Who’s trip trapping over my bridge?!

9th May 2025Amy Woods

For case study 1 we have been looking at the key text, The 3 Billy Goats Gruff. After reading the story, we collaboratively created a story map, before acting it out ourselves in small groups.
The children showed great courage in acting out the roles infront of their peers.

First on the scene

25th April 2025Mr Schofield

In English, we looked at the descriptive language used in a Pathe news report of the horrific 1966 Aberfan mining disaster. After, children were challenged to act as journalists and report from the scene. It was great to hear your news reports come to life! Well done.

Miners Dress Up in 5S

16th April 2025Mr Schofield

As part of our hook week into ‘At the Coalface’, Year 5 today came to school dressed as coal miners. We participated in some immersive P.E. which encouraged us to imagine the life of children – many of whom were our age – expressing their feelings, emotions and actions through the medium of dance.

We Are Storytellers!

9th October 2024Amy Woods

Our nursery children have been working hard to re tell the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. We used props during our expedition session to re tell the story altogether, the children then independently carried this on in provision.

1C Recount A Trip… Through Drama!

19th June 2024Kathleen Cunningham

Yesterday, 1C recounted their trip to The Deaf School using actions and signs! This helped us remember what we did in chronological order, in order to help us prepare to write up our own recounts of the day!

Danum Read Aloud Competition

14th March 2024Mrs Graves

After a rigorous round of heats and a highly competitive semi-final, our Read Aloud Finalists really did themselves proud!

Reading the openings from a variety of books, they performed in front of the KS2 children with great confidence and to a very high standard.

It was a very difficult decision to choose a winner but I am very pleased to announce that Johnny Connor in 5M was selected to represent our school at the Doncaster Final later in March at the Danum Museum and Art Gallery.

Good Luck Johnny, I am sure you will be great!
