Annual Sponsor!

12th July 2019S Admin (Biddick Hall Juniors)

We took part in our annual Sports for Schools Sponsor. This is a fantastic initiative which allows us to invite athletes into schools and in doing so raise money for school sport equipment. This year, we were delighted to welcome Stuart Robinson, an Invictus Games Athlete, to Biddick Hall Junior School. We had great fun completing the exercise circuit and we were delighted to listen to Stuart explain to us his sport, Wheelchair Rugby. It was a fantastic afternoon and the children went away feeling very inspired.

A visit from the fireman in Year 6!

On 11th June year 6 had a visit from a fireman, he showed us different items that had at some point been in a fire and then he explained how the fire had started.  He explained ways in which we could try to prevent a fire starting and what to do if a fire started in our house.  It was very interesting and we learned a lot.

Glue Gun Art in Year 6!

13th June 2019S Admin (Biddick Hall Juniors)

We studied the inside of fruits and then drew a sketch of a fruit of our choice on fabric.  Then we used a glue gun to go over the lines.  Finally, we used printing ink and a paper towel to add colour to our picture.  We really enjoyed the lesson and are pleased with our finished work!

Year 6 Kwik Cricket!

24th May 2019S Admin (Biddick Hall Juniors)

On Monday 20th May, Year 6 took part in a ‘Kwik Kricket’ tournament at South Shields cricket grounds. It was the largest festival of its kind ever to be run with over 40 teams playing and competing.

Our school took 3 teams of 10 and played in different rounds against a variety of local primary schools from around the borough. Each team had 8 players in the match at one time. We enjoyed fielding and batting experiences but perhaps most of all the chance to work in teams together which allowed us to progress our cricket skills and grow in confidence throughout the day.

All teams played well and represented the school with sporting etiquette and skill. Teams C and B both won two matches and lost two, Team A won three matches and lost their final one by 5 points after a controversial interjection by another cricketer. Despite this, all players kept their heads held high and enjoyed a sunny day out playing cricket.
