Crew Jackson – Reading letters we wrote to our future self

At the start of year , everyone in Crew Jackson wrote letters to themselves about what they wanted to achieve by the end of Year 6. The children all thought really carefully about their own personal goals and aspirations – considered their HOWLs, character growth, crew, SATs, academic success and beautiful work. After they finished, they were sealed in envelopes addressed to themselves and put away to save for the end of the year.

This morning, they got to open their letters, read them again, see the progress they had made and find out how successful they had been at achieving their goals.

It was lovely to watch their faces and hear them talk about their achievements. You have an amazing year and I am so proud of everyone. Well done on all your successes this year! x

Crew Jackson – Book Fair Visit

This afternoon we visited the Book Fair to look at the different books available. We really enjoyed looking for books by our favourite authors and at new books that we might enjoy. We finished our visit by sharing some of the funny picture books – our favourite was ‘Who’s poo is this?’

Don’t forget the book fair is still open today after school and tomorrow at 8:15am, 3pm and 4pm. Still time to take advantage of the buy 3 for the price of 2.

Year 6 Leavers Hoodies have arrived!

Well, this morning was such a lovely crew session with children receiving their leavers hoodies; they have been waiting eagerly for them and were excited to final put them on! Children are welcome and encouraged to wear their hoodies with pride for their final half term in school. I must say, they look absolutely fantastic in them! A special thanks to the Y6 staff, parents, Friends of Green Top and Adele at TOGs for their efforts in making this possible.

Learning Council – D Day Shoutout!

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!

Year 6 First Aid Workshop

This afternoon the year 6 children took part in First Aid workshops. They learnt about how to respond if they come across an injured person or somebody who might be choking. They were also shown the correct method for chest compressions.

We hope the children never need to use any of the skills they have learned today but, if they ever do, hopefully they will be much better prepared to do so. To help children remember the information learned today, they have all taken away an information booklet alongside their certificate. Well done everyone!
