ARC1 and 2 had a cracking afternoon welcoming parents, carers, grandparents and siblings for some Easter fun!
There were plenty of egg-citing activities on offer – card making , painting egg decorations , and a school-wide Easter egg hunt ! We also shared some tasty hot cross buns and drinks together.
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us – it was a joy to have you in school and celebrate together!
On Monday, we wrapped up our final two Mother’s Day events, and what a special day it was!
Upper Key Stage 2 started the day with heartfelt performances, singing beautifully and sharing touching words about their love and appreciation for their mums.
Lower Key Stage 2 ended our celebrations with three stunning songs, followed by a delightful afternoon tea of scones and a good old cuppa!
We’ve been absolutely blown away by the incredible support from all our parents over the past two days. Thank you for making these events so special!
We had an amazing time celebrating Mother’s Day with our Reception parents at our special Stay and Play session! It was heartwarming to see so many parents join us for a morning filled with fun, creativity and quality time with their little ones.
A huge highlight was hearing the children sing so beautifully – it was truly a special moment!
Thank you to all the parents who came along and made it such a fantastic event. Your support and involvement mean so much to us and, most importantly, to your children!
We kicked off the day with our Star of the Week celebration, celebrating all the children who met our Gold Standards! A special well done to one of our Year 6 boys who earned the Golden Coin for his amazing achievement in his weekly arithmetic test!
We then moved on to the start of our Mother’s Day assemblies for Key Stage 1. The children sang beautifully and spoke clearly, sharing just how much they love their wonderful mams. It was a truly special moment!
A big well done to everyone involved!
On Wednesday, our Year 3 and ARC 2 pupils stepped back in time for an Ancient Greek adventure!
A fantastic day of history, storytelling, and hands-on learning!
Last week, our Year 4 students had an amazing time with the OpenZone exploring Lego Spike! They worked together to code, debug and build exciting projects, developing their teamwork and problem-solving skills along the way. It was fantastic to see their creativity and resilience in action!
A huge thank you to OpenZone for an inspiring hands-on experience! We can’t wait to apply what we’ve learned back in the classroom!
Our little gardeners have been busy tidying and sorting the Reception garden, getting it ready for some exciting planting! Over the next couple of weeks, we’ll be sowing seeds – including broad beans, inspired by Jack and the Beanstalk! Who knows…maybe we’ll grow a giant surprise!
Why did Jack plant a bean?
Because he wanted to stalk up on veggies!
Great job, Reception! We can’t wait to see what sprouts!
Last week, the whole school took part in British Sign Language Week, learning about the importance of inclusive communication and the experiences of the deaf community.
As part of this Year 5 took part in a powerful lesson led by Miss Swales and Mr Gordon, delivered entirely in silence – just as it would be for a deaf child.
Without using sound, we quickly realised how challenging it can be to:
This experience truly opened our eyes to the daily challenges faced by people who are deaf. British Sign Language Week has helped us all develop a deeper empathy and appreciation for the importance of accessible communication.
Primary School is all about children having fun and loving the school experience – and lunchtimes are no exception! At West Boldon, we know how important it is for our children to interact, build friendships, and enjoy their break, which is why we embrace OPAL!
From den building, tire swings, and dance competitions, to pool, table tennis, table football, darts competitions and playing in Boldon’s BIGGEST ever sandpit, there’s something for everyone!
Happy, active, and engaged children make for a fantastic school experience – just the way it should be!
