Thirty Y3/4 athletes had a wonderful time competing in the District Athletics Championships at Monkton Stadium; while we have also just found out that our A Team are District Champions – a great achievement considering there were 47 teams taking part!
All of our children had a great attitude in training and everyone aimed for personal best performances in the finals. Once again, the support throughout the squad for each other was so positive and up lifting- well done everyone!
The A team will now go on to represent South Tyneside in the County Finals on Friday 21st June at Monkton Stadium. They will compete against the best athletes from Newcastle, North Tyneside, Sunderland and Gateshead.
It was great to see so much support for St. Bede’s from our school community inside the stadium, which really helped inspire our teams.
Congratulations to our whole squad on a great day’s athletics and good luck to our A team in the County Finals!
First Holy Communion Day
Some of our Year 4 children made their first Holy Communion this morning. It was a wonderful Mass – the Catechists had prepared the children well, the church was filled with families and friends, the children read beautifully and looked amazing! Everyone was so proud of them!
After Mass, the children made their way to the church hall which had been decorated with beautiful artwork, prayers and cards made by their St Bede’s family. The children then tucked into their First Holy Communion breakfast and continued the celebrations at home with their families.

Y3 Outdoor Adventurers!
Y3 today enjoyed orienteering around South Marine Park by using their mapwork skills. They navigated around the park in teams to find letters and numbers which helped them to solve a variety of puzzles. During the course, they also embarked on several problem solving activities, where they had to use communication and teamwork skills. The children were all fantastic and really embraced the challenges in a wonderful event!
