On 6th February, some of our choir children went to Durham Cathedral to take part in the KS2 North East Choir of the Year Competition. We sang our own version of ‘Wake Me Up’ by Avicci and we had an amazing time. Although, we didn’t place, Mrs Walls was very proud of our beautiful singing and our hard work!
On the 5th February the whole school took part in the sign2sing event. We practised singing and signing a song called ‘Greatest Day’ to raise awareness for the sign health charity. We also collected money to send to the sign health charity. We collected £114 for this worthy cause.
In year 6 we are learning about World War 2. We had a visit from ‘That History Bloke’ who told us lots about that time period and showed us many artefacts. We had great fun!
Year 6 had a fantastic opportunity to visit the Urban Factory in Hebburn where we took part in activities relating to cheerleading, gymnastics and parkour. We worked well together and had great fun.
Congratulations to 75 pupils who managed to achieve 100% in the Autumn Term. They each received a bronze certificate and wristband. Thank you to parents and carers for your continued support.
On Friday 11th January, 2 teams of Y5 children visited Temple Park to take part in Hoops4Health run by the Newcastle Eagles. Both teams played extremely well, with Biddick One winning 4, drawing 1 and losing 2 and Biddick Two winning 2, drawing 1 and losing 2. But, the standard of basketball was exceptional and we didn’t make it into the play-offs. Well done to everyone involved – excellent sportsmanship, determination and skill.
Year 4 took part in an amazing lego workshop. We built a lego city and then used electrical circuits to make the buildings light up and vehicles move. We all had a fantastic afternoon.
The children have all been answering different questions in RE about Christmas and what Christmas means.
Children in Year 3 have been answering the question, How and why is Advent important to Christians?
Children in Year 4 have been answering the question, Why do Christians call Jesus the light of the world?
Children in Year 5 have been answering the question, What are the themes of Christmas?
Children in Year 6 have been answering the question, What do the gospel stories tell us about the birth of Jesus?
They have found many things out and taken part in many creative activities.
We held our annual Christmas Raffle on Monday 17th December 2018. Congratulations to all of our winners!
