Maths Olympiad 2012

Mr Wain — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 08:26:06 +0000

Well done to the children who took part in the competition. We finished 3rd in this year’s competition!

FS2 topic this half term

Miss SHAW — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 20:08:05 +0000

Well that’s another half term holiday down and now it’s back to school. Just to let you know that our new topic this half term will be ‘Growing’. We will be looking at plants, animals and how we grow too. I’m sure it will be fun and full of information for all the children. For the first few weeks we will be combining ‘Growing’ and ‘Fairytales’. We will be looking at ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’ first and then the ‘Enormous Turnip’.

If any of you have any seeds, plants, herbs etc that we could grow we would really appreciate them. We are really going to concentrate on developing our outdoor area so all donations will be appreciated eg plants, tubs, gardening equipment, furniture etc.

Thank you

Dear School,

The BROOKS RUN DONCASTER 10KM event is run in conjunction with DMBC. This will be Doncaster`s first ever mass participation 10km road run and Community Challenge Fun/Run which is being run over 2km.

The event is starting and finishing at our famous Doncaster Racecourse and taking in TOWN FIELD, MARKETS AREA, FRENCHGATE CENTRE and returns to finish at RACECOURSE.

I wish to inform you that printed entry forms will be on their way to you shortly. Please would you be so kind to distribute amongst pupils and staff to encourage participation in what is going to be a great event for the town.

The main race is aimed at adults over the age of 16 years who can run 10km, but we have a great FUN/RUN which is just over 1mile and aimed at anyone that wants to take part who maybe under the age of 16 or not quite ready to run the 10k!

Year One – Baking with Hugh’s mummy!

Mrs COLLINS — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 18:13:03 +0000

Mrs Collins, Mrs Goodwin, Mrs Parkin and everybody in class one would like to say a great big thank you to Hugh’s mummy who has joined us every Thursday to bake. We have enjoyed cherry scones, oaty bake, and apricot digger buns to name but a few! We enjoy our baking delights on a friday when we have our milk or water.

Yum Yum – Delicious!

Next term we are hoping to make breads to link with our castle theme!

Once again many thanks to Hugh’s mummy !

Year one – raft and boat building

Mrs COLLINS — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 17:18:06 +0000

Our pirate topic this week helped us to improve our science skills. Early in the week we looked at the properties of materials and helped a mermaid to mend her torn tail. We then used the knowledge we had gained to build rafts and boats. Our challenge was not only to build a raft that floated but that could also carry pirates!! We had great fun selecting materials and trying out our ideas over at the testing station. We certainly were building our learning muscles as we tried to solve problems and work collaboratively.

Class 2 visit to Police & Fire Museum.

Mrs KANTECKI — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 15:12:43 +0000

We all had a fantastic day in Sheffield at the Police and Fire Museum. It was VERY cold – thank goodness we all wrapped up!
