Y4L Learn About Allotment Safety

14th May 2021S Robson

Y4L were learning that there are rules for visiting the allotment in order to keep it a safe and rewarding experience for everyone.

We agreed that we should always walk in the allotment, wear gloves when litter picking or digging the soil, and act respectfully towards the environment.

We had a great time exploring!

We are delighted to support South Tyneside Council in their commitment to raising awareness of climate change in the borough. Their toolkit will support staff in teaching our pupils about environmental awareness and climate change.

Y5B Visit the Allotment

13th May 2021S Robson

Y5B repotted some leek plants, then placed them in the polytunnel. Pupils were fascinated by what was growing in there. They sniffed the herbs: mint, thyme and rosemary in the raised beds. Everyone loved seeing how much the bulbs they had planted in Year 4 had grown.

Back to school – Wellbeing Bags

9th March 2021S Robson

We all know how important mental health and wellbeing are, so a big thank you to the NEU Help a Child to Learn Foundation, and to Thompson and Morgan for their support. Their donations have enabled us to give a Wellbeing Bag, complete with a range of resources to support wellbeing, to all of our pupils.

There’s something for everyone inside. Welcome back!

Green Fingered Year 1!

We enjoyed planting different seeds this afternoon including broccoli, courgette, leeks and turnip. We can keep an eye on them in our classroom until the weather gets warmer. Fingers crossed we can transfer the plants into our raised beds and look forward to lots of lovely vegetables!
