Doncaster and Bassetlaw artwork competition winner!
All of our Year 5 & 6 pupils entered a recent competition help by Doncaster and Bassetlaw hospital. Our children created artwork and we choose the theme of ‘compassion’ one of our character traits. It is amazing to see that all of the children who entered, have their artwork displayed at the hospital. Lena was selected as the overall winner and here you can see she proudly showing off her beautiful work.
We would love you to go and visit the beautiful display and share any photos you take of your beautiful art work!
So proud of all of our 5/6 crew and of course, our lovely Lena!

Beautiful Bird Boxes
Fantastic craftsmanship and quality!
I am so proud of 6B who have worked so hard on the draft and re-draft process in their recent final write. The children have shown great examples of craftsmanship and quality when writing instructions on how to make a bird box.

Amazing craftsmanship and quality in DT!
Just look at this superstar sharing her amazing bird box design in today’s DT lesson. I was blown away by Ellie’s drafting and re-drafting to ensure her bird box incorporated all of the features we discussed to ensure it would be sustainable, sturdy and the most successful design. 10 crew coins for working hard!

Developing our sketching skills
Last week, Year 5 worked on their sketching skills to produce appeal posters for the RSPCA Doncaster branch. It was great to see you taking onboard the techniques of shading, stippling, and cross-hatching to improve the depth of your work.
A special shout-out to all the children who said “I can’t draw!” then demonstrated great courage to persevere and produce clear evidence of their abilities developing.
Hansel and Gretel workshop
Wow, what an amazing morning we have had today! We were so lucky to have Kerry and Tash come in from CAST Theatre, to teach us the story of Hansel and Gretel, through drama. The children enjoyed getting into the roles of the different characters and exploring props. Once we had finished we went back to the create doughnuts, for the gingerbread house flooring, which we will see in CAST theatre when we go to visit. We are so excited to go and work with Kerry and Tash again at CAST theatre in a couple of weeks, and watch the performance of Hansel and Gretel.
Mrs Williams was so proud of how well everyone participated in this workshop, and the great respect and integrity all children showed towards our visitors. Well done nursery!
