We warmly invite you to meet the new teachers who have joined our team in January. This will be a short meeting to put a name to a face and find out a little about your child’s new teacher. All three new teachers will be at the meeting.
Please let us know you will be attending by completing this quick form. https://forms.gle/a8XXWf2XGi1mgyUN7
We fully recognise that changing teachers mid way through the year is not perfect. However, we are extremely pleased to have Miss Souffi, Miss Shirlow and Miss Dowse join our school and we want to create a positive relationship with you the parents from the start.
Please enter via the the hall door entrance once the Reception teachers have dismissed all of the children. This entrance is next to the nursery.
We look forward to seeing you then!

We are very proud of our Y6 pupils, who have created Christmas cards and designed envelopes to spread seasonal wishes to the residents of Hebburn Court Home and Age UK. We hope they bring a touch of festive cheer to the recipients.
Well done to all of the pupils who entered the Science Bioartattack competition! Their entries have been submitted on the RSB website and you can see all of their fantastic designs here. Thank you for the huge amount of effort and support from home in completing them. After much deliberation, Thea was chosen as the school winner for her excellent design ‘We Want the Alive Half, Not the Dead’ (to show what happens when trees are cut down and habitats are destroyed).
