Crew CBO update

Chris Boxall

Another great week in Crew! we have been selecting a charity which we will start to raise money for, and we have also spent time in crew looking into the theme of identity. Each member of my crew created an outline of their face and filled the diagram with what makes their personal sense of identity.

We have also taken photos using the photography studio lighting kit so that teachers can see what my crew looks like when they are logging all the wonder praise for their outstanding classwork.

X31 Admiral ‘Being Human’- Maths

Kirsty Barnes

X31 Admiral used their knowledge of ratio to sketch themselves in the style of the Vitruvian Man after measuring their heads and bodies. They also discussed how this linked to their expedition and how we can further improve their sketches throughout the topic of proportion and scale.

The whole class showed amazing teamwork, integrity, respect and craftsmanship and quality in their work.

X32- Crew ABT

Asa Booth

X32 Crew ABT have been looking at “Identity” on Wise Wednesday and unpicking what makes us who we are and to Respect each and everyone’s individuality.

As a Crew, It was great to see the students talk about their identity and be proud of who they are and that they feel confident to share this information with their Crew family and feel safe in doing so.

C28 Staff Crew!

Fay Mountain

C28’s staff spent an hour on a lovely sunny staff day being stewards of our community by doing a litter pick around lakeside. We always say what’s good for our students is good for us so we also cleared the car park area around the gate. To help us keep this area looking beautiful could parents please remind students to keep their rubbish in bags/pockets until they find a bin.

Thank you for your continued effort supporting our school.
