For Flexible Friday Crew 5EG asked to make pizzas, and I couldn’t say no! So this morning everyone helped to make a wrap pizza, vegetables were available!
🌼🌺 Brodsworth Hall 🌺🌼
On Tuesday, year 3 were lucky enough to visit the beautiful Brodsworth Hall exploring the history of the house and it’s links to the transatlantic slave trade. The grounds are absolutely stunning and the children enjoyed looking at all the original pieces of furniture and artefacts inside.
HOWZAT!
For P.E this week, 6CC received some cricket training ahead of the second summer term. The warm up focused on heightening their alertness and reaction times ahead of a smaller game; we certainly have a high number of competitive individuals in Year 6!
Looking at developing their bowling and batting skills, the children moved onto a small, four-sided game, where all had a chance to show their stuff with a cricket ball and bat; following this, the class was then split into two teams for a class quick cricket match in the sun.
Y4 step into the past…
On Monday 18th May, the whole of year four spent a day at Brodsworth Hall to further immerse ourselves in our expedition exploring the history of sugar and slavery. Our children were full of wonder and amazement, particularly regarding the artefacts on show in the hall itself. Below are just a handful of photos from the day…
6SO visit Thackray Medical Museum!
Year 6 have had a great day at the Thackray Medical Museum in Leeds! We learnt about the gruesome history of diseases and the weird and wonderful treatments that were used in the past. We also found out just how far medicine has come and the amazing things that we can now do to cure injuries and illnesses in the modern day. The pupils were great role models as they walked around the museum and did the school proud as always.
6CC’s visit to the Thackray Museum!
On Tuesday, 6CC and 6SO visited the Thackray Museum in Leeds to gain an insight into the history of healthcare in Britain. The children began their journey at ‘Disease Street’: a Victorian street showcasing the horrifically unhygienic conditions and how medical emergencies were conducted at the time – without anaesthetic and any care for cleanliness. Further into the museum, the children learned about the stories behind some of the most prolific medical inventions and discoveries from the 1800s, such as Semelweiss and Lister. Watch our video to take a trip with us!

2022 Chance to Dance Champions
A massive well done to everybody that took part in the Y3 Chance to Dance Easter School. The performance you put on was absolutely amazing.
We are so happy and excited to announce that the winners have been selected and will be starting their tuition at Hazelbiz Performers Academy in September. Well done girls, we can’t wait to see how you get on as your dance journey continues.
Another busy week!
This week 5EG have been scientists, historians, and presenters! During our expedition lessons they have been studying the heart, how it works, why we need it and what it looks like. Each child was given the opportunity to study a lambs heart, and find all the key features. We also finally managed our walk to Campsall Church, to learn more about how the Plague affected our local area, while also learning about Campsall Hall.
The children were especially pleased to show off their amazing final product from our last expedition ‘Why should we help our planet survive?’. A big thank you to the parents that were able to make it, and I hope you are as proud of their work as they are.
Plenty s’more where that came from!
To celebrate completing this years SATs, 6CC took to the woodland area this morning to enjoy a very different treat. Following a safety briefing from our own outdoors expert, Mrs Blunt, each child roasted their own marshmallow under her guidance to make their very own s’more. It is no surprise the s’mores did not last long and the treat went down very well amongst the class.
