OSF Football Community Club

20th January 2025Joshua Meade

Great turn out for our 4.45pm-5.45pm community session! #LovePlover

Last week in KS1 the children enjoyed finding out all about keeping safe on the road. We were joined by Charlotte and Muffin the cat and learned all about how to walk safely near the road and how to safely cross the road using crossings. The children all enjoyed singing along and Stop, Look, Listen and cross in a straight line.

Thank you for coming to visit us, we loved it!

Farm in a box!

17th January 2025Mr Pickering

2P explored where lots of our food comes from through our ‘Farm in a box’. We looked at a wheat farmer and how they grow our wheat. After, we saw the journey our wheat makes to become flour and eventually our food. We looked at wheat plants and grain and even crushed some to see the flour inside! Our favourite part was matching animal poo to the correct animal because farmers see this as ‘black gold’.

Basketball Stars!

16th January 2025Mr Schofield

Some amazing team players from years 5 and 6 attended a basketball tournament for eight Doncaster primary schools.

We made it to the semi-finals through some careful passing and defence, building on the feedback from coach and team-mates on the bench. It was amazing to see how your game improved as you took onboard the suggestions from our team talks. Furthermore, you represented the school and our HoWLs marvellously and it was a pleasure to take you to the event. We are so proud of you!

Mr Schofield.
