In PE this week we developed our throwing and catching skills. Then we have had lots of fun working on our fundamentals ABCs during outside provision! #LovePlover

We care Wednesday Crew

20th April 2025Mrs Haycock

In Crew this week, Years 3 and 4 have been thinking about the health of their bodies as well as their mental health too. They have discovered that exercise is not only good for bodies, but that it also activates and cleanses minds; making people feel happier from the serotonin and endorphins that are released during the time that they exercise! Aerobic exercises like running, cycling and swimming are particularly effective. Exercise boosts the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) which supports the production and release of serotonin as well as overall brain health! Because of this, Crew Haycock and 3H have pledged to carry out some physical exercise (in addition to their PE lessons in school) for ten minutes a day.

Go Crew Haycock – you’ve got this and so have I. I pledge to do this additional exercise with you!

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.

What a lovely day!

15th April 2025Joshua Meade

In Crew Meade today we have all had a wonderful day and have all been brilliant! We played ‘Easter’ ball games in PE. Then we started our Easter cards. Finally, we learnt about why we celebrate Easter and the Easter story – celebrating the beginning of new life! #LovePlover
