We really appreciate the support of the gazette in publishing articles regarding the school. Really helps to showcase what we are trying to achieve as a school. We loved working with local lad Tyler too to create something amazing for the children. ... See MoreSee Less

We’re celebrating our Boldon roots!

Our Reading Bus has had an incredible makeover thanks to local graffiti artist Tyler Rutley, who’s transformed it with scenes from Boldon Colliery’s mining past. It’s a powerful tribute to our local heritage and a fantastic way for our children to connect with the history of their families and community.

“Focusing on the past is a key part of our curriculum. Many of our children’s parents and grandparents worked in the coal industry – this project gives them a real sense of pride in where they come from.”
– Linsey Garr, Head Teacher

“As a Boldon Colliery lad, I was proud to support this. It’s about giving something back and helping inspire the next generation to love reading and their heritage.”
– Tyler Rutley, Artist

We love it – and the children do too!

Such a lovely moment today presenting our Year 6s with their leavers hoodies! 🎓💙 It’s hard to believe they’ve only got one term left before we wave them goodbye 👋😢 Still lots of hard work and fun ahead, and we know they’ll continue to make us proud every step of the way!
