Recently, children brought home leaflets for the Christmas Child Shoe Box appeal. We look forward to receiving filled shoe boxes donated to this wonderful charity.
If you are not able to fill a shoebox but would like to make a contribution towards one – please just send in the items with your child and we will fill shoe boxes with donated items.

Samaritans Purse – What Goes in My Shoebox
Armedeo Modigliani (1884-1920) was an Italian artist. He is famous for painting his self-portraits and portraits with long, slender necks and faces. We have been inspired by his works of art.
For the past four weeks, year 6 have been having fun learning to play hockey with a coach. They’ve learned to dribble, stop and pass the ball, and are beginning to play small sided games.
On Wednesday 3rd October, Year 6 visited South Shields’ Fire Station to take part in RAP. RAP stands for Reducing Accidents at Play. As Year 6 become more independent, it is important that they know how to keep safe in different situations. They all visited seven scenarios and learnt vital information to help them as they do more on their own.
Have a look at some of the photos and ask your child all about them.
A local theatre company performed ‘Ti Jean and his Goat’ for us in a mixture of English and
French.
The Thurston photos can be found on our Galleries page.

We were delighted today to present these three pupils with very prestigious ‘Word Millionaire’ trophies in assembly. Amie, Evie and Ashlee have been such enthusiastic and dedicated readers, both in and out of school that they have read over one million words through our Accelerated Reader program. We are very proud of them and hope to be awarding more Word Millionaires soon.
The whole school will be spending some time working with local artist Zoe Emma Scott. This afternoon, it was the turn of Y6A.
The children spent some time thinking of signs of Spring before creating a Springtime picture.
First, they sketched in pencil, then outlined in black pen before painting and adding texture. Zoe was on hand to give expert advice and the children grew in confidence and skills as the afternoon went on. Everyone had a great time and we have many budding artists.
Look out for our finished pieces…..
