Crew Walton have worked so hard today, planning, writing, editing and producing final drafts of their own stories for National Writing Day. Everyone worked so hard, choosing from a range of picture stimuli from which to base their pieces. What a successful day!

Y5/6 team
Last Thursday, Learning Council was invited to be apart of the D Day service in Thorne Memorial Park. They stood and listened carefully and respectfully and then confidently stood and recited a D Day poem along with children from other primary schools from Thorne and Moorends.
It was an honour to go along and be a part of such a special occasion to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the D Day landings and I was super proud of all the children!
The children in Year 5 planned and delivered a debate linked to our book ‘Pig heart boy’. The children worked incredibly hard to prepare structured and well thought out questions and showed respect when providing their responding arguments…a fantastic effort!
Here are the spellings that we have been learning about this week:
Today, Year 5 enjoyed an assembly from Mick at the Royal British Legion. We learned all about the D-Day landings and why they are so important to our history, as well as finding out about the different ways in which the 80th Anniversary of D-Day will be celebrated tomorrow. Mick is Thorne’s Town Crier and he gave us a sneak preview of the important announcement that he will be making tomorrow morning at 8am to kick-start the celebrations (which will take place in Memorial Park throughout the day).
Yesterday, we completed a basic first aid workshop. I was so impressed with the knowledge that the children already had and how they were able to confidently build on their knowledge. It was great to see all the children actively taking part with the practical demonstrations and discussion.
Well done everyone!
