Reception – Crew Carter are working hard!

Today in reception Ollie and Arlo have been working hard in their expedition lesson to think about the features of their local area and then compare this to our stories ‘Handa’s Surpise’ and ‘Little Red Riding Hood.’ The boys created their very own map and anchor chart using super phonics!

Scarlett write a fantastic list of different modes of transport she has seen in Thorne along with many other words she could spell! Fantastic phonics all round! Well done to you all!

Year 3 Magna fieldwork

We’ve all had a fantastic day today at Magna. We had a great workshop this morning all about volcanoes and rocks. We’ve explored some exhibitions and managed to have a look in the shop and play on the amazing park before lunchtime. Thank you to all of our parent helpers today we really appreciate you giving up your time to support year 3. Our kids did us proud today setting a great example of how to behave when out and about, we are very proud of you all.

Y5&6 Community Crew

Thursday saw our first UKS2 community crew of the summer term and it was clear that all our crews have got off to a great start. Top of the agenda was the battle for accelerated reader, with Crew Ambler still clinging tightly onto first place … which crew will overcome them first?

Congratulations go out to all those children receiving shout outs & HoWL certificates this week, and a huge well done goes to all of this week’s OOTW superstars – keep up your fabulous work!

Ks1 skipping week

The children have all been practising their skipping skills this week and we have been keeping a tally of how many skips have taken place across school. I’m so proud of the efforts that the children have put in to learning how to skip and can’t wait for the skipping race on sports day!

Well done guys!

Crew Knowles Rocks!

Today we completed an investigation to find the best rocks for different scenarios. We had to test the different properties of the rocks to find the most suitable rock for a worktop, a statue, a skate park ramp and a roof! This involved sanding, water and using vinegar on the rocks!
