Year 4 had a great sports day. It was lovely to see so many parents and carers come along to support their children.
On Tuesday 5th July, choir children visited the Sage in Gateshead to participate in the Big Sing. We worked hard to learn songs which had an eco friendly theme and performed these along with live music. We had a fantastic time!
Year 3 had a lovely sports day and it was great to see so many parents and carers come along to support their children.
On Friday 1st July, Year 4 children enjoyed learning more about the Ancient Egyptians. We found out more about Pharaohs and one of us dressed up as a Pharaoh. We learnt about the removal of the body parts once someone died and that these were placed in canopic jars. We enjoyed wrapping each other up in bandages like mummies and playing a game that the Ancient Egyptians would have played. We all had an amazing afternoon.
When I last spoke to pupils in our school, many of them said that their favourite lessons were the ones where they were able to write freely about anything they wanted. Therefore, we decided to hold a school writing competition where children were asked to write a mini saga – max 100 words about anything, in any genre. Some classes watched video clips that pupils could use as a stimulus if they were struggling to come up with ideas.
There was one winner chosen per class and all winners received a book.
Here are our winners:
Keevie Blackburn 3CL
Hannah Burden 3AE
Alex Coulson 4NW
Ella-May Grant 4NG
Sara Bainbridge 4KJ
