Year 5 have created and donated hampers for young adults living in South Tyneside, who are receiving support from a local charity, The Key Project. This morning they delivered their hampers to the main office and had a first hand look at some of the work that the charity do for young people in South Tyneside.
Here are a few pictures from Y5’s Christmas party last week. A great time was had by all!
Thank you to everyone who donated a gift to our Christmas appeal. We were blown away by the generosity of your donations once again.
The charity were over the moon when they came to collect. All donations will be given to local children in the North East.
A great time was had at the Y4 Christmas party last week.
If children wish to, they are welcome to wear their Christmas jumper again on Friday with their school uniform.
Our choir proudly performed at the Co-op South Shields Funeral Care Memorial Service helping to raise £250 for Cancer Connections on the evening.
As always we were very proud of all of the children who took part in this very special service at St Hilda’s Church.

Congratulations to Ellen, one of our school chefs, who has won two North of England and Scotland cooking competitions. She came away with two gold medals for her mince pie and edible Christmas tree decorations.
We are very proud of her achievements!
Well done to all of our KS1 and Reception children who performed three fabulous Nativity performances to a packed house each time.
Great work!
