Class Six Book Fairies
During crew week, Class Six asked ourselves “Does crew stop at the school gates?” We decided to be Norton Book Fairies and between Y2 delivered 20 books around Norton. These were left around the village for people to find and take home.
We hope everyone is enjoying our books and leaving them around the village for other people to find!!
Time Capsule ⏳
We spent the morning creating our very own class five time capsule. We wrote a letter to our future selves, drew around our hands, measured how tall we are and included a picture of our favourite things. We have sealed it ready to open it on the last day of year two to see how much we have learned and grown.
Introducing the new Class Five!
What a great first day back we had! We started the day with a Play-Doh challenge, followed by bingo! In the afternoon we shared the story Our Class is a Family (Here is the link if you would like to share the story at home!) We made an anchor chart of how we thought our classroom is like a family and added some art work of our families. We even managed to find a little bit of time for some construction!
Brilliant start to the year Class 5 – well done
Diverse Doncaster Fieldwork
Wow – what day! We started our day having a walk around the grounds at Cusworth Hall. The children took some great notes using their note catchers to use when we get back to class. We ran and rolled down the hill too – it almost tired us out! We spent some time at the top of the hill seeing which Doncaster landmarks we could spot – we found Doncaster Minister and the Hospital too. Next was the coach trip across to the Eco Power Stadium – more Doncaster landmark spotting – we found things like the Frenchgate, a mosque, gurdwara, Doncaster Train Station and we were very excited to see XP and XP East too! When we arrived at the stadium we had lunch overlooking the pitch followed by a stadium tour and a PE lesson. We were very excited to meet a VIP too – Donny Dog ❤️
We had an absolutely fantastic day – it was great to hear the children share lots of knowledge about Doncaster that they have been learning over the course of our expedition.
Well done Class Five
Fun in the Sun

Celebration Crew
We started the week by sharing some incredible independent writing and extended study that has been happening over the half term break. Well Done Key Stage One
Tuesday Reading Crew
Today Nursery Crew’s were each read a different story, The Magic Porridge Pot and The Wizard of Oz. The focus was to practise listening very carefully to understand and recall who the main characters are, what problems they encounter and how they solved the problems.
Crew Winkley and Crew Mortimer swapped crew leaders at the end of each story to question the children’s understanding and for each crew to explain to us what had happened in the alternate story. The children listened very well and were able to recall events and characters in detail! Well Done Nursery next week we will swap stories and practise again. Beautiful communication and listening skills – great work!
