What does Crew mean to me?

3H have been really busy this week thinking about ‘What Crew means to them’ and how they could show this in an ‘act of kindness’. We realised quickly that Crew means looking after each other and the area we live and work in. To show an act of kindness, we decided to head out into the community and give it a good old clean up.

With litter pickers and bags in hand, 3H came back with more litter than I even imagined!

Well done everyone! Your act of kindness did not go unnoticed by your community!

Crew week

Year 4 have had a lovely morning learning about Plover Pantry and Fareshare. We have also taken part in some crew team building activities building spaghetti and marshmallow towers.

Anti-littering Activism in 3H

3H have spent time looking at a range of different anti-littering posters today. They critiqued the examples we gave them, pointing out the strong elements as well as areas which could be even better! Then designed their own. Some very thoughtful suggestions were made about why it is so important to make sure we ‘Bin it, don’t drop it!’

Well done guys. You were fab for Miss Wood this morning and worked so hard with me this afternoon too!

Also, I hope you enjoyed the time you spent with the graffiti artist…just look at your finished product! WOWEE! Please, please, please 3H, take your parents, carers and/or other adults who collect you from school around to see the wall you helped to paint. It really is a piece of art to be proud of and you’ll have your mark on the building forever! Imagine when you’re grown up and bringing your own kids to Plover…You could say, “I did that!”

Crazy colour fun in 3H!

Whilst getting to know each other today, 3H (mainly the adults) had their memories truly put to the test as we tried to remember everyone’s favourite colour. The children were amazing, the adults, well…a little more practice is definitely required!

Solving the problem of how to pass the ball without using your hands showed that you already know how to work together to overcome a problem! Check you out 3H! Let’s make this year an awesome one together!

Year 5 and 6 building crew

To build on our crew character traits, we undertook some team building and problem solving activities this afternoon as we got to know our phase crews better. Well done for working hard to solve the various tasks and challenges! We have more in store tomorrow!

Spreading kindness by making birthday cards for all!

Our HoWLs focus in our first week back is the ‘be kind’ strand. We have discussed lots of ways to show and spread kindness to our whole Plover crew. We started our first activity by creating birthday cards for all staff and our entire year group. When it is somebody’s birthday, they can take a card from the birthday box and feel special whilst reading all of the lovely messages written by our Year 6 crew.

We can’t wait to spread kindness throughout the year!
