The girls had a great afternoon playing football last Thursday. Both teams played brilliantly with the A team winning both of their games. Well done girls!
Brian from the fire service gave year 5 a very useful presentation about the dangers of fire. The children listened attentively and asked sensible questions.
Lisa from Fruit to Suit came to introduce the Year 5 children to the roles involved in running the school’s tuck shop. The children now have the opportunity to apply for these jobs and Miss Anderson will be selecting her staff shortly.
Some of our Y5 children were able to experience a fencing lesson last week as part of taster to new sports in the curriculum. Our children took to it quickly, they listened attentively and applied the strong stance needed, the etiquette of the game and enjoyed learning some of the basic moves.
Great work Y5!
On Friday 7th July a group of 11 children and 2 members of staff took part in the North East Sandcastle Competition. Based on a theme of Northern Inventors, the children from Y4 created an image of a light bulb, invented by Joseph Swan. Although they didn’t win the competition, the children worked exceptionally hard as a team to create the design in the one hour time limit.
Last week Miss Anderson’s class designed, made and sold smoothies as part of the Virgin Money Make £5 Grow Project. This was a massive success and an overall profit of £160 was made which will go towards resources for the school.
Yr 4 had a fantastic day on Friday dressing up as Ancient Greeks. They designed Olympic torches, tasted a variety of Greek food and competed in Olympic Games.
