Year 4 learned lots about the Anglo-Saxons at Jarrow Hall. We explored the Anglo-Saxon village learning what the animals were used for and their value. We investigated how herbs were used to make medicines and discovered that some of the Anglo-Saxon treatments are still used today! We then handled artefacts and made deductions and inferences about them. To end our fantastic day we staged our own battle, it was so much fun!
The children have made some special poppies for Veterans at Ease in South Shields. They look amazing in their window display!

Harton 4 v 0 Whitburn
At first, we were a bit shaky and inviting pressure onto ourselves, but then we started to keep the ball better and whilst defending we were getting more impact and started to win the ball. Just as everyone started believing that we could score, we did not disappoint and scored 2 goals. Just before half time a mistake at the back gave Whitburn a superb chance but Maisy made outstanding saves. In the second half, with our game faces on we played some really good attacking football and scored another 2 goals to wrap the game up.
Overall a game and a 4-0 win over Whitburn thanks to two goals each for both Charlie and Leon. Well done, Harton.
Harton 2 – 0 Westoe Crown
After kick off, Westoe began to pressurise us with many goal scoring opportunities with us playing on the counter attack. As we were under the cosh from the beginning we knew whoever got the first goal would be the team with the upper hand. Luckily our fantastic captain, Leon, scored the first goal to relieve the pressure. I was playing central defensive midfield and trying to pass the ball wide to Harry and Charlie whenever I got the opportunity.
After a tight first half, Mr Steadman got us ready for the second half with a very encouraging team talk. Early in the second half a pass from Ollie to our other new Year 5, Jesse, set him up for his first goal and understandably he was overjoyed with his achievement. I moved into defence with Bonnie and we worked well to hold the line and then Harley replaced me and along with Maisy kept a clean sheet.
Overall an amazing performance, with many brilliant saves from Maisy. Well done Harton, 2-0 is a brilliant score line that we should all be proud of.

The children have been busy making poppies for the charity ‘Veterans at Ease’. The poppies will be displayed in their shop window on King Street.
It’s been a busy week at Harton as we have been voting for our 2024-2025 School Council representatives.
The hall was transformed into a polling station after the children carefully explored the role of the School Council in their Health and Wellbeing lessons. Each class took part in a secret ballot and, after the children had voted, the ballot papers were carefully counted.
We look forward to revealing the new representatives soon.
Year 4 had so much fun at South Shield’s Museum. We took part in a mission called ‘Time Odyssey’. We met different characters from the past who were lost in time. We had to choose and analyse museum objects in our teams to help our character to return to their time zone!
