We are so proud of our Year 6’s. Today was SATs results day. The children have all worked so hard and have all achieved so much. We know that regardless of what the children have achieved they are all going to go on and do great things in life. Well done Year 6!
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!
We held a fabulous ‘star’ of the week assembly on Friday. It was nice to hear how the children have been demonstrating Gold standard behaviour and work.
This week, Year 3, Year 4 and Arc 2 had a great visit with Jenna from Sunderland Software City. She told us all about her career involving technology, the amazing opportunities she’s had and how we can get into a career in tech. Most importantly we learned that there are lots of technology jobs and opportunities right here in the North East. We then had the opportunity to try some of the VR headsets that she had brought with her!
Community Champions from Asda Boldon and Asda South Shields joined our Year 6 classes to talk about the range of jobs available within Asda stores, including roles in security, finance, HR, the shop floor, and marketing and buying. It was fascinating to hear about product placement within the stores and how companies vie for the prime spots to sell their goods. Other topics discussed included how early Christmas appears in stores, other seasonal decisions, and the fierce competition with other supermarket giants.
Class 6 learned about the different roles in the NHS. The children enjoyed dressing up and picked their favourite career to research. They learned about the different skills and subjects required to become qualified in that job.
16 children from year four took part in the South Tyneside Dance Festival at the Customs House on Thursday evening. There was a lot of nerves and excitement before we took to the stage, but even technical difficulties didn’t stop our little GaGa’s from taking the audience to the Edge of Glory! Well done Year Four, you were all absolutely fantastic, and did our school proud! A special mention must go to Miss Skiggs for putting so much time and effort into training the children, you are as amazing as the children.
We have had a lovely day with our ‘star’ of the week assembly celebrating all our stars as well as our fantastic Year 4 dancers who blew everyone away with their performance at the Custom’s House last night. It was also made even brighter by seeing so many children dressing up to celebrate diversity!


We love our French lessons in Class 10. As a short brain break Madame Smith thought us a playground game to sing and play.
