Today we had a surprise visit from the Easter bunny! He also delivered gifts to all the school! Thank you to our PTFA for organising and funding the gifts and visit.
We hope all our families have a lovely Easter break.
With Christ at our side to guide us,
we shine in all that we do.

We had a lovely time celebrating World Book Day in school last week! It was a joy to see pupils’ wonderful costumes and hear them talking so enthusiastically about their favourite book characters. We were inundated with lots of amazing entries for our paper plate competition and it was extremely difficult to choose some lucky prize winners. The entries were so brilliant that we have displayed them in our school library area for everyone to enjoy.

A big ‘thank you’ to everyone who came along to our book fair in school this week. With the support of pupils’ families, we now have £490 of Scholastic rewards points to spend on books for school. We are compiling a list of book requests so this money will be a great help.
We were also lucky enough to have some extra special helpers organising the event this time. Thank you Reading Ambassadors – you did an amazing job!

Year 5 recently visited South Shields town centre as part of their work on settlements. Their fieldwork included comparing how some areas of the town were in the past to how they are now. Year 5 carefully completed some sensory mapping and will use this in their topic work back in school. Well done, Year 5!

This annual event aims to be a joyful celebration of the power of sharing stories. The children marked the occasion in their house meetings where they created their own stories together using picture cards for inspiration. They worked so well together and conjured some very imaginative stories! Pupils then shared some picture books together in their family groups.

Year 5 invited Father Bill into class this week to talk about the sacrament of marriage. We have been considering the big question “Is commitment important?” as part of our RE work.
We discussed the meaning of commitment and Father Bill explained the details of a marriage ceremony, including the promises made, the blessing of the rings and the nuptial blessing. We also discussed our favourite hymns and readings that might be used.
