Year 5 visited the Open Zone at The Word this week to take part in some computing activities. They successfully programmed microbits and worked very well with their partners to debug any errors in their coding. Well done, Year 5!
Thank you for supporting our book fair!
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 5/6 World Book Day
Year 5 Geography Fieldwork
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!
Exploring Islam in RE
In our RE lessons, we have been exploring Islam. We have particularly been learning about Hajj and Ramadan. Two of our friends kindly brought in some items from home to share with us all. It was wonderful to hear them talk so passionately about their faith.
Storytelling Week
This week is National Storytelling Week.
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.
When Santa visited St Bede’s
We had a surprise visitor in school recently! Father Christmas came to spread some festive cheer and even share some stories with the children. What a lovely day!
Father Bill’s visit to Year 5
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.
World Nursery Rhyme Week
The children in Nursery had great fun joining in activities for World Nursery Rhyme Week. They did a fantastic job of singing the rhymes and copying the actions.
Year 5 Dodgeball Event
This week, Year 5 attended a dodgeball event at Temple Park. All of the children tried very hard and worked brilliantly in their teams. Well done, Year 5!
