Our amazing children made waves at the Legacy swimming gala yesterday showing incredible skill, teamwork and sportsmanship. We are all so proud of their dedication and the fantastic medals they brought home – true champions in and out of the pool!
Our class had a fantastic visit from an animal expert who introduced us to some incredible creatures — including a snake, tarantula, skunk and meerkat! The pupils loved getting up close to the animals, learning about their unique habitats and discovering what they like to eat.
It was an unforgettable hands-on learning experience!
This week, Year 5 have been putting their creativity and research skills to the test by planning and writing their very own Amazon Rainforest Survival Guides.
From deadly predators to poisonous fruits, the children explored the challenges of surviving in one of the world’s most extreme environments. They thought carefully about the skills, equipment and knowledge needed to stay safe, and presented their ideas through engaging writing filled with detail and imagination.
More success today as the Y5/6 mixed cricket team secured silver medals. Unfortunately, the final did not go their way but there were stellar performances all around. A shout out to one of our youngest team members for her incredible performances over the last two days (girls and mixed cricket tournaments): Eleanora!
Well done to both the girls and the boys teams for all their practice during lunchtimes and break times. Onto the Y3/4 cricket tournaments in a couple of weeks time!
What an amazing effort from these guys this week. Over 1211 classes entered the SumDog maths week competition with over 12,000 children around the country playing. 5HJ worked with determination to achieve 13th place with 9 children actually completely the maximum 1000 questions. I couldn’t be prouder of you all! What a team!
On Thursday, Yr 5 & 6 were given the challenge to complete a 12 km walk to Brockadale Nature Reserve and back. 5HJ supported each other along way and showed huge levels of determination and stamina. The sun was shining and we all had a fabulous time. I can’t wait for the fantastic year ahead!
3LG have been in full baking mode this week in preparation for our Celebration of Learning. With a total of 190 cookies baked, we think we might have a few spares for a taste test!
This week has seen us adding the final touches to our Lowery inspired pictures which will be our final product for our current expedition. After practicing, 5HJ added people to their Doncaster scenes and what a good job they have done. The proportion and detail are fantastic! 😊
5HJ show-cased their musical ability during last week’s performance to parents. The children have been taking part in weekly ukulele lessons with the fabulous Mr Nicklin and learnt some fabulous songs. Parents were so impressed with the talent shown! 😊
A massive well done to the fabulous children who took part in the Christmas musical last night. They put on a super performance, sang their hearts out and delivered their lines like oscar worthy actors. Their hard work, giving up their lunch times, staying after school and being pulled out of classes paid off, with them giving a performance of a lifetime. Well done to everybody who took part, we are incredibly proud of you!
