Welcome back everyone – it has been a wonderful first day! In Crew Knowles, we really enjoyed our team building activities this morning which consisted of building towers with our shoes and holding paper using our bodies! Although it may sound strange, it was lots of fun and we picked out lots of strengths and areas we can work on to further strengthen our crew!
Year 6 were working on their team building skills today where we discussed the importance of strengthening our crew ethos. I am looking forward to next year where we continue to develop and strengthen each of the Year 6 crews!
The new Crew Knowles have continued to have lots of fun today! We have continued to looked at diversity and how we are all unique in our own way! We furthered our learning by looking at the history behind the Berlin Wall and then recreated art work to represent love and freedom.
I had lots of fun with my new crew today! They worked really hard thinking about our HoWLs and how we can work hard, get smart and be kind next year! We also enjoyed the story ‘Mixed’ and discussed diversity and the importance of celebrating our differences.
It may not have come home but Y6 were supporting England fully last week and are so proud of the England squad for getting to the final!
The winning tickets for the Year 6 raffle have been drawn. There are 14 prizes in total so make sure that you check your ticket as there is a great chance of winning. Thank you to all local and small businesses who have donated a wonderful prize, as well as all of those who bought raffle tickets. Whilst not everyone will be able to win a prize, your kindness and generosity has gone a long way towards providing leavers hoodies and a few nice treats for our Year 6’s in the final week. Thank you!

This afternoon, Y5&6 were lucky to receive a visit from Watson Boas who plays rugby league for Doncaster and Papu New Guinea. As part of the build up to the World cup Watson shared his experiences of growing up playing rugby and how he came to be a professional rugby player. Thank you Watson and I am sure we will be cheering you on in October at the World cup!
