Next week, we will be taking part in a week full of activities linking to Kindness. This is part of the NSPCC fundraising and awareness week.
We will be taking part in lots of fun activities during Crew each day and there will be lots of opportunities for children to complete Kindness Challenges at home too.
Next Friday, to raise money for the NSPCC, we will be holding a Non-Uniform Day for donations of £1.
As part of National Poetry Day, we had a fantastic afternoon when the author and illustrator Phil Sheppard visited us! We heard some really funny stories that he’d written as well as some funny poems and rhymes! There was definitely lots of laughs! We even practised some illustration skills as he taught us how to draw a shark!

Visit to Thorne Library
On Monday, as part of reading week, the children were given the chance to visit Thorne library. We had a huge selection of books that the children were able to take a look through. It was good opportunity for the children to find something they were interested in and hopefully engage them more with their reading.
In expedition, we have been looking at what life would be like as a Roman soldier. We looked at the different equipment that a soldier would carry and wear and tried to label the soldier using the Latin names for the items. We then looked at different soldiers within the Roman army and how a Roman legion was structured.
This week in our half an hour slot we’ve made some peg animals! Inspired by my friend ‘peggy’ the giraffe 🦒 😄
In maths this week, the children have been learning about Roman numerals. We used lollipop sticks to create the Roman numerals and write out our date of birth.
Take a look at what Layla has been creating at home. She has been making her very own Roman army out of conkers!
Come and join us between 8:30 and 9:30 on Friday 29th September to raise money for Macmillan.

We look forward to seeing you.
