Year 4 visit ‘The Urban Factory.’

25th May 2022S Admin (Biddick Hall Juniors)

On Tuesday 16th May, a group of Year 4 children visited the Urban Factory in Hebburn. We took part in some great gymnastics activities such as tumbling, rolling, climbing, jumping and running. We even enjoyed trying parkour for the first time. We all had a fantastic afternoon!

Year 4 ‘Habitats.’

25th May 2022S Admin (Biddick Hall Juniors)

Within our Science lessons, Year 4 are currently studying ‘habitats’. We invited Katie, from Science Buddies, to come into our school and complete an experiment with us. We predicted the preference of a woodlouse’s habitat and then experimented to find out if they liked, dry, wet, light or dark environments. We had lots of fun and also met Einstein the Giant African snail and learned about his habitat.

Samba Drumming in Year 5

25th May 2022S Admin (Biddick Hall Juniors)

Year 5 are really enjoying their Samba Drumming lessons with Mr. Bird. We are learning to play some of the call and response drumming patterns synonymous with the Brazilian music, using the different samba drums.

Segedunum Roman Fort!

19th May 2022S Admin (Biddick Hall Juniors)

Year 3 had a great day at Segedunum Roman Fort. We trained to be Roman soldiers complete with shields and spears.  We marched in formation and got ready for battle.

We visited the site of the original Hadrian’s wall and completed a mock invasion from the wall using soft balls. This was very exciting.

We had a tour of the remains of the fort and learned all about the buildings and people.
