Thank you to the new Crew Walton for a fantastic couple of days! We have explored the Zones of Regulation-creating super videos, developed our own Maths Story book, hosted 2 successful Reading sessions with parents and carers, had a dance class and had a generally lovely time getting to know one another! Bring on the Autumn Term!
Today, Year 3 were excited to visit Thorne Memorial Park once again. This time, to meet up with our friends from the Victoria Cross Trust who were steam washing the cenotaph in order to restore its original splendour. Unfortunately, the steam cleaner wasn’t quite working during our visit so we didn’t get to see it in action but Keith, who we worked with back in Autumn term, has kindly shared some videos of the washer in all its working glory! (see below)
We’re sure you will agree that the before & after shows an amazing transformation. A huge shout out to the VC Trust and the amazing work that they do!
We are incredibly proud to share that three of our talented pupils represented our Engineering Club at the recent Celebration Event in Snaith — and they absolutely blew everyone away with their creativity, teamwork, and technical skills!
As part of the challenge, the children were tasked with testing their engineering builds for both load-bearing strength and their ability to move in a straight line. But the event didn’t stop there — they were also put to the test in a live interview with two employees from Siemens Rail, where they confidently explained their design choices and the reasoning behind their builds.
What happened next was nothing short of amazing…
The judges were so impressed by our pupils’ work — especially the addition of coding in their designs — that they awarded them the top grade, a level never awarded before!
Not only that, but our team secured both 1st and 2nd place, receiving their prizes from none other than Mark Speed, Manager at Siemens Rail in Goole.
We are delighted to invite you to the Year 3 and Year 4 Presentation of Learning, which will take place on 2nd July at 9am.
The morning will begin with a coffee morning in the hall, followed by a presentation by our Year 3 and 4 children, where they will showcase what they’ve been learning this term. We are incredibly proud of all the hard work they’ve put in and are excited for them to share it with you.
Please enter the hall via the Ash Tree entrance, not the office.
Following the presentation, parents and children are warmly invited to enjoy a walk around our Summer Fayre, where there will be a range of stalls and activities for everyone to enjoy.
We look forward to seeing you there and celebrating the children’s achievements together.
Children will then return to their classrooms at 10:15.
This afternoon was very warm and as we were outside for orienteering session, Year 3 decided to play some team water games to keep cool … a few splashes here and there but we all soon dried off. Well done, everyone!
Year 3 have really enjoyed their art lessons with Mrs Green as part of their G-Block experience this term. Check out some of their beautiful finished pieces below:
It has been so lovely to watch some of our Year 3 children practising their crochet skills on the playground – some of the items they have been making are wonderful, including gloves, bracelets and even a board rubber for their teachers. Great job, everyone – such skill!
