In Crew Jackson, we are loving our new shout out window. I am so proud of the compassion and respect the children are showing towards their crew mates. It is lovely to see that this week they have recognised both our HoWLs and character traits within each other. Reading them has definitely made me smile this morning! x
This morning in crew, we continued to explore ‘Protected Characteristics’. Whilst completing a read around the room, the children gathered information on each characteristics and went on to confidently feedback to the crew their findings, linking it with their expedition learning on equality and discrimination.

Y6 visited the Lifewise Centre today to participate in the Crucial Crew programme. The Lifewise Centre provides the children with essential knowledge and skills to be able to keep safe in the local community.
Some of the different scenarios included road safety, transport safety, fire safety, water safety and a mock trial in a Magistrates’ Court! All of the scenarios are taught by volunteering experts from South Yorkshire Police, South Yorkshire Fire and Rescue and the South Yorkshire Safer Roads Partnership.
The children participated in all of the scenarios showing real maturity and thoughtfulness. Check out the slide show below.
Mr Mumby took to the decks and by children’s request, the highly acclaimed tune – ‘Sigma Boy’ – had the school hall jumping like never before!
