All Y6 classes will be receiving expert Tennis coaching this term from Boldon Tennis Club. Both children and teachers are thoroughly enjoying the sessions.
A great start from our new Y2 Lego Club members working alongside our Y5/6 Lego Club members and finding out how to work with ‘Lego Wedo’. They all did a great job creating an alligator and making the mouth move.
What a fantastic day the Nursery children have had at the farm this week. We have held Rabbits, baby chicks, groomed the donkeys, washed Bob the Pig and bottle fed the lambs. The children even got a chance to explore the outdoor play areas and take a tractor ride to see the cows and their calves. The children, and teachers, had so much fun and we are so proud of their excellent behaviour today.

Y6 were left inspired today after a fantastic video conference link with local author, Niel Bushnell.
Along with three other schools, the children had the chance to listen to how he became a writer and find out what inspired him. There was also opportunities to ask questions and discuss his other work as an animator and game creator.
A huge thank you to ICT in Schools at The Word for this opportunity.
Year 5KM enjoying their coastal walk looking at features of coastal erosion.
A big well done to our Y6 as they come to the end of assessment week. A well deserved movie afternoon with snacks was enjoyed by all.
We are very proud of you all!
Police Constables Steve and Darren paid a special visit to our Y3 classes this week to explain some of the different jobs they do. The children had lots of very interesting questions to ask and some of them were delighted to have the chance to wear pieces of uniform, or even try out the handcuffs for size. Thankfully the policemen did find the key by home time!
A big thank you to Steve and Darren.
