We are absolutely delighted that Hajrah from 6H has had a painting excepted for the Young Artists’ Summer Show in London. Her artwork was judged by a panel of passionate artists and arts professionals. They selected her piece for display online and on-site at the Royal Academy of Arts
A fantastic artistic achievement Hajrah. Congratulations.
The Year 5/6 swimming team took part in the Sunderland School Swimming Finals. Well done to all of our children who swam brilliantly and showed great determination. Special mention to the boys who made the grand final of the medley relay race. Our children were superb ambassadors for our school with thanks to Mr Spoors for all he did to organise the children.
Thank you Mr Spoors!
Year one visited Durham Castle on the 16th May (1CW) and Tuesday 17th May (1S). They all had a great time exploring the castle and finding out about its features. Some of the children dressed up as the kings and bishops connected to the castle history. In the afternoon the children made their own cardboard models of castles and were challenged to make a strong castle wall that the teachers tried to knock it down!
A fun and educational day out.
We will be celebrating the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee in school on Tuesday 24th May. The children will spend the day learning about why we are celebrating the Jubilee, alongside preparing for our afternoon picnic!
We would love to have parents / carers join us on the school field for a Jubilee picnic from 2-3pm. Also, to give you some notice, we will be asking the children to wear red, white or blue clothes on the day or non-uniform so please do not feel you need to buy anything extra. We hope lots of you can come along to celebrate with us!
In this weeks Friday Flyer we have news about our upcoming Platinum Jubilee Celebrations, news from our football teams, trips the children have made this week away from school, upcoming dates for your diaries and much more. Happy reading!
Year 5 enjoyed a visit out of school on Monday morning to Safetyworks in Newcastle. The children improved their knowledge in making informed life choices, where they needed to recognise key risks and dangers, and gain confidence to take actions which will reduce the risks to themselves and others. They enjoyed activities based on home safety, fire safety, road safety, internet safety and many more.
Well done Year 5!
