Don’t forget, all applications need to be handed in by Thursday 3rd February and I will be looking for 2 children out of each class in Years 2-5. Make your applications as appealing and as creative as possible.
A great big well done to Johnny who is our yellow T-shirt winner this week. It was lovely to see his great big smile when he found out! Johnny could have been our Pride of Plover every week because he always works hard and gives 100% effort. He is a great friend and coach and we are all so happy he is in our class.
The quantity and standard of home learning keeps getting better and better. From igloos to polar bears and models to fact-files you never ceases to amaze! Keep it coming!
Talliah and Kiara are always fantastic role-models. They work hard and produce fantastic learning but today they have both blown me away with kindness! In addition to completing their own learning they have been supporting other children and explaining their own ideas and understanding to enable the whole of 3LS to learn too. Well done girls!
3LS have loved looking through old and new photos of Doncaster landmarks. They were surprised to see just how much it has changed. Do you remember the old Belleview stadium or what was where the new airport is? We’ve been thinking about why these changes have been necassary.
LKS2 have had a fantastic day at the Yorkshire Wildlife Park.
This is the first ever event that has brought all the XP Primary Schools together, and we had to mark the moment with a photo – of course!

We started by visiting the first Polar Bears area and then walked round to the second Project Polar enclosure to see the young Polar Bears. They were very active eating their breakfast and playing in the water.
On our walk round, we were lucky enough to see tigers, giraffes, and rhinos.
After a quick lunch, we had a workshop all about polar bears and got to hold a real claw and see the size of a polar bear skull. Ara even demonstrated for us what it was like to be a polar bear.
Following that we set off to the new area of the park and saw sea lions, monkeys and red pandas.
We got back on the bus with achy legs but lots of great memories!
I was very proud of all our children today – they walked all day without moaning, participated brilliantly in the workshops and used their manners all the time – well done guys!
Well done to Julita who was our Pride of Plover last week, I’ve never seen anyone smile so big when their name was announced. You are such a wonderful role model to everyone and work hard to achieve the Plover Pledge every day. It is such a pleasure to have you in the class. Well done Julita!
Ara has really enjoyed our shared book, The Last Polar Bear. He has listened carefully and asked questions about new words in order to expand his vocabulary. Well done Ara. Keep up the great work!
