Northumbrian Water and One Day Creative delivered a fantastic interactive workshop to Year 5 on the Ripple Effect.

They worked in teams to problem solve and came up with great ideas for saving water!

French Club 2022 – 19.7.22 |
Dear parents/carers of pupils in KS2,
Across the year, Miss Beattie has hosted several KS2 French parties. Children were invited along as they had been working really hard in French lessons. Children had the opportunity to indulge in some French cuisine including: french fries, pain au chocolat, croissant, crepes, baguette, brie and lots of them even tried snails!!!
Everyone had an excellent time and Mademoiselle Beattie is already planning ahead for next year!
Have a little watch of our video…who can you spot?

Transition to Year 3
Here you can find our useful information booklet about Transition to Year 3. Click the link below.
KS2 had a fantastic time competing in their Houses on Sports Day. Each class took part in 12 different sporting games amassing points as the morning progressed.
Well done to 16 of our year 3 and 4 pupils, who represented our school at the South Tyneside School Sport Network Y3/4 Countdown Cricket Festival 2022.
We took a Y3 team and a Y4 team, both were very strong on the day!
The Y3 team won three out of four of their matches. Y4 won all four of their matches.
The overall winner for the tournament was our Y4 team with a huge 394 runs over the four matches on the day.
Lots of talented cricketers in both teams, who we hope may go on to represent our school in years to come. As always our pupils were fantastic ambassadors for our school and displayed fantastic sportsmanship and manners.
Well done!

KS2 Success! – 17.5.22 |
Dear all,
Monday morning’s assembly focused on celebrating the many achievements of our lovely KS2 children. We started by giving out certificates to the children who had entered the national ‘If I Were an Engineer’ competition. All children who entered achieved either passes, merits or distinctions and some were even shortlisted winners with distinction: well done to our budding engineers! A special Congratulations to Harriet and Ibrahim, both from Mr Douglas’s class, who have been chosen as the North East Y3 winners and have been invited to an awards ceremony on Monday 23rd May at the Discovery Museum! Congratulations to our Reading Champions! These KS2 children were nominated by their teachers for their exceptional effort in reading recently. One of our lucky nominees had their name picked out of a hat and is taking home a £10 voucher to spend on books of their choice. A huge well done to you all! Finally, Eva – from Miss Anderson’s class – showcased her dancing medals and trophies after being awarded First Place in the NCDTA North East Juvenile Tap Championship. What a fantastic achievement! Well done everyone!
