The Y3 Cross Country champions had an exciting morning doing the ‘Mobot’ and walking in the footprints of Sir Mo Farah, which have been installed at South Shields interchange. The children were invited by Nexus to promote the legendary Olympian and 6 times Great North Run champion’s footprints after their recent Cross Country success.
In true festive spirit the children were given a selection box for their cheery smiles; which you will be able to see on Tyne Tees News and the local press in the coming days.

Year 1 have been learning about Christingles, a symbolic representation of Christ’s light. The children carefully followed the instructions on how to make them and worked in teams to create them.
With oranges representing the world, red ribbons symbolising the blood of Christ, sweets and dried fruits signifying God’s creations, and a candle as the light of Christ, the children gained a deeper understanding of the religious meaning behind the Christingle tradition.
We then went into the hall and had a small liturgy where we lit the candles on the Christingles and said some special prayers.
