KS1: Visitor

11th September 2025Carly Schon

Key stage 1 will be taking part in an interactive drama workshop, which will be delivered by an organisation called ‘The Drama Hut’. It will be taking place at school on Thursday 25th September. It won’t affect any of their lunch time. 

The workshop will link directly to their expedition work and will help to enhance their knowledge of The Great Fire Of London, as well as being lots of fun! 

The cost of this workshop works out to be £6 per child. Please make the payment for this on ParentPay before Thursday 25th September. 

Thanks again for your support

Nursery: play and establishing routines

9th September 2025Elizabeth Hay

This week we have welcomed some new friends to nursery who are doing a great job of settling in. The children have been playing beautifully and are starting to learn some basic rules and routines in our nursery. There has been lots of painting, building, physical play, lots of story reading, snack eating, bubble blowing, role play and friendship making.

I wonder what tomorrow will bring?

Class 5 Heroes!

5th September 2025Carly Schon

Look at all these little heroes ready to help our planet! We loved dressing up today as part of our Hook Week activities. This week we have been learning about our new expedition ‘Not all Heroes Wear Capes; What will I do to be a hero in my community?’. We have been settling into our daily routines and making lots of crafts to immerse our classroom. The children have been super stewards in our classroom and have been looking after all the resources and making sure they are tidied away. Keep it up class 5 – you have been AWESOME!

Class 5: First Week Back!

30th August 2025Carly Schon

Wow what a week we have had in Class 5. It has been so lovely getting to know the children even better they are awesome! I have already seen how brilliant the children are at displaying courage and overcoming any worries or concerns they have. They are very resilient and we have had so much fun completing our first week back activities. Two of our highlights were visiting the XP Outdoors camp where we toasted marshmallows to make smores and sang funny camp songs with Mr Kershaw. It was so lovely seeing the children smiling and laughing along. We also loved our Water Extravaganza especially the water guns, wet sponge obstacle course and Mrs Raynors soggy disco!

For our learning this week we have been answering the guiding question ‘How does what I do impact others?’. We have learned about reducing, reusing and recycling materials to help conquer climate change. We have been drawing pictures to decorate recycling boxes for all the classes in school. We had a lovely lady called Lynne come in to visit us to teach us all about what happens with our waste in Doncaster. The children have been really engaged and compassionate.

I am very excited for our Hook Week next week where we will learn what our Autumn Term Expedition will be and do lots of crafts to decorate our classroom!

Here are some photos of our week! (Water Extravaganza will be shared in a whole school post!)
