Worry Monster

By

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

Footsteps into Paradise Musical at Durham Cathedral

By

Last week 12 Key Stage 2 children took park in a musical performance called, ‘Footsteps into Paradise’ in Durham Cathedral. The performance was an immersive musical and art experience, celebrating our togetherness as a Trust, enabling the children to explore their identity and spirit of community. Some themes of the show included; respect, belief, reality of war, remembrance, empathy, acceptance, equality and kindness. The children put so much effort into the rehearsals and sang so beautifully on the night.

Year 6 Residential

We had a fantastic time at Emmaus Youth Village. During our time there we learnt different forms of prayer including sign language, singing and dancing.

We spent a lot of time outside with our friends and enjoyed an ice-cream at the local park.

All the children behaved impeccably and were a delight to spend time with!

 

Post SATs Celebrations!

By

Year 6 have worked extremely hard this term and we have been very proud of the mature and determined attitude they have shown in their SATs.

The last few weeks of half term were a little more relaxed and we enjoyed some fun activities in class, a trip to the park and our jubilee celebrations.

We’re all now looking forward to next half term which will include our Y6 production Ali Babba and the Bongo Bandits, our leavers assembly and lots of transition activities to prepare us for secondary school.

 

Red Box Project

By

St Bede’s has joined the fight to end ‘period poverty’ for schoolgirls. Figures show that 48 per cent of UK girls struggle to pay for their sanitary products. Here at St Bede’s we are involved in The Red Box Project; an initiative that quietly ensures that no young woman misses out on her education because of her period.

Sanitary provisions are available to all students from Mrs Welsh and bins provided in the Year 5/6 toilets.

If your child has any questions regarding this please speak to Mrs Welsh.
