This week, we were visited by Matty Blair and Louis Jones who both play for Doncaster Rovers. Matty has played for England C and scored at Wembley (twice). Louis is at the start of his professional career but we did find out that he went to Trinity Academy. Also, a couple of PCSOs came in and talked to us about what they do and our responsibilities.

It has been good to be back hearing all about the children's Christmas holidays and what they did. This week we wrote New Year's Resolutions- lets hope they can keep them!

In here you can find facts that we have learnt about the environment.

The end of a fantastic term! We learnt lots about the Ancient Egyptians and shared our learning to adults and also performed our play, 'A Phaorah's Party. More recently, we have visited Drax learning about how they make power. We have had many visitors including: Olympic athlete Jenny Wallwork; Child Line; the Transport Police; the Dogs Trust; Phil Ainsley and his Lego; and the poet Ian Bland. Wow, so busy!

This week our new topic got going with a trip to Drax. We had a wonderful time learning about how they make our electricity and what they do to try and make it sustainable.

We came to the end of our Ancient Egyptian topic this week by celebrating our work and performing our play to the school and adults. Thanks very much to all those that were able to come in, it made it a much more enjoyable experience for the children.

It has been an exciting first week back! We have had a visit from the Dogs Trust learning about behaving safely round dogs and the dangers as well as what the Dogs Trust does. Also, the Rotary Club have been in and some of the children have done some planting.

We have had quite a hands on week. We had Mr Ainsley in from Lego who did some Computing and programming using Ipads and Lego on Monday - it was great fun! We have also started on our Egyptian Death masks- thanks to everyone who sent cardboard in. Newspapers next please...

This week we have had Harvest Festival, thanks to everyone who bought in food. Well done to Kaiden and Hayley who shared their artwork and Lillie, Mollie and Catherine who wrote and read poems.

Over half-way through the half-term and we missed some of the Year 6 children at Kingswood this week.
