Y3/4 & Y5/6 Athletics County Final!

By

I was extremely proud to have both the Y3/4 and Y5/6 Athletics teams in the County Finals today. They enjoyed a colourful and artistic opening ceremony with some inspirational words from Daniel Dixon- a rising star in British Triathlon.

The children proudly wore their orange South Tyneside t-shirts and put in lots of personal best performances in a high quality competition. With lots of Y3 and Y5 children involved, the future looks very bright!

Finally, it was wonderful to see how they were cheered on by lots of parents, who made the journey to Silksworth. Well done to everyone involved for making this a great event!

Y3/4 Monkton Athletics!

By

Thirty children from Y3/4 had a great time at the District Athletics Competition at Monkton Stadium. Everyone took part in a 400m run, long jump, howler throw and 50m sprint.

Despite the unseasonable conditions, our athletes put in some fantastic performances and should all be very proud of themselves. It was wonderful to see everyone encourage and cheer on their friends throughout the day. Well done Team St. Bede’s!

Y3 Orienteering!

By

Y3 had a wonderful time orienteering at South Marine Park. The children worked in teams using maps to navigate around the park to find various clues. They also had to complete a variety of surprise challenges, which involved a lot collaborative problem solving. Despite being the youngest year group involved, the children showed a lot of skills to negotiate a challenging course.

And like all organised Outdoor and Adventurous groups, the children were well prepared for a hard earned break, as they enjoyed their packed lunches at lunchtime!

Y3 Tennis Gold & Silver!

By

Our two Y3 Tennis teams managed to scoop not only gold, but also silver medals in the Y3 Tennis Challenge event at Westoe Tennis Club. The St. Bede’s A Team will go on to represent South Tyneside in the County Finals on Thursday 20th June at the Sunderland Tennis Centre. Congratulations to both teams on their exceptional performances!

District Cricket Champions 2019

By

Today our two cricket teams took part in the biggest competition in the region, with 40 teams involved. The B team went unbeaten all day, coming joint top of their group at a sunny South Shields Cricket Club.

The A team were also in top form, and in an exciting finale they managed a record run chase to become South Tyneside Champions. They will proudly go on to represent the borough in the County Finals in Durham.

The children were a credit to the school, as they displayed the true ‘spirit of cricket’ throughout.

Lennox’s England Opportunity

Lennox Heslop enjoyed an England Talent ID Day at the Beacon of Light in Sunderland. He met an inspirational role model in England international George Ferguson (partially sighted) at the event. Lennox had a great time and scored plenty of goals on the new roof top pitch.

Our Y4 Quicksticks team represented South Tyneside in the County Finals today. The children played with their usual determination and put in lots of fantastic performances, just missing out on a semi-final spot.

Well done to all of the players and Miss Moffett who has trained the children for the event.
