After reading scripture, Year 3 have been working in drama groups to freeze frame how we should live out the gospel values in our school community. They explored sharing, friendship, conflict resolution, turn-taking and did a great job together!
Our Wonderful New Juniors!
Well done to our lovely Y3 children who have shown a lot of courage in not only moving to a new class, but also a new Key Stage in the juniors. They have settled in to their new class really well and are all enjoying their learning with their friends.
Year 3 Library Visit
Y3 Outdoor Adventurers!
Y3 today enjoyed orienteering around South Marine Park by using their mapwork skills. They navigated around the park in teams to find letters and numbers which helped them to solve a variety of puzzles. During the course, they also embarked on several problem solving activities, where they had to use communication and teamwork skills. The children were all fantastic and really embraced the challenges in a wonderful event!
Y3 Botanists Dissecting Flowers!
Our young botanists in Y3 have been eagerly dissecting the different parts of a flower. The children have been investigating the functions of the petals, stamen, carpel and sepals. They discovered that tulips, roses and alstroemerias had more petals than sepals. As we move through Spring, I’m sure they’ll be identifying all of beautiful flowers growing in our local area!
Mini Vinnies’ Coffee Morning at St Bede’s Church
The Mini Vinnies hosted a coffee morning today after Palm Sunday Mass.
There was a Tombola stall, a delicious Cale Sale and the Mini Vinnies sold bookmarks they’d made as well as Stations of the Cross booklets in which they’d produced the beautiful artwork.
The Mini Vinnies were brilliant and the morning was a huge success – they raised £166.57 for the St Vincent de Paul Society.
Everyone had a fantastic day! Well done Mini Vinnies and a big thank you to the parents and staff who supported the event too!
Y3 Fruit Crumble
This term Year 3 have been learning how to make a fruit crumble! They have investigated seasonal fruits, carbon footprints and food packaging, then learned how to design and make a crumble; including cooking techniques and food hygiene. They have worked really hard in DT and our final products were excellent, we hope you all enjoyed tasting them at home!
Stations of the Cross – Years 3 and 4
Years 3 and 4 led the Stations of the Cross at St Bede’s Church today together with their families and parishioners.
It was a lovely service and the children read beautifully, allowing us time to think about the Passion of Christ and reflect on Jesus’ love for us and the sacrifice He made for us.
Our readers:
CAFOD Family Fast Day
On Friday 23rd February it was CAFOD Family Fast Day. St Bede’s families showed their commitment to helping people in the local community and further afield, by generously supporting our Lenten appeal to help us help those less fortunate than ourselves.
Children donated tins of food to the Key to Life Foodbank (an operation providing emergency food and support to people in crisis across South Tyneside) as well as donating money to CAFOD (Catholic Aid for Overseas Development), one of the largest networks in the world, helping some of the poorest and marginalised people in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East.
We collected over £50 in monetary donations and a wealth of food products for the Key to Life Foodbank. As you can see by the photographs of our Mini Vinnies with our food donations, together we make a huge difference!
Y3 Egyptologists!
Today Durham University brought Ancient Egypt alive in our Y3 classroom!
The children became Egyptologists, as they used their historical enquiry skills to form theories about what ancient artefacts were used for thousands of years ago. We also made creative amulets from clay, explored mummies and took part in a drama weighing of the heart ceremony in a fun packed day!
