They focused on all the little details around us and worked so hard to create beautiful pieces of art work! Hopefully the sun will return next week so we can get back outside.
Another fantastic week this week to celebrate!! KS1 have had a smashing time on Numbots recently and have taught Miss Rodgers some new types of metal as they’ve flown through the steps. Lots of lovely shoutouts for our stewardship this week too, particularly for working hard to take care of our jumpers and cardigans as the weather has got a bit warmer (fingers crossed it stays that way).
Big well done to our HOWL point winners this week, lots of hard work and quality craftsmanship from our children, we love it when you know you can be proud of your work! Crew Stone won the most attendance this week, it’s great to see how proud the children were to win Paddington the attendance bear. Well done guys!!!
Finally, big well done to our Crew Champions this week in KS1 who have been following all of our HOWLs, improving in their learning, showing respect and quality craftsmanship!
Some huge shoutouts this week, starting with our Crew Champions who have shone this week, big well done for your hard work and we hope to see lots more of this. Who will be stood up there next week?!
There were SO many reading certificates this week too. Particular shoutout to Arnie for getting the highest reading certificate yet and also Ezra for getting his sparkly pencil for beautiful handwriting! Loads of other wonderful people to celebrate, for their hard work on TTRockstars and Numbers, for their stewardship this week and for our HOWL point winners too! Keep it up KS1, we love to celebrate your fantastic achievements.
We have spent a very exciting morning visiting the Pentecostal Church where we were treated to a live reading from a real life Cbeebies television star of one of her books. We sang songs and played games and generally had a wonderful time. The children behaved beautifully both on the walk to and from the Church and while listening to the story and we are all very, very proud of you.
A huge thanks to Pastor Kevin for inviting us.

Today we began our learning for our new expedition. Please find below links to the overview of what we will be learning in the summer term and extended study menu’s for Y1 and Y2. There is no obligation to complete all of the homework, but past experience has shown that studying themes at home linked to our expedition has helped the children to consolidate the learning they have done in class. Plus they LOVE sharing their new knowledge with you. Don’t forget to send the work into school or email photographs so we can celebrate their achievements.
