On Tuesday, we were thrilled to have Phil Sheppard from the National Literacy Trust and Doncaster Stories deliver a workshop about the Iron Man, to support the reading we have been doing.
Phil guided us through how to draw the Iron Man, using some of the techniques book illustrator Chris Mould used when illustrating the book, the Iron Man.
We were very proud of the result!
We are looking forward to working with Phil again on World Book Day.

Happy New Year!
We have had a great start to our new expedition – “The Power of Life – what makes us human?”
It was great to see all costumes in the “dress-up as a robot’, especially all the time and effort that had gone into the outfits.
We spent the morning in our crews in mini workshops to give us a flavour of some of the learning we are going to be doing this term. Children had to workout the guiding question using clues given at the end of each workshop.
Children enjoyed exploring the internal organs, skeleton and muscles using AI and interactive games. They had a go at classifying robots, made electronic circuits, created robots and had fun with jigsaws.
As reward for solving the puzzle and in preparation for Friday’s learning, we spent the afternoon watching the film Robots.

Years 3 and 4 have worked with each of the six crew leads today to carry out a range of activities that link to our new learning. If successful, they were given a word from the crew leader. Then they had to shuffle these words around so they made sense as a title and question. We finally worked it outā¦
The power of life: What makes us human?
Well done to everyone who managed to complete Mrs Haycockās challenge of beat the buzzer. Everyone successfully built their wire buzzer (or in our case light) game! Extra shout out to the 6 children who managed to complete the game without setting the buzzer off.
I hope you all had fun in my session guys; I know I had lots of fun and that I am very proud of you all!

Thank you for my thoughtful leaving prezzies everyone!! I love them, and can’t wait to fill up my photo album!!
We invite children in Year and 4 to come to school dressed as a robot on Monday 6th January to launch our spring expedition.
Please don’t go to any expense – homemade is great.
As part of the day, we will be watching the film Robots which is PG rated. Please inform your child’s class teacher if you do not consent to your child watching this film.
We will be needing cardboard boxes and tin cans to help with our activities in the first week and would be grateful if you could send them into school at the start of the week.
On Friday 10th January, we will be having our ‘Create-a-Robot’ Family Learning event and would love it if you could join us in school at 2pm.
Please see our home-learning task sheet attached.
We look forward to seeing you in the New Year

Thank you to everyone who joined us this afternoon at Harvest Fields Church in Intake for our Christmas Celebration.
A big thank you to Pastor Andrew Golba and the congregation of the church who supported us in the preparation and delivery of the celebration – it was lovely to celebrate in the community.
Well done to all the children who took the time to learn their lines, practised moving in style or sang beautifully – you made us all very proud.
Have a wonderful Christmas and a very happy new year.

Please make sure your child brings a plastic bag to school on Thursday, so that they can take everything from their drawer home.
Thank you.
