Year 7 Spanish describing a house!

Author Profile
13 March 2024

realsmartadmin admin

Today Year 7 (E30) learned words and phrases to say what rooms they might find in a home. Students practised the language and then worked together to produce a description of a house in Spanish. Students used sentence builders and graphics to develop their writing. They also worked on building their character traits of respect and integrity by working well and showing kindness to one another in their groups. Some students challenged themselves by adding in negatives and plurals.¡ Buen trabajo!

Students of E29 were invited to attend a celebratory breakfast during crew time for the effort they have put into their recent Student Led Conferences.
As Crew Leaders we were really impressed with how far they all have come from last year. The dedication and improvement has not gone unnoticed. How could we not do something to show how proud we all are of them!

Expedition Stories: UKS2 @ Plover

This week we’re proud to share the beautiful story of UKS2s Expedition from last term ‘Earth Emergency’. The carefully designed planters and greenhouse will surely be a catalyst for Plover growing its own produce for generations to come!

Beautiful Curation at XP Doncaster

XP on the TV!

For anyone who missed it – XP Doncaster has been featured in a BBC Two documentary which aired on the 7th March. All episodes are available on BBC iPlayer now.

We’d like to thank everyone who has got in touch or left a comment about the programme – we are so proud of our students and how eloquently they expressed how they feel about their school.

If you’d like to learn more about our schools and how you can do what we do too, you can get a copy of our book How We XP here.

C30 Year 7 Fieldwork to the Doncaster Gurdwara

Author Profile
7 March 2024

B Batty

On Wednesday 20th March Year 7 XP East students will be taking part in fieldwork to the Doncaster Gurdwara. Followed by Year 7 XP students on Friday 22nd March.

This fieldwork has been planned to support their learning in humanities and the expedition ‘Do your bit’. It is a brilliant opportunity to bring the students’ learning to life in an exciting and engaging way. Students will find out more about Sikhism and the Gurdwara itself. The experience will be used to support learning back in the classroom to help the children better understand the content and develop a deeper understanding of the subject/expedition. 
We will depart school at 10am and our expected arrival time back at school is 12.30pm.

Students must bring a head scarf (we can provide scarves if students are struggling for one) and they must be wearing clean socks (they will be asked to remove their shoes).

The visit will be in the morning so lunch time will not be affected.

If you have any questions about the visit please get in touch with your child’s Crew Leader or myself by emailing [email protected]

Thanks Mrs Batty

FXP Tuck Shop

realsmartadmin admin

Thank you for your support of the first FXP tuck shop held this morning. Students and staff gathered at break to buy delicious treats, raising money for FXP. Today we raised £102 in just 15 minutes! All the money raised will be used for future XP projects, helping all of the schools of the XP Trust.

FXP are always on the look out for more volunteers and donations. In order to boost fundraising, we need more donations. For this event we received two. We appreciate all the help we received this time and wish to continue this moving forward, but we need your help so we can raise more. Look out for the FXP leaflet coming out soon with further details on how to support FXP. 

Our next tuck shop date is Thursday 25th April. But first we have Easter Hamper Day on Thursday 28th March. We look forward to seeing you there!

Friends of XP
