Thank you for doing us at our Celebration of Learning on Friday.
It is amazing to reflect on how much we have covered this term as we listen to the children talking about it and went through the exercise books.
I think the singing was the most beautiful performance we have ever had and the final product went down a treat!
Thank you to Mrs Williams (Julianna’s Mum) for taking the basket of goodies to the Care Home.

Well done to local grass roots team Sandall Beat U9’s!
Samuel, Bobby, George, Lucas, Jaxon, Lamar, Theo, Jenson and Nelson are all Plover pupils. It was their first ‘proper’ tournament as Under 9’s and they won the league but sadly lost out on penalties in the final game. All of the children worked brilliantly, showing fantastic teamwork! #LovePlover
We first opened in September of 2014 in Doncaster and began to offer a creative and purposeful curriculum based on learning expeditions that connect subjects together so that learning is deepened and made relevant. Ten years on we have established a successful Trust that has shared this model with two more secondary schools, XP East in Doncaster and XP Gateshead, as well as five primary schools in the Doncaster area including: Carcroft Primary, Green Top Primary, Norton Infants, Norton Juniors and Plover Primary.
Our students create beautiful work that connects to the community and the world through the creation of high quality products that actively serve to make the world a better place.
To kick off our celebrations we are hosting our first community wide ‘Music and Arts Festival’ at XP East on the 12 July. This will become an annual event to bring together creatives from across the XP community, the wider community and the world to show why the Arts are so important to making our world more just, more beautiful and more humane and why they are at the heart of our curriculum.
We look forward to seeing you at the start of our festivities and hope you will join us as we continue to celebrate and share our stories throughout the rest of 2024 and 2025!!!

Today we were demonstrating our British Values of Democracy by holding our very own school election.
Following Wednesday’s hustings assembly (imagine a much more polite version of the leadership debate), children voted for their favourite candidates for Plover Pupil Leadership team, which would consist of a Pupil Headteacher and 3 Assistant Headteachers.
Children were checked in at the registration desk and then went to the polling booths to make their secret vote. Following that, they posted their votes into the sealed ballot box.
Year 6 pupils, Sienna, Costa, Ashton and Lara worked really hard as election officials and counting the votes at the end of the election.
I am pleased to announce that the Pupil School Leadership will be: Tim (Pupil Headteacher), Eifa (Pupil Assistant Headteacher), Violet (Pupil Assistant Headteacher and Caleb (Pupil Assistant Headteacher. They were delighted when they were informed they had won and are excited to start their roles.
Thank you to all the children who engaged in the elections in such an enthusiastic way throughout the day.

I’ve just completed my vote for the general election… but more importantly 1M have cast their votes for the ‘Plover Pupil Election’. The children respected and loved the authenticity of the polling station, to vote for their Pupil Leadership candidate! Tune in to Plover Blogs for the Election results… other media coverages are also available. #LovePlover
We had a fantastic afternoon celebrating our expedition. Thank you to all the parents and carers who attended.
Here are a couple of videos of the children’s performances.
