Osprey Class- Meet the rest of your new teaching team!

Mrs Swash will be working with you in class with Miss Marshall.


Hello all I am Mrs Swash.  I have lived in Carlton all of my life and attended the same school as you do!

When I am not at school I try to keep fit .  I dabble in a bit of jogging, go cycling around near home or further away in the Dales where it really tests your legs.  Swimming is top on my list though.  I am truly missing it  during lock-down,  as all the swimming pools are closed,  so I have decided to take the plunge and attempt it outdoors in a lake.  The only thing that is worrying me is the fish!  I will let you all know how I get on when we return in September.  Also I love to crochet, draw, paint, bake, listen to music and dance. Spending time with my family is really important to me too. During the summer months we bar-be-que together  or go for long walks and  in the winter months we have pie club, the strange thing is I am generally the host.  Quiet time for me is when I read a good book . I really enjoy autobiographies or history based stories.

It has been quite odd not seeing all your lovely smiling faces at school.   I am really pleased I am your class TA and I also get to work with Miss Marshall , who is a brilliant teacher and so much fun. 

I can't wait to see you all again in September, I bet you are all getting so tall now.  Have a busy fun filled safe time over the holidays.  See you soon!

Mrs Mack will be in class one afternoon per week.


Hello everyone. I am Mrs Mackintosh (or for short Mrs Mack) I am really looking forward to seeing you all and being your HLTA & Teaching Assistant in September!

I know it may feel a little strange to be back in school but don’t worry, we will work as a team to support one another and get through it.

As some of you know, I teach french and art  in school but did you know I love to bake?!

Baking is my preferred pastime at the moment. I bake a variety of cakes and cheesecakes, which the staff and children throughout school will say are quite delicious!
Especially the staff as they are my cake tasters! I’m sure they don’t mind!
I even entered my first competition, the Carlton Fete Bake Off 2020!
I came 1st!
Always have a go, you could surprise yourself - anything is possible!

What is your favourite cake and why?

My love of art began when I was a young child myself and it has grown throughout my adult life. It will be a pleasure to help guide, support and inspire your artistic visions.

Once again, I’m really looking forward to seeing you all in September, keep safe and well.

Kestrel Class- Meet the rest of your new teaching team!


Hello everyone,
My name is Lyn Stones.  I am really looking forward to working with Mrs Burton and Mrs Pemberton in Kestrel Class this coming September.  Times are different, but don't worry, we are all here for each and everyone of you.

I have worked at Carlton School over 20 years and my daughters Sarah and Ruth were pupils here too.  They are both primary school teachers.

Walking in the Lake District is one of the things I like doing best.  I also like to bake at home and in school.

I am looking forward to seeing you in September, happy times ahead.

Love Mrs Stones

Hello, my name is Mrs Pemberton,  I will be working with Mrs Burton in September.
I can't wait to see all your smiley faces in school in our classroom. 

I have been working as a teaching assistant at Carlton in Snaith Primary school for 9 years. I love my job helping children in our school, in the classroom and at lunch times in the playground. I am terrible at remembering children's names, so am hoping you will help me remember yours in September. 😊

When I am not at work, I love to spend lots of time outdoors. I love walking my dog Lily - we enjoy the countryside around Carlton, as well as long walks in the Yorkshire Dales. My family and I also love the seaside. I love to eat fish and chips and love walking the beach. Do you like the seaside?

I also like to play tennis. I have played since I was 14 years old. I play in two tennis teams and help children to play the game. I have made lots of friends playing sport, and enjoy keeping fit. 

I have an old car that I enjoy driving. My car doesn't go very fast and she isn't sporty, but I love her very much. 

I love to travel on holiday with my family. My favourite places to visit are Majorca, France and The Yorkshire Dales. I love collecting fossils and sea shells on the beach.  Maybe you could collect some shells if you go to the seaside? 

Have a lovely summer holiday.
I can't wait to see you in September 

Mrs Pemberton.

Summer Half Term 2 Week 7


Complete your All About Me writing and send it to your new teacher

⭐Talk to someone at home about all the questions you have about when you return to school next year. Now see if anyone at home can answer any of them. Next write up the questions (using a ? at the end) and you can either email them or bring them to school in September so your teacher can try to answer them in your first week back.

⭐Can you make up a story and use either your new teacher or your school friends as the main characters? First plan out what will happen at the beginning, middle and end (Story Mountain), then explain this to someone at home, finally write the story up.

Well done Freya, Harry, Max, Jay, Reuben and Charlie for your contributions!

Future Kestrel Class- A message from your future teacher

All About Me

Hello, I'm Mrs Burton and I'm really excited about being your new teacher in September. I know it may feel a bit funny as some of you haven't been in school for what seems like ages but I promise we'll get through it together and whatever you are finding tricky I'll help you to make it easier.

This will be my third year at Carlton, just like you! Before working in Carlton I used to work in a school in Leeds and before that a school in London. I used to live in Carlton but now I live in Brayton. My daughter is Annie, do you know her? She is in Year 5 at the moment. When I'm not at school or working, I love to read, my favourite children's book is 'The True Story of the Three Little Pigs' because its funny and a bit cheeky. What is your favourite book? I also love to go to the theatre and watch musicals. I love singing along. I also love football and my favourite team is Leeds United. When I'm not at school, I spend a lot of time walking my dog. She's called Sally and she is a black miniature poodle. If I go on holiday I love going to the Lake District or somewhere warm like Spain or one of the Greek Islands. Where is your favourite place to go?
Since we haven't been able to have our move up mornings, could you write and tell me all about you and maybe draw a picture of yourself too? It will help me to get to know you and if someone at home wants to write and tell me anything else about you too they can. You could either email it to me (mrsburton2020@carlton-in-snaith.n-yorks.sch.uk) or post it/drop it off at school.
 I can't wait to see you all together in September. 
Until then keep safe and please write and tell me all about you soon.

Future Osprey Class- a message from your future teacher!

Hello my name is Miss Marshall. I am super excited to be teaching year 3/4 again next year.
It’s been a long time since we’ve all been in school so it might be a bit tricky at first and you might be worried about some things but don’t worry we will get through all of the tricky things together as a team ðŸ˜Š  This is my second year at Carlton so I’m still pretty new around here and I might not know all of your names but I’m sure that you will help me to learn them really quickly. I love to have fun whilst we are learning, so be prepared for lots of fun and laughter over the next year ðŸ˜Š
When I’m not having fun at school I like to explore the outdoors and go on adventures with my dog ‘Biscuit’, you’ll hear all about these next year. When I’m not exploring England with my dog, I like to explore different countries, my favourite place to explore is Italy because I think it has some extremely beautiful buildings.

I also like to listen to music and exercise, sometimes at the same time. I love to go for runs too, normally with my favourite Disney songs on and my pal ‘Biscuit’ by my side. I also like to watch lots of sports too, especially my favourite football team Sheffield Wednesday.
What is your favourite sport?


I’m sure we will learn lots about each other over the next year but for now I was wondering if you could write and tell me all about you and maybe draw a picture of yourself too. This will help me get to know you before September.
When you have finished it either email it to me (missmarshall2020@carlton-in-snaith.n-yorks.sch.uk) or post it/ drop it off at school.
I can’t wait to meet you all properly in September. ðŸ˜Š
For now, have a fantastic summer holiday and I can’t wait to read all about you really soon. ðŸ˜Š

Miss Marshall
