UKS2’s celebration of learning!

UKS2 had their celebration of learning yesterday and we couldn’t be prouder! They were so excited to share their learning over the past term during this expedition where they engaged as artists, historians and scientists! The children shared the interactive map they have been working on which will be displayed in our local community in the coming weeks.
Thank you as always to our parents and carers for going our celebration. We really appreciate it!

Beautiful Work This Week

Beautiful Activism at Plover

As part of their Expedition ‘Once Upon a Time’, students in EYFS at Plover have raised money to provide boxes of books to local community organisations, including Doncaster and Bassetlaw Hospital Trust. They posted this update on their social media this week from their Children’s Ward, thanking students for their generous donation.

Genius of Steam and Speed

Across the Trust we have always researched and celebrated Doncaster’s railway story through expeditions. Lots of our students’ work is already out there in the community – including railway stations and parks. Our latest book, Rail City, is also on sale in Waterstones and the Danum Gallery, Library and Museum.

On the 23rd April a remarkable new exhibition – Gresley: Genius of Steam and Speed – will open at DGLaM, featuring artifacts, letters and stories about the man who engineered the Flying Scotsman and the Mallard in Doncaster.

Students from the Trust will be co-creating an audio guide which will be accessible through an app for the exhibition. We will also be helping to create rail related resources for the summer holiday programme of children’s events at DGLaM.

Festival of Football

A small group of Year 2 pupils represented our school in a Festival of Football at the EcoPower Stadium on Friday afternoon. They played a variety of different types of games, ranging from 3v3 all the way up to 6v6! They adapted to each style of game brilliantly and represented our school with style. The teams won the majority of the games they played and now have ideas of games they can play back on the playground at school. Well done to all six of them and a special mention to Angel and Evannas who won the outstanding player prizes.

2P at The Deep

We all had a fabulous time on our visit to The Deep. The children saw first-hand the negative impact humans are having on our seas and environments. 2P has decided that we must stop this and make a change!

We really enjoyed seeing a whole range of different species but seeing the sawfish and the stingray swimming over our heads was definitely a favourite! Take a look at some of the things we saw in our pictures below.
