Good morning 5/6!

Good Morning to our lovely year 5 & 6’s.

I hope you are well and had the best Christmas possible given the circumstances! Hopefully you have had time to relax and recharge your batteries ready for all the learning we are going to do together this term. Although it isn’t going to start quit as we had planned, I promise it will be a good one!

Learning is going to be different to how we first planned, it will be different to the last time we had lockdown, with more teacher led sessions online, but I know that even though it is different, we will still be able to enjoy our new Expedition together.

There will be our first hangout at 1:30 this afternoon where you can see your teachers, find out more information and ask any questions. Here is the link- https://meet.google.com/ubm-hoij-uys?authuser=0  Or you can follow the link straight from Google Classrooms or here If you need to speak to a teacher before then, you can send an email ([email protected] or [email protected]), send a message on Google classroom or ring school, but please be aware that the phone lines may be very busy.

Lots more information will come out through the day, so please keep an eye on the school website and blog, but I just want to reassure you that we are still here for you, you do not need to worry, if you find anything tricky or difficult, we can help you with it.

I have attached a copy of our learning from home timetable onto this blog post- Years 5&6 working from home timetable

See you this afternoon at 1:30- we miss you all!

Plover does Band Aid!

We didn’t get to do Christmas concerts this year so years 5&6 wanted to do their own version of Band Aid to spread a little Christmas cheer. I just wanted to say how proud I am of my lovely phase and I am sure you are all very proud of your children too! So Merry Christmas from the 5/6 team and we can’t wait to see you back in 2021! Stay safe everyone!

Christmas Whole School Assembly – 2020 style

Adapting and changing has been the norm in 2020 and no more so when it comes to assemblies in bubbles!

Well done Mrs Ogle for organising our end of year whole school quiz! I wonder which class will be the winner?

Our last Christmas dinner in primary school!

Yesterday, Y6 had so much fun at their last ever Christmas dinner at Primary School! As you can see there were lots of laughter and spreads of Christmas cheer! We just want to give a shout out to Adele and her team for cooking the most delicious dinner! This term may have been different to other terms but it won’t stop us having fun and making those precious memories!

WWII: What is Doncaster’s story?

Our Year 5/6’s have been working extremely hard to produce a product on their latest Expedition- WWII: What is Doncaster’s story?

The children have engaged in standards based learning all linked to WWII and Doncaster! The children have produced a range of stunning postcards which have been put together by a professional graphic designer to sell to the public. Please watch our video and postcards are available to purchase from the office for £5 per pack. Monies raised will be put back into phase funds to support future Expeditions and trips!
