Last week, the children enjoyed their final St Bede’s school trip to Broomhouse Farm Forest Adventure in Durham.
Despite the miserable, damp weather, the children had a great time….as you can tell!!
Year 6 Production ‘Pirates of the Curry Bean’
The Year 6 Children performed on stage for their Year 6 Leavers’ Production: Pirates of the Curry Bean
All of the children worked extremely hard to learn their lines, stage directions, songs and dance moves and they performed brilliantly. We have some exceptional talented actors and singers
in Year 6!
The choir which included children from Years 3, 4 and 5 played a crucial part in the play also and sand beautifully.
No photographs were taken during the performance but I made sure I took a photo of the children on stage in their amazing costumes.
Year 6 Leavers’ Disco
On Monday evening, the children in Year 6 enjoyed their Leavers’ Disco.
George from Lil Devil DJ Entertainment certainly kept them entertained with the music and games and the PTFA treat the children to a McDonald’s.
The children (and staff) had a fantastic night!
I didn’t know so many of my class knew how to bust a move on the dance floor!!
Enjoy the photos!
Year 6 D-Day 80 Poetry
6th June 2024 marked 80 years since D-Day, the largest seaborne invasion in history, and the beginning of the liberation of Western Europe. To mark this anniversary, Year 6 wrote some wonderfully descriptive poems entitled ‘Ten Things in a Soldier’s Pocket’ and created some artwork of the Normandy landings using oil pastels. Brilliant work, Year 6!
Feast of St Bede
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.
St Vincent de Paul Summer Camps 2024 at Holy Island
The St Vincent de Paul (SVP) Society has some availability for children in Years 5 and 6 to attend their annual summer camp at Holy Island. The camp has been running on Holy Island for approximately 70 years. While weeks 1 and 2 are now full, there are places for weeks 3, 5 and 6 of the upcoming summer break. It will be a fantastic experience – some of our teachers even attended the camp when they were in school!

Application forms can be made using the above link, however, if you have any further queries, please contact SVP directly or speak to Mrs Kennedy when in school.
Year 6 Parent Workshop
Today, Niamh Jones, from Lifecycle Service delivered a worry workshop for our Year 6 children and their families. We discussed the different types of worries we may have and she gave us strategies to deal with them. Thank you to Niamh and our parents for their support.
Year 6 DT – Vegetable Curry
As part of our DT unit, we have looked at and evaluated the packaging of different curry sauces.
We looked through the common ingredient lists of curry sauces and identified ingredients that can cause allergies.
The children then voted which ingredients they wanted to include in their own vegetable curry.
They chose: onions, peppers, potatoes, cauliflower, garlic and tomatoes.
The children then peeled, chopped and diced the ingredients and mixed together with the dry spices and other ingredients and we slow cooked the curry.
In the afternoon, the children tasted their curry (along with some poppadoms) and evaluated their curry.
“10 out of 10” said a few children. “I wish there was some left so I could take it home!”
Safe to say, it was a huge success!
Year 6 OpenZone
The children visited the OpenZone at The Word to complete part of their ‘Programming and Sensing’ Unit.
The children enjoyed their morning out and their behaviour was impeccable.
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!
