To celebrate the Feast of Saint Bede, some of our wonderful Year 5 and 6 children wrote and led an assembly all about our patron saint. The children did a fantastic job of researching key facts and writing their own script. They also collectively wrote a prayer to St Bede which they shared with everyone, alongside some beautiful artwork inspired by El Salvador crosses.
Year 5 – Hoops 4 Health
The children in Year 5 enjoyed an amazing afternoon with some Newcastle Eagles players.
The Hoops 4 Health roadshow concentrated on health messages such as mental and social well-being, how to stay fit and look after the heart and lungs, stay hydrated with tap water and eating a balanced diet. The children also had the opportunity to take part in some basketball activities with the Eagles players!
The children were fantastic at answering the players’ questions and taking part in the activities.
Well done everyone!
Year 5 DT – Star Bakers!
Year 5 showed off their baking skill in DT recently. We had a lovely (and rather messy) morning mixing batches of bread dough then adding our chosen additional ingredients. After the dough had risen, we shaped our bread into rolls following the designs we’d chosen to use. Finally, we tasted and evaluated our bread rolls once they had been baked.
Good job, Year 5!
Easter 2024
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.
World Book Day and Competition Winners
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.
Year 5 Open Zone visit
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.
