Giving back to our mining community…

7th May 2021Miss Blackham

Today, Noah, Lola and Agrima represented crew 5/6 and took the money we raised for Markham Main mining memorial to Dennis along with copies of our anthology of poems. The poems will be placed on a plaque to go inside the memorial garden. We feel proud of our mining community and we desperately wanted to give something back to them once we had learnt all about the miners and how they shaped Doncaster in our last Expedition. The sponsored walk was an amazing way to raise funds and we’d like to thank everyone who took part and sponsored our pupils. The anthology of poems are available to purchase for £1 each and the money raised will be donated to Markham Main. We are so proud of you all 5/6!

Well done to the lovely Lola for winning the yellow T-shirt award this week! Lola has been amazing in maths and has shown great resilience. She has worked so hard to ensure she achieved her ME and she also produced a stunning (and very informative) poster on steel in Expedition! Keep it up superstar!

We are Scientists!

6th May 2021Lucy Wood

5W have been keeping up the great work this week! We have taken part in some more Science experiments. This week we delved into exploring what happens to different solutes when mixed with water. We found that some solutes such as sugar dissolved whereas others like pepper and gravy granules had a different effect on the water. The children learnt a lot about scientific vocabulary and had a fantastic time reflecting on what they learnt.

Super scientists!

6B have been super scientists throughout the whole of case study one. The scientific vocabulary they have been using during their experiments has been amazing! In this session, the children were testing materials to see if they were soluble or insoluble. We saw some awesome predictions before the experiment and some great reflections after the experiment! I am really proud of you 6B! Well done!

Wonderful Week!

30th April 2021Mrs Graves

What a great week we have had in LKS2 this week!

We began the week by setting up our scientific experiment, to investigate the impact of different substances on our teeth. We did this by covering eggs in different liquids – coke; milk; water; and orange juice. We looked at the results yesterday and looking at the reactions of the egg shells, it is safe to say that coke and orange juice are not good for your teeth! We have to make sure we brush our teeth well after drinking them!

We continued our learning about how to make Doncaster more healthy, with an expert visitor – Mr Price a paramedic. The children had lots of great questions and were fascinated by what Mr Price had to say.

We are looking forward to what more we will learn next week!

We will see you all on Tuesday!
