5th May 2022A Rogers

This week we successfully held our first House Competitions – in Phase 2 we competed in Dodgeball, each team playing one another in a round robin style event, followed by 2 special games (The Eliminator and Free For All). The children played so well and we had lots of red faces from their exertions.

The Phase 2 Quiz included general knowledge, music, logo and staff baby photo rounds. Well done to those that took part. We had some high scoring teams

Also in the Phase 1 and 2 STEM Challenge the house teams pitted their wits against a big problem- they were stranded on an island and needed to build a shelter against the coming storm. There were all marvellous creations, although some of the teams may have gotten wet.

In Phase 1 pupils enjoyed taking part in the termly house quiz. The picture and general knowledge rounds were the favourites! Well done to all the children taking part!

Phase 1 were really were competitive when playing human table football. They needed to use excellent communication skills to guide the ball from player to player in order to score a goal. Well done to all the children taking part in the Sports Event!

Here are a small selection of photos from the various events…please see Facebook for more.

Overall Winners were Red House.

CHAMPIONS 2022

South Tyneside Cross Country Finals 2021-22

25th March 2022A Rogers

Today 29 pupils from KS2 competed at Temple Park Leisure Centre in the South Tyneside Cross Country Finals.

Firstly, I must say the commitment of the children, to give up the afternoon of their day off, highlighted their dedication once again. I was truly delighted to see them all performing to their very best and giving everything in the green and gold of Stanhope. Aided by the wonderful support from various families and friends as the sun beamed down on us.

Each child completed in their respective year group events, comprising of between 40 and 70 children from various schools in the borough.

All of our children, performed very well, working hard and demonstrating great determination right until the finishing line of their respective races.

Outstanding performers were:

Bobby (Y5) was push all the way, but his sprint finish burnt off the opposition. He is such a great talent in so many sports!

Rhianna (Y4) led from the front and was never headed throughout a brilliant race to gold.

Lucas (Y3) such a dominant display and winner by over 10 seconds. Such fabulous potential for the future!

Other Top 10 finishers included:
Ruby (Y5) 5th, Dakota (Y3) 8th, Lacey (Y4) 10th & Lee-Jay (Y3) 10th.

The Y4 Girls were also team winners of their age category which is fantastic for them as it was, for some of them, their first competition representing Stanhope.

We therefore finished as 4th overall team scoring 358 points.

I am so proud of all of you. Every mile counts…🎖😁

Basketball Finals H4H Newcastle 2022

9th March 2022A Rogers

On Friday 4th March our 7 remaining A Team pupils competed in the Hoops4Health Finals at the Vertu Honda Arena, Newcastle. It was wonderful to watch the North Stand of Sport Central steadily filling up with 50 members excited families, staff and friends from Stanhope. This was lovely to see our community, getting behind the team in a big finals event! Our players were really motivated to play in front of so much support, and give their very best.

The Stanhope team took to the court for the first round robin game against St. Bede’s RC S/S, the defending champions. Both teams had a number of near misses, before St. Bede’s scored with just 8 seconds remaining. Therefore St. Bede’s won 2-0. Immediately after we had to compose ourselves to play Biddick Hall Juniors. It was a dominant performance from the team with Leyo scoring 2, Archie 1 and Bobby 1 basket to end the game as 8-0 winners. Therefore we qualified to play in the final.

The final took place at half-time in the Eagles game, in a front of a great crowd: St. Bede’s RC S/S were our opponents.

We immediately started positively, as we passed the ball around confidently. A flowing team move saw take an early lead with Leyo taking a fine long range shot to score. This was met by a fantastic roar from the Stanhope support! We then went on to have a number of near misses, it was end to end play, before St. Bede’s scored to equalise. 2 late opportunities for Stanhope were met with very aggressive fouls from the opposition. Unfortunately this was the way the game ended: 2-2. Therefore a shoot out would decide the victors. Archie and Olivia stepped up for the green and golds, but sadly could not score. St. Bede’s also missed their 2 efforts. Finally a sudden death shot would decide the title. St. Bede’s scored and unfortunately we missed. It truly was a devastating loss for our hard working team – they gave their all and I’m sure they will bounce back to winning ways soon.

Well done to the skillful and dedicated players who had all trained outside with such commitment in the build up to the finals.

Finally, a big thank you to the outstanding school community, for your support on a memorable sporting occasion for our school. We will be back even better, more determined and stronger once again next year!
