Date: 30th Mar 2021 @ 2:46pm
We were delighted to welcome our Vicar, Ron to our school today. Ron held a special Easter Assembly for each of our Key Stage bubbles in accordance with the current DfE guidelines for collective worship in school. Unfortuantely therefore, we were unable to sing a hymn or Easter song, but we promised that as soon as we were able to we would!

Highly acclaimed, local artist, Wynne Roberts worked with all the children in school to design and produce a piece of work that would reflect the ethos of our school. All of our children, in all of our classes, took part in the project and painted the colourful designs. Everyone had a great time creating the artwork and Wynne was overwhelmed with the enthusiasm and passion of the children. We are thrilled with the results and think they echo perfectly what our school is all about - we hope you like them too!
Pleae pop in to our reception area and take a look, if you have not done so already!

On Tuesday 2nd June class 2 had a very exciting day at the World Museum in Liverpool. The children got the train from Acton Bridge station to Liverpool Lime Street station; some of the children had not been on a train before and so were very excited and nervous at the same time! At the museum the children learned about ancient Egypt and took turns to pop their heads through a Tutankhamun cut out. They dressed up as anglo-saxons and explored animals, from mini-beasts to dinosaurs, in their natural envirnoments. The also children enjoyed a special visit to the planetarium during their visit.
Before the children left Liverpool, they had time to have a tea time treat at a nearby hotel . Then, it was back to the station for the train journey home.
Mrs Harris and Mrs Martin were extremely proud of the way in which the children conducted themselves throughout the whole day; their excellent behaviour was praised and noted by members of museum staff. Well done Class 2!

The pupils at Crowton Primary School had a fantastic time celebrating World Book day 2015 on 6th March. The children came to school dressed up as their favourite book character; there were some really great costumes and ideas!
Rachael Lindsay, a children's author, visited our school and ran literacy workshops for all classes. The children met the troll's from her stories and learned about their characters. They explored the story of 'Warrior Troll' and imagined the contents of the casket. Rachael spoke to the children about creating characters and settings for stories.
KS2 children learned about the writing process and planning of a book. They collected a' villainous word bank' to help them describe a villains appearance, movement and speech.

There was plenty of excitement as the children arrived to a snow covered school field on Friday 30th January. Those who wanted to were allowed to play out for a while, to make snowmen and have fun, before the snow melted.
'Danger at St. Magnets' Kinetic Theatre Workshop
Date: 29th Jan 2015 @ 9:21am
On Wednesday 28th January all the children took part in a fun and engaging, inter-active science show performed by the Kinetic Theatre company. The show, entitled, Danger at St. Magnets,’ focused on the Classification of materials, magnetism and heat sections of the National Curriculum for Science. During the show the children were encouraged to recognise a variety of materials and sort them into groups of natural and man-made. Properties (appearances, hardness, magnetic, non-magnetic), reasons for selecting materials and the concept of heat travelling from hot to cold was demonstrated throughout. KS2 children learned about thermal expansion with a demonstration of the bimetallic strip.Magnetism was also illustrated with an electromagnet.
The story of the show : set in 1946, in the staff room of St Magnet's Primary School in the sleepy village of Upper Copperbottom. the distinguished headmaster has been asked to judge the village marrow competition when the school cook notices the boiler is on the blink. Could there be a fault with the bimetallic strip in the thermostat? Or are any other materials involved? Furthermore why is there a magnet in the stockroom? Who has stolen the prized silver trophy? and what is the music teacher doing in the village church belfry? It transpires that treachery is afoot and the saboteur wants to destroy the school! If the boiler isn't fixed quickly there is a serious threat of explosion!

On Tuesday 16th December the children in Year 2 held a Christmas Cafe in the school hall. To prepare for the event the children planned menu's, priced items, shopped on-line for groceries, decorated cakes and biscuits and made table decorations. On teh day they took on the roles of waiters and waitresses taking orders, calculating the bill and giving the right change. They provided entertainment, singing and performing to their customers. Parents, Governors and family members attended and the response was fantastic! The children made a profit of £20 which they decided they would like to donate to Alder Hey Children's Hospital in memory of Skye.

Humph the Camel shows not the slightest interest in anything. He has but one word to say to the world........HUMPH! Much to everyone's surprise and delight, when he meets the newborn King he just can't contain his excitement and joy.
Classes 1 and 2 performed their version of the Christmas musical, 'Humph the Camel' before a packed audience of parents, family and friends. They performed and sang beautifully as they recreated their special version of the Christmas story. Well done to everyone involved!
