Year 5/6 have had an awesome day today! They started the day selecting their house team from the sorting hat before attending Hogwarts for the day. They attended a potions class, a transfiguration lesson, played Quidditch, made magic and battled their fears in a defence against the dark arts class! I can’t wait to see the wonderful videos Mr Taylor and Miss Knowles are putting together……watch this space!
What a fun afternoon we had in Crew Jackson! It was awesome to see the collaboration and problem solving the children did this afternoon. We definitely had a crew full of Stickability Stan as they persevered despite broken spaghetti and tape everywhere! We ended up with most teams having a structure that stood with a marshmallow on top despite only one completely free-standing. Well done to Summer,Evan, Sophie and Harriet you were well deserved winners!
This morning in crew we had the challenge of fitting everyone on to the blanket. Easy to start but then we kept making the blanket smaller! The children worked briliantly together to solve the problem to ensure everyone could fit on. They made fantastic reflections as the challenge progressed. It was fab to see them having fun together!😀
In Crew Jackson this afternoon the children have enjoyed sharing books and reading for pleasure. They loved looking at our new expedition train books and reading our class text Harry Potter, our transition stories and our selection of new reading for pleasure books.
I can’t wait to get started on Accelerated Reader!

What a great start to the new year in Crew Jackson today! We have had the busiest day ever and the children have all worked incredibly hard in their learning. I have been particularly impressed with the reading and retrieval of information both in our English lesson and in our artist research lesson.
The day started with a variety of crew building activities and it was so lovely seeing their great collaboration skills. Fantastic free-standing shoe towers were created and a great fact finding mission took to place to find out all about the other members of their crew. Check out the photos below.
Keep up the hard work tomorrow guys!
