After communication this morning with Public Health England and the Local Authority we have decided to have a Covid Preparation Day on Monday 4th January 2021 to finalise our plans for the Spring Term. Spring Term for the children will therefore begin on Tuesday 5th January 2021. Further communication will follow. We apologise for the short notice but I am sure you are aware of the current situation we as schools are facing.
Thank you for your continued support.

Photographs that changed the world!
Well done to all the children in years 5 and 6 for their tremendous hard work this term. They have been on a journey, exploring the development of the camera and how the world has changed as a result of iconic events, remarkable people and even several disasters!
Watch the video here to gain insight into their expedition and let them introduce you to the culmination of our journey: their rather impressive final product!
To begin our Christmas topic, 6CC started looking at characters from Charles Dickens’ ‘A Christmas Carol’ and have explored the texts central character, Ebenezer Scrooge. Safe to say that Mrs Doy, Mrs Gyte and myself all had a few frights in Tuesday’s literacy lesson when the children got to reenact his character description; turns out we have some very convincing performers in our midst!
As you can see, our ‘Final Products’ are exceptional pieces of work. The children showed absolute resilience, working hard to produce a non chronological report about either a moth or bee. In addition, you can see the detailed pencil sketches. Here the children have used and applied different shading and tone techniques to create their own beautiful artwork of their mini beast.
Here it is, the final product for our Autumn Expedition: ‘What does the human race owe to insects?’
The children have worked tirelessly on drafting and redrafting their written work and artwork which have yielded some quite superb outcomes.
Well done 4GC!
A huge thank you to all the staff, pupils and parents who have supported us throughout our expedition this term. The pupils have produced some absolutely amazing learning and they are extremely proud of their final product. Take a look at the video via the link below to find out more about their incredible learning journey.
Thank you to our families and staff who donated so generously with selection boxes, mince pies and biscuits. They will be a welcome addition to the Christmas food hampers which are being distributed across over 9,000 Doncaster families this Christmas period.
A quite superb effort everybody
