As an introduction to our new Expedition, we became YouTuber’s and made our own dance video. Our topic is Ready, Steady, Grow and we are going to be learning all about how to live a healthy lifestyle. We created a video to teach you some dance moves so you can dance along at home too. GO BANANAS!

There’s been some evil things happening in 1Cr!
What a start to the new year! We arrived in our classroom this morning to see some terrible crimes had been committed whilst we were away. We hunted the classroom to take pictures of the crime scene, we made predictions about who could have done these terrible things and we shared our new class text! Our new class text is Supertato! We looked at the front cover and talked about what we predicted might happen in the story. After reading an email from the kitchen about some peas going missing from the freezer, we believe we know who our culprit is! EVIL PEA!
As we don’t have Supertato at our school, we designed our own Super Vegetable/Fruit! Someone who could fight our villain, who is still at large!
Humph the Camel – KS1 2024
Introduction to Numbots
Dear Parent/Carer,
We are delighted to inform you about an online learning platform called NumBots that we’re using to support your child’s understanding of number bonds and to help their addition and subtraction skills. These are the essential building blocks for higher-level maths concepts, so we are excited by the impact that NumBots will have on your child’s learning.
We will also be celebrating children’s achievements each week in our community crew, where we will be presenting the children’s certificates.
Logging In
The children have been shown how to log in and have brought home a username label containing their unique login details. NumBots can be played on a browser (play.numbots.com) or via the app which is free to download on Amazon, Android and Apple devices. They may need help entering the details, but once they’re in they will be able to play the game on their own.
Please ask your child’s teacher if they are struggling to login.
Important: Please don’t allow siblings, friends or family to answer for them, as the programme progresses at the pace of each child. Do feel free to support your child if they’re stuck and give them encouragement to keep trying even if it takes a number of times to complete a level.
Children should all have logged in at school and be aware of how to log in.
Little and often
In order to get the best out of NumBots, we recommend that children play regularly for short bursts at a time, aiming for 3 minutes, five times a week.
Game Types
- Story Mode – the emphasis is on learning the ideas and concepts behind addition and subtraction so it features more diagrams, representations and question styles.
- Challenge Mode – the emphasis is more on speed of recall of key facts, like number bonds to 10, doubling small numbers or adding & taking away in your head.
Please let your child’s teacher know if you have any questions or comments.
Pride of Plover
Yellow crew disco!
Yesterday, yellow crews enjoyed a belated reward for their efforts during the summer term (you may recall we postponed it due to bad weather), in the form of a disco! The children had a great time and should be proud of how hard they worked at their HoWLs during the summer term to earn this reward.
It was also lovely to note that all three crews received an award for coming top of crew coins for the terms of last year. ☺️
Fantastic model making
Well done Billy for your fantastic model making. I praise how you selected the equipment, how you measured the pieces and how you constructed it together.
