Here are a few photos taken at the Y2 Christmas party. Both staff and pupils had a brilliant time.
Our children in foundation and KS1 received a very special visit today a whole week early before the big event!
Yes, the man in red himself visited the children to give them an early treat before the start of their Christmas holidays.
Mortimer Primary was a whole lot more colourful today when so many of our children and staff supported Save the Children’s ‘Christmas Jumper Day’.
We held a whole school assembly to end this term and celebrate the start of the Christmas festivities and I am sure you will agree our hall looks very festive!
What a fantastic afternoon at the Y6 Christmas party. Well done to all the children, some super dancing and a very competitive game of musical chairs.
Yesterday twelve children from Y4 visited the Apple store in Eldon Square to receive training for using Ipads.
The children worked with a team of experts and now hold skills that they will be able to bring back to school and share with other pupils.
As always, the children behaved exceptionally well and so were treat to a little detour to see Fenwicks window on the return home.
Our school choir proudly has around 75 children who attend weekly rehearsals.
This time of year is always very busy with bookings in our local community. This Christmas the children have performed to a local community group at Westoe Methodist Church, Hill Head farm, The Baptist Tabernacle’s Friendly Circle and at St Hilda’s Church.
The children always receive wonderful praise wherever they go, not only for their singing but also their impeccable manners and behaviour.
A huge thank you to the children and also to Miss Middleton, Mrs Taylor and Mr Powell who work so hard with our choir.
We always love to hear parent’s feedback to things going on in school but this week we were especially pleased to read the responses to Y5 Christmas books for reception.
Thank you for your kind words, we will be sharing these with the children and staff in Y5.
We enjoy hearing about our children outside of school and it was great to receive this picture of one of our Y2 pupils making cakes for his Christmas party.
Have a great party Y2!
As part of a cross curricular project Y5 have created their own Christmas stories for reception children. Each book is dedicated to an individual child.
The Y5 children shared their finished books with the reception year group this week.
This is a project that has been repeated for many years and we see it as a great link between our older and younger children.
