As part of our topic of Water Everywhere, Yellow class went on the metro into South Shields and looked at the Tyne. They tried to find as many features of a river as possible.
Our senior pupils had a great time at their Christmas Party. DJ Spikey entertained us all with a mix of festive and chart hits.
Lots of fabulous jumpers around school. Everyone is feeling very festive!
Thank you to everyone who visited our Christmas Fair. Another fantastic turn out again this year.
Pupils and staff have worked so hard producing quality gifts and treats for everyone to buy.
Our tombola and raffle stall was as busy as ever and we even had a visit from Bergen the reindeer.
We raised over £2000 which is amazing.
Well done everyone!!
We were very excited to ask a local year 6 class, from St Oswald’s C of E primary school in Hebburn, to come in and join us for an afternoon. We started to build community links with this school last year, and are planning this to continue for this academic year.
Our pupils were amazing and welcomed the children into their classes, from Red 1 all the way up to post 16. St Oswald’s pupils had the opportunity to experience the sensory room, soft play, PE, art, messy play etc and they were all amazing at supporting and interacting with our pupils. They had time at the end of the session to play outside together and we can already see friendships starting to be made.
Well done everyone, we hope to welcome them back next term.
We raised over £250 for Children in Need!!
We could come to school dressed in our pj’s, non-uniform or Pudsey bear t shirts.
We came to school wearing odd socks for this years anti-bullying week!!
Across school we have been remembering those who risked their lives to protect our Country during the World Wars.
Classes across school produced some fantastic art work.
Some pupils brought in special medals and photographs of family members who served in the war to share with their class.
We planted poppy seeds and made our own garden of remembrance.
In our school assembly the focus was all about why Remembrance day is very special.
We celebrated Mental Health Day yesterday by wearing yellow for school. Pupils across the school took part in a range of activities linked to feelings and emotions.
Our school council organised a special morning snack for the whole school. We could choose from a delicious selection of scones, crumpets, pancakes and croissants, washed down by a milkshake.
We asked everyone in school to donate food items to help those less fortunate in our local area.
Blue Class 1 collected in the donations and we have a fantastic 251 food items that will be delivered by a group of our pupils to Hebburn Helps.
