Crew Spetch – Y5 Transition

12th July 2024Sophie Myers

We’ve had the best two days getting to know each other and our new crew. We had lots of fun completing some crew activities, learning about the Zones of Regulation and creating characters that linked to each zone, designing and painting kindness zones for our new garden and learning about the British Values and how these links to our Crew and school life. We also enjoyed some reading to adults and creating some artwork ready for our new classroom.

What a fantastic first impression you have all made. I already can’t wait for the first week back!!

Year 5 Celebrate our learning!!

9th July 2024Sarah Walton

Thank you to all who attended our Celebration of Learning today! It was wonderful to see children sharing their expert knowledge with their adults. We looked at some Egyptian artefacts, made hieroglyphic bookmarks, produced some beautiful sketches, experimented with dress-up and we even had a sneak preview of our Tik Tok videos…all washed down with a healthy mocktail!

Crew Spetch – WOW What a day!!

26th June 2024Sophie Myers

What a fabulous and busy day we had yesterday – I’m amazed we fit it all into one school day!

To begin with, we worked with Geoff from XP to film our final product. Everyone came to life on the camera, I can’t wait to see how fab the videos look!

Then, as part of our Fitness video, we had a Zumba class with Mrs Rayner, which everyone got really stuck into and enjoyed. After that, the children got changed into their Egyptian costumes and we finished our video with us dancing like Egyptians!

We even managed to link our science learning of the heart and dissect some pigs hearts! I was absolutely blown away by everyones courage handling the hearts but also hearing the use of correct terminology that we had learnt. The children were even able to identify the different components of the heart and discuss what the role of the part is. AMAZING!

What a fantastic day filled with lots of amazing learning opportunities!

Super proud!

Wow! I was absolutely blown away by everyones enthusiasm yesterday for National Writing Day. We all enjoyed looking at the pictures and discussing what they might mean and then planning some beautiful pieces of writing. We even created front covers, character profiles and comic strips for our stories. Well done everyone!
