The children have had a super start to 2022 and have thrown themselves into our new expedition: Why should we help our planet survive? This expedition will focus on the Amazon Rainforest and the animals and people that live there. We will discover how important it is to protect the rainforest linked to climate change and global warming. During hook week, the pupils learnt about deforestation through writing their own news reports and created some amazing group artwork of rainforest animals using mixed media.

Jolly Gingerbread Creations!
Following a day of preparation in the kitchen, 6CC have designed and produced an array of astonishing gingerbread creations as one of their Christmas week activities.
Christmas Quiz Madness!
It was final week before Christmas and all were relaxed, quietly reading their reading book. Then, Mr Cicero thought it best to introduce his big Christmas Quiz…
The tranquility was shattered. Friendships fractured (momentarily). Christmas chaos had well and truly begun!
Safe to say, 6CC fully enjoyed the start to their week! 👏🏻👍🏼😂
Stockings of success!
The class enjoyed sinking their teeth (or needles rather) into the task of making their own Christmas stockings from scratch. With resilience and the support of their parents, guardians and teachers, the class produced some fine, festive designs. Thank you to all the adults who came in to visit their children. We hope you have a very, merry Christmas! 🎄

Need for steam (and speed)!
Year 6 enjoyed a thrilling trip to the recently opened Danum museum in Doncaster City Centre on Wednesday. Learning about Doncaster’s deep rail heritage that began with George Edmundson; the classes learned about the mechanic of steam locomotives as well as the business brought to Doncaster that developed it into one of the UK’s industrial heavy weights.
Definitely worth a family visit!
A game of operations ➗✖️➕➖
After a busy unit of work spent practicing the four mathematical operations, budding pupils got their chance to strut their understanding in teacher-student pairs. Many completed the series of progressively challenging arithmetic style questions to discover the secret code…
Let’s tesellate!
This week has been maths week across the nation and across the school, our wonderful crews have been preparing individual colour cube.
Crazy Crew Caricatures!
As part of our Friday crew session, 6CC took it upon themselves to creatively reimagine each other through the artistic scope of Caricature.
As you can imagine, the excessively large noses, bulging eyes and wacky jawlines resulted in quite a roar of laughter. Full of smiles and laughter, perfect way to begin the end of the week!
Doncaster Plant Works!
On Monday, 6CC delved into the industrial history of “The Plant” aka Doncaster Plant Works. This organisation provided Victorian Doncaster with new employment opportunities as well as a name for producing some of the world’s most famous locomotives.
Balancing Act!
Year 6 have started a new unit of work in PE tis half term: gymnastics! We began by looking at different kinds of balance. The pupils worked in pairs and offered critique to one another via our praise and wonder protocol to help each other to improve. It was great to see the children collaborating and supporting one another.
