Good morning everyone,
We hope you’ve all had a fantastic break.
Just a quick reminder, the children are invited to wear Halloween fancy dress tomorrow (31.10.22) for a day of spooky learning…
We also have our special Halloween lunch menu.
We are looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow 💀👻🎃

In reading this week we’ve been challenging ourselves and our partners to develop our fluency by seeing who can read more words in 1 minute!
We’ve also enjoyed using SumDog on the iPads to consolidate our maths learning.
Here’s a selection of beautiful work from across the XP Trust this week!

In our Crew time we thought about what kindness looks like. We decided to make it our mission to put a smile on someone’s face. We succeeded…
Miss Tunney and I have had the most lovely day! We wanted to see and hear about all the amazing learning going on across our campus, so rather than sit in our office flicking through work, we invited the owners of the exercise books to share their work instead.
We have had children in our early years reciting We’re Going on a Bear Hunt with actions, students in key stage one sharing some fantastic knowledge about castles and how their expert visitor helped them towards answering their guiding question, lower key stage two being so enthusiastic about their core text, The Lion and the Unicorn and finally year five and six explaining how clear and specific critique has helped them to improve their work into versions they are incredibly proud of.
To all of those children who shared their learning with us, thank you. It was a real privilege to hear about your learning so far this year. You all spoke confidently and showed real enthusiasm for your expeditions and the beautiful work you are producing.

Year 1 talked about their feelings, worries and excitements; We discussed different ways to show kindness, compassion and support.
We would like to announce that Norton Infant won the football competition making us very happy and proud. What a wonderful team work and resilience you have shown. Well done to Stanley who scored the hat-trick goal!
Our determined team of year 2s set off to Campsmount this afternoon for the football festival. We are so proud of them, not only did they behave impeccably, but they acted with great sportsmanship.Â
They also won every game they played and returned to school champions with a beautiful new trophy and their medals!
A huge thank you to Mrs Wojcik and Mrs Thurman for accompanying them. (and cheering very loudly! 📣)
You are all great ambassadors for Crew Norton.
