Our day two hook was an active walk through Intake, our local community. We explored some of Intakes landmarks and found out some historic information about Danum Secondary School, Sandall Beat Woods, Doncaster Racecourse and Doncaster Deaf Trust. Thank you to the parent helpers for your support and well done to all of the children who walked, talked, asked and answered lots of questions – linking to our previous expeditions as well as our current expedition!
The children really enjoyed their first day back at school and looked amazing in their outfits from the past. We used this to explore vocabulary about the past, present and future and compared sources of information to spot similarities and differences.
We also used our expert visitor who used a drone to show us parts of Doncaster as seen from the air! It was really exciting to get a new perspective on our community.
We are all ready to get stuck into our new expedition!

It was marvellous seeing the children dressed in such smart and old fashioned clothes. We enjoyed a crew challenge. Geoff the expert showed us some aerial view photos of Intake and Doncaster. We learnt about some history of Doncaster and explored a time capsule and artefacts found within Plover! #LovePlover
A huge, huge appreciation and thank you from 1M, Plover school and Mrs Ogle for Maria! We were all so touched at the generous £110 donation Maria has raised from auctioning off her beautiful art work from last expedition, for school funds towards helping animals at our school! #LovePlover
Many congratulations to Atlas, who trod the boards at the Doncaster Little Theatre over the Easter holidays.
He played the the central character of Pinocchio and even had to sing a solo of ‘I’ve got no strings’. Atlas had a great deal of lines to learn and spent a long time in rehearsals to prepare for the role.
Atlas brought a lovely collection of photos from the show to share with his class and crew.
Well done for your commitment and dedication Atlas, you have made us all very proud.

Just look at this beautiful artwork created by Seb which has been created in the style of the book The Last bear! Well done young man, you’re a star.

On Monday 15th April Year 5 will kick start their summer expedition ‘how does a healthy lifestyle impact your body and mind?’ by immersing into their history case studies and becoming Egyptians for the day. We would love children to come dressed as Egyptians. We are encouraging parents to make use of any items they already have to avoid purchasing anything new. We hope the ideas above will help. If you are struggling for ideas, please see your child’s class teacher.
