Beautiful Work | Norton Infant School

Diverse Doncaster Fieldwork

3rd May 2022Laura Parsons

We have had an absolutely fantastic day exploring the history of Doncaster. The children took part in a workshop studying artwork, handling artefacts and asking expert questions.

The children took lots away to help them with their expedition – Diverse Doncaster – Where do I belong?

They all behaved impeccably. They were kind and considerate to other members of the public – several people commented on how well they conducted themselves. All of the grown ups were very proud to enjoy the day with your children.

I’ve put together a video of photographs from our day – I hope you enjoy them.

Getting ready for our learning with the daily mile

24th March 2022Claire Goodyer

It was so lovely to complete our daily mile in the sunshine today. It woke us up after lunch and helped us to feel alert and ready for maths.

We used a variety of equipment to represent numbers to 50 by making tens in maths today. The children were great collaborators and were able to demonstrate their explanation and reasoning skills whilst supporting each other in their learning.

This week we have been considering the question ‘What is geography?’ We took part in a scavenger hunt around school to photograph clues that helped us to answer the question. We studied a variety of maps identifying their features and finally located the 7 continents and 5 oceans of the world.
