A few weeks ago, Ms Brennan and Ms Parkin from Harton Academy’s year-7 transition team paid us a visit to introduce themselves and also put us through our paces with some team-based, problem solving activities. Firstly, the children considered and discussed what qualities are required for effective teamwork. Then they had to put these skills to the test and work together to complete tasks as a team. It was a very interesting session and the children learned a lot.
As part of our literacy topic, Year-6 have been studying Charles Dickens’ novel, A Christmas Carol. Last Wednesday, we took a trip to Middlesbrough Theatre to see it performed live. We had a really enjoyable day and the children’s exemplary behaviour was commented upon by several of the staff at the theatre. They were a credit to their families and their school and we’re very proud of them. Here are a couple of pictures below.
Once again, our children are fantastic! Here are our extremely successful results from the latest national Times Tables Rock Stars competition “England Rocks 2021”.
Harton Primary School is the 48th highest scoring school in England, out of 4,000+ schools!
Y4C is the 196th highest scoring class, out of 30,000+ classes!
Our highest scoring pupils were Jack S., Conner C. and Jessica M.
We are so immensely proud of everyone who took part!

Check out our amazing odd socks to celebrate Odd Socks Day 2021.
It has been an opportunity to encourage all of us to express ourselves, celebrate our individuality and what makes us all unique and special.
Monday will be Odd Socks Day in school. Children are to come to school in uniform but are allowed to wear ‘odd socks’. It’s a great way to celebrate what makes us all unique in Anti-Bullying Week!
A huge congratulations to Harry Burdis in Y6A.
Harry has already read over 500,000 words on a Accelerated Reader and is now a Half Millionaire.
We are so proud of Harry and his enthusiasm towards reading.
Harry was the first child to become a Word Millionaire in Y5 last year. Will he be the first child in the school to achieve it this year?
Today we held our annual Remembrance Day commemoration. Children across the school have been learning about Remembrance Day and every child made their own poppy. The poppies were displayed around the school. Here are some photos of our beautiful poppies.
