Well done Year Four for your amazing class assembly on ‘Wilderness School’.
Today Year 4 took part in a sponsored basketball event.
The children were split into teams for the day. Some were trying to see how many hoops they could score while the other teams enjoyed a match. They groups then swapped over.
Everyone had a great time for a good cause!
Today for our sponsored event Year 3 had a biscuit bake off. They had to make as many biscuits as possible in a day. We all worked really hard and the children really impressed me with their cooking skills!
In total we made 166 biscuits which have been donated to The People’s Kitchen in Newcastle. A huge well done!
Today Year Six visited the Urban Factory in Hebburn. They took part in ‘warm-up’ Parkour and gymnastics – and never stopped.
We all had a fun and exhausting day. Thank you!
Here are some examples of what we got up to.
Following their hard work in the run up to Sats, Year Six began their Activities Week with a day at Gibside Estate and what an active day it was! Here are some pictures of what they got up to.
Here are the songs for Year 6 to listen ready for their performance.
Year Six have had a busy week taking their Sats.
The class have worked hard with Mrs Watson, Mrs Maddison and Mr O’Brien, supported by Mrs Small and staff from the school to prepare for these important benchmark tests.
During the week, our cook John has prepared some lovely cooked breakfasts for the children each day to help set them up for their tests- ‘an army marches on it’s stomach’. Thank you John.
What better way to finish the week with a French breakfast or ‘Petit dejeuner’.
‘The Pattisserie’, owned by Mrs Lee, did not disappoint us and the children enthusiastically tucked into croissants, pain au chocolat, pain au raisin, tresses, banana and maple syrup bread, fresh fruit, jams, chocolate, caramel and maple sauces. The children also had juice and Chocolat Chaud (Hot Chocolate) to accompany their breakfast.
Every piece of food was eaten and there was no waste at all – Year Six like their food- especially when it was a good at this .
The Nursery wanted to show how proud we were of Year 6 for such a fantastic effort this week. So we went up the corridor with a little treat.
Well done Year 6!
On Thursday the weather was drizzly and cold, so in the morning we stayed inside. Our class investigated seashore food chains and learned new key words. We created a mobile in class that showcased what we had learned about food chains.


The rain cleared up, so we walked to the beach and hunted for seashore creatures and plants. We created a tally so that we could remember all of the different types of seaweed we had identified in the rock pools.
After that, we created statues using the flattest rocks that we could find.


On our way home, we had some spare time so played in Laura’s Park for 5 minutes. We all had a lovely day!
Today Year 3 have had a fun filled day. To celebrate finishing our Europe topic we participated in different activities. First this morning we had our class assembly. Everyone spoke clearly and did brilliantly.
After our assembly, Year 3 had a great day exploring foods, flags and even making their own country as part of Europe Day. We made some delicious spaghetti bolognaise
We had a great day and I am very proud of every single child!
