Class 13 – Aspirations Week 💡

Thank you to all of our visitors who were able to come in and talk to the children this week. We were able to hear what it is like to work as someone who buys and sells medication across the world for hospitals, to be a quantity surveyor, a dancer, a business owner and even a firearms instructor at South Yorkshire Police. The children were so engaged and had so many questions for them all. Hopefully it will have inspired a few children to think about what they want to do when they get older.

Class 11 does Dragons Den! 🐲💰

Class 11 pitched various ideas for school improvement and making our school a better place. We discussed how we could make it better, such as recycling, school equipment for breaktime and litter picking.

However, some in Class 11 chose different ideas. These ranged from blinds at the top of the classroom, more play equipment and varying apps for school improvement. There was some fantastic ideas and even better questioning about each others school improvement ideas.

Have a happy Easter, Class 11 and thank you for my first term with you! 🙂

Class 11 Autism Awareness! 🧩

Yesterday, Class 11 learned about autism and what it is. We saw that autism is just another way of looking at the world, but can sometimes be overwhelming for some people. The children thought it would be a great idea to raise awareness and think about how we can help those that might have autism feel more included, understand their emotions and when to give someone with autism space to reset.

The children were enthusiastic and here they are in action creating their posters!

Year 3 Cruise Talk! 🛳

Yesterday, Year 3 were lucky to have Reef’s dad in to discuss what a career is like on the seas in the cruise ship industry. It is fair to say the children were excited by what they heard and what they saw, with lots asking and answering a variety of questions.

The children found it interesting that there was a hospital on board, lots of hot tubs and, more importantly, lots of Playstation’s and Xbox games consoles.

The children loved seeing the variety of wildlife that could be seen, especially the sleepy seals and the penguins. I think Cameron definitely inspired lots of people and he definitely has us dreaming of paradise in the Caribbean, as we break up for Easter!

Thank you for the talk! 😆

Crew Knowles: Presentation of Learning

We had a fantastic presentation of learning yesterday celebrating the end of our expedition. I was so proud of all the children teaching their adults and sharing all of the science and computing knowledge they have learnt this term! It was so fun to ‘test’ the adults with our Kahoot quiz at the end! Well done to Lucas and his family for winning!

The Golden Mile
