Well done to our TTRockstars winners this week and to Crew Lotysz for being the overall TTRockstars champions for last week.

This week’s tournament is up and running, let’s see who will be next week’s winners.

Year 5 and 6 have done an incredible job researching the history of Doncaster. They have been a credit to the school and our community. We have had many comments from the public about their impeccable behaviour and respect for others, whilst enthusiastically learning.
Well done crew 5/6!

5L have been working hard perfecting their train drawings as part of their final product.

Today more children have been exploring and learning about our historic heritage around Doncaster on our Fieldwork.

Please see the attached letter we sent home for your information:

Dear Parents and Carers, 

In the week commencing 8th January, your child will be taking part in fieldwork to Doncaster town centre. 

This fieldwork has been planned to support their learning in Expedition and is a brilliant opportunity to bring the students’ learning to life in an exciting and engaging way. The experience will be used to support learning back in the classroom to help the children better understand the content and develop a deeper understanding of the industrial revolution in Doncaster. The event will cover the following:

• The use of public transport to Doncaster town centre bus station, 
• Look at the historic infrastructure around the wool market
• A look at the new artwork outside the train station 
• A walk to Doncaster Cathedral
• Return journey on public transport

The total cost of the trip will be £2.00, which will be the cost of the bus fare, this will be taken in cash onto the bus. All monies will have to be paid to your child’s class teacher prior to the field trip in order for them to take part.

Please ensure your child has sensible shoes and a coat for the fieldtrip. If you have any questions about this fieldwork, please contact your class teacher who will discuss it in further detail.

With thanks,

Miss Blackham

Assistant Headteacher

and UKS2 lead
