Here are a few photos from this afternoon’s infant party.
Infant Nativity
The children form Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 performed in ‘A Miracle in Town’. All the children were brilliant as they sung, narrated and acted out the story of The Nativity. Well done infants, we are all very proud of you.
Year 2 Odd Sock Day
Today Year 2 celebrated Odd Sock Day to raise awareness of Anti-Bullying Week. We wore odd socks to demonstrate that we are all different and unique, which is great! This year’s theme was ‘Reach Out’ and we discussed who the children could talk to if something was making them upset. The children ended the day by designing their own odd socks whilst reading the book ‘Odd Socks’. Take a look at some of the jazzy socks the children wore!
Infant Monster Ball
The infant children had a very spooktacular night at the Monster Ball on Tuesday! Don’t they look scary?!

We hope to see you there!
World Mental Health Day
World Mental Health Day is Monday 10th October. The children will be having an assembly on The 5 Ways To Wellbeing. These are simple steps we all can take to improve our Mental Health and Well-being.
Worry Monster
We are currently in the process of setting up access to a ‘worry monster’ in each classroom. This is a place where they can write their name on a post-it note with any worry they may have and “feed” it to the worry monster. This can happen throughout the day and teaching staff regularly check the worry monsters, find a quiet place to talk to the child and address any worries that they might have. This is an opportunity for the children to share any worries and for us to try and help and offer support.
While the children are not at school, we are aware that they may still have worries or questions that they might want to share or ask. We want to be able to continue to offer this type of support as much as we can while we are currently not in school. So, we have now set up a dedicated email address. This is for the children to use. They can email us with any worries or questions they may have. Mrs Welsh, Mrs Devine and Mrs Mackley will all have access to the email service, so we will hopefully be able to address any worries.
The email address is ineedtotalk@st-bedes.s-tyneside.sch.uk
Year 2 at Hall Hill Farm
Year 2 have had a fantastic day at Hall Hill Farm. We started with a look at some of the animals on the farm and feed the llamas, alpacas, sheep and goats. The children then handled some of the smaller animals such as guinea pigs and rabbits.
We also enjoyed a very bumpy tractor ride around the farm and had the chance to handle some chicks and feed a lamb. We ended our fun filled day with some time in the play park. Year 2 were very well behaved today and Richard (our guide) was very impressed with our wealth of farm animal knowledge. What a fantastic end of year trip we have had!
Year 2’s trip to the OpenZone @ The Word
On Friday Year 2 enjoyed a trip to the OpenZone @ The Word. The children began by using the laptops to follow step by step instructions to build lego models. They then got to programme their models to rotate, make sounds and move with a motion sensor.
In the afternoon the children used Purplemash to create their own pairs games. They inputted images, drew their own card designs and were eager to add text to their games. To end the day they enjoyed trying out each other’s pair games. Their games can be played following the link below.
