A Jubilee Celebration in Reception
Reception have had such a special day today celebrating the Queen’s Jubilee! They came to school wearing red, white and blue, made flags, crowns and even took part in a corgi treasure hunt! This afternoon they sang a song from the 60’s in front of the whole school and enjoyed a picnic and a party. What a brilliant day we have had!
Y3/4 South Tyneside Athletics
Three St. Bede’s teams enjoyed competing at Monkton Stadium in the South Tyneside Athletics competition today! There were lots of excellent personal best performances with our A team finishing 4th, agonisingly just outside the medals despite their very best efforts. The B team came a highly creditable 7th too in a brilliant event, that was keenly contested by the 21 teams involved.
I was very proud to see everyone pushing themselves and supporting each other with lots of positive energy; so everyone should be pleased with their performances. Many of our Y4’s will take part in the Y5/6 athletics next year, while our youthful Y3’s who heavily featured today should feel confident when competing in the same Y3/4 event next year.
Finally, thank you to all of the children for keenly attending training and our brilliant parent helpers who supported our children so enthusiastically and considerately throughout.
Red Box Project
St Bede’s has joined the fight to end ‘period poverty’ for schoolgirls. Figures show that 48 per cent of UK girls struggle to pay for their sanitary products. Here at St Bede’s we are involved in The Red Box Project; an initiative that quietly ensures that no young woman misses out on her education because of her period.
Sanitary provisions are available to all students from Mrs Welsh and bins provided in the Year 5/6 toilets.
If your child has any questions regarding this please speak to Mrs Welsh.
Y3 District Tennis Champions!
Our two Y3 tennis teams had a lot of fun taking part in tennis matches and skills challenges at Boldon Tennis Club today! The A team amassed an incredible 19 out of 20 possible team points and qualified for the County Finals at Silksworth in June. It was wonderful to see the children enjoying the day by doing their best and supporting each other every step of the way!
Year 2’s trip to the OpenZone @ The Word
On Friday Year 2 enjoyed a trip to the OpenZone @ The Word. The children began by using the laptops to follow step by step instructions to build lego models. They then got to programme their models to rotate, make sounds and move with a motion sensor.
In the afternoon the children used Purplemash to create their own pairs games. They inputted images, drew their own card designs and were eager to add text to their games. To end the day they enjoyed trying out each other’s pair games. Their games can be played following the link below.

Year 5’s recital of ‘Jabberwocky’
Click the image above to see Year 5’s performance of ‘Jabberwocky’ by Lewis Carroll. We have been using the poem as a focus text to explore poetic conventions and inspire us to write our very own nonsense poems with portmanteau words. The children then formed groups to create and rehearse actions to perform the original poem as a class. We hope you enjoy it!
Year 2’s Vehicles
Today Year 2 created vehicles as part of their Design and Technology unit, wheels and axles. The children used their designs from the previous lesson to create their wonderful vehicles. They used a range of tools to cut wooden axles and used washers to secure each wheel. They explored a range of materials to help make their vehicles stronger and more stable. To finish the children used lots of crafts to finish and embellish their vehicles, using bottle tops for lids and seats! Here are some pictures of the children in action and also their final products.
Year 6 Samba
Year 6 have had lots of fun learning samba in PE this half term, they have shown lots of energy and enthusiasm and I think you’ll agree our final performances are excellent!
