We’ve had a lovely day this morning meeting our new class teachers, friends and spending time in our new environment! The children have been so calm, kind and hard working!

Making memories in London
Y6 had such an amazing time in London. I’m sure they have shared many stories with you from the scenic river cruise, watching Back to the Future and having a thrilling experience at Legoland. We hope these memories will last a life time and they have caught up on their sleep ready for their final few days at Plover.
Fantastic London Trip
We have had a wonderful couple of long days in London and Legoland.
Yesterday, we saw famous sights, enjoyed a river cruise along the Thames and watched the musical Back to the Future.
Today has been a day of rollercoasters and rides.
I’m sure we are all looking forward to getting into our beds tonight.
Many thanks to Miss Blackham for all the initial planning and organising, to Mr Pickering for taking over the leading of the trip, which he did incredibly well, to Miss Lotysz, Mrs Carter, Miss Lister, Muss Garnham and Emma for accompanying the trip and for giving so much of your time.

EYFS Celebration of Learning
What a wonderful morning we had yesterday at our Plover Palace Ball. The children were the star of the show with their red carpet walk, celebratory toast and fun dancing. It was lovely to see so many grow ups share the pride of the EYFS final product and their beautiful learning – book marks, F2 stories/ebook and F1 nursery rhyme booklet. #LovePlover
Primary Engineer!
A few weeks ago, children in Year 5 engaged with Primary Engineer and Siemens to work on a project to build a working locomotive, using new tools and skills to develop and create a ‘train’ locomotive that progressed their knowledge of Design, Technology and Science.
The children can all be very proud to say they worked in small teams to build working locomotives that were able to travel in straight lines (as on a track) and carry a small load. Myself and the other teachers were extremely impressed with how brilliantly everyone engaged with the work and took care to ensure their products fitted the brief.
Then – today – three children were selected to attend the celebration event where they were interviewed about the development of the design, their involvement in improving the quality of the working parts, and tested its usefulness in carrying a load on a straight line – just like a real train! They were a credit to the school and presented us beautifully with their ‘Flying Scotsman’ inspired design, making links to our coal mining expedition and Doncaster.
Well done year 5!
