Giving Project Update

16th October 2024Fiona Goodwin
Bookmarks
The Giving Project volunteers came up with the idea to make bookmarks for the children in Years 1 and 2.
They thought it would be a lovely gift for the children and encourage them with their reading.
Their bookmarks were decorated with colourful stars and ribbons and they were greatly appreciated by all of the children who received them.
Good Luck Cards
The Giving Project volunteers thought it would be lovely to make Good Luck cards for the Year 6 children who were leaving the school.
All of the children received a beautiful card and inside there was a lovely encouraging verse for each child.
It was a special keepsake for the Y

ear 6 children who all loved their cards.

Year 6 Leavers 2024

14th August 2024Fiona Goodwin

Our school gives the year sixes a clap of honour each year to celebrate all their hard work over the last 7 years. It’s a rite of passage. Today was no different and is something that these children will remember for the rest of their lives. Westies for life. ❤️

Rugby Awards Presentation – 18th July 2024

19th July 2024Fiona Goodwin

John, a kind and dedicated coach from Westoe Rugby Club, visited our school on Wednesday morning to present trophies and medals to our children. John regularly volunteers his time to coach our pupils at West Boldon Primary School, providing expert tutelage under his skillful direction. His efforts have been instrumental, with some of our former pupils going on to represent Westoe Rugby Club thanks to his keen eye for talent.

John’s generosity extends beyond the rugby field. If you ever see him in Asda or Tesco raising money for Cancer charities, please consider donating any of your loose change to the charities that mean so much to him. Our children are truly fortunate to benefit from John’s commitment and kindness.

Rocksteady Concert & Staff vs Y6 Rounders!

19th July 2024Fiona Goodwin

What a busy day! We started off with out first ever Rocksteady concert, this was fantastic and to think that these children have only been playing since Easter! We then had a staff BBQ at lunchtime followed by the annual staff vs Year 6 rounders match. This is always keenly contested and today was no different! For once the staff actually achieved a deserved victory.

It has been so nice to build closer links with all our feeder nurseries this year and help the new Reception intake settle in so much better in September. The children had a chance to see their new teachers and their new classrooms. It was lovely!

The weather was perfect today and enabled us to hold both Rec/KS1 and KS2 Sports Days. The children loved trying their best to be the fastest and we had huge support from our parents/carers as usual. We know the children will sleep well tonight!
