In-school rock and pop band lessons with Rocksteady!
It’s been fantastic to see the children having so much fun rocking out in their bands and learning new musical skills.

KS1 were visited by Tim from RockSteady today. He showed us all of the exciting instruments we can learn if we sign up to some music lessons. We drummed along, sang and played our air guitars! We had a great time and even made our own band by the end of the session. We had great fun and we’re really keen to start learning instruments. You never know, we could be having our own performances by the end of the year! Please check out the letter for details!

As part of developing our wider community crew, Laura from Doncaster Council came to launch an exciting project with our Year 6 pupils with the intention to make Doncaster a better place. They were so enthusiastic when sharing their ideas and articulating why their community is important to them. I can’t wait to see what comes of this exciting opportunity!

On our motivation Monday crew, Year & 6 children have been going head to head against other crews in a range of team building activities. This week, the children had to see how many baskets they could score in five minutes as a crew. I am so pleased to announce Crew Blackham were the overall winners!
I was so proud of the great sportsmanship I saw during this crew activity. We can’t wait to see what next week brings!

Some amazing team players from years 5 and 6 attended a basketball tournament for eight Doncaster primary schools.
We made it to the semi-finals through some careful passing and defence, building on the feedback from coach and team-mates on the bench. It was amazing to see how your game improved as you took onboard the suggestions from our team talks. Furthermore, you represented the school and our HoWLs marvellously and it was a pleasure to take you to the event. We are so proud of you!
Mr Schofield.
