We had lots of fun in the snow this morning. The children explored the ice and wrote their names in the snow.

Developing our sketching skills
Last week, Year 5 worked on their sketching skills to produce appeal posters for the RSPCA Doncaster branch. It was great to see you taking onboard the techniques of shading, stippling, and cross-hatching to improve the depth of your work.
A special shout-out to all the children who said “I can’t draw!” then demonstrated great courage to persevere and produce clear evidence of their abilities developing.
Courage in Year 5
Last week, our Year 5 children showed incredible courage as they took on a special mini-project all about the RSPCA. From the very beginning, they threw themselves into learning about animal welfare and the important work the charity does – approaching each task with enthusiasm, bravery, and curiosity.
As part of the project, the children explored real-life skills such as budgeting, percentages, and planning for fundraising or awareness campaigns. These topics can be challenging, but Year 5 tackled them head-on, showing confidence and determination as they worked through problems and made thoughtful decisions.
One of the highlights of the week was the creation of their beautiful leaflets promoting the Five Welfare Needs of Animals. Each leaflet was a fantastic blend of creativity and compassion, demonstrating not only their understanding of animal care but also their commitment to raising awareness in the wider school community.
We are incredibly proud of Year 5 – not just for the quality of their work, but for the courage they showed in trying new things, asking questions, and thinking deeply about how to help animals in need.
Well done, Year 5! Keep being brave, thoughtful, and brilliant.
Hansel and Gretel workshop
Wow, what an amazing morning we have had today! We were so lucky to have Kerry and Tash come in from CAST Theatre, to teach us the story of Hansel and Gretel, through drama. The children enjoyed getting into the roles of the different characters and exploring props. Once we had finished we went back to the create doughnuts, for the gingerbread house flooring, which we will see in CAST theatre when we go to visit. We are so excited to go and work with Kerry and Tash again at CAST theatre in a couple of weeks, and watch the performance of Hansel and Gretel.
Mrs Williams was so proud of how well everyone participated in this workshop, and the great respect and integrity all children showed towards our visitors. Well done nursery!

Remembrance Celebration 2025
Our KS1 children have been busy learning all about Remembrance Day and the importance of the poppy. They created a beautiful video to share what they’ve learned — from honouring brave heroes to understanding why we wear poppies with pride.
