SWIM HATS 🏊♂️🏊♀️
We now have our BRAND NEW swim hats in school.
We are phasing out the old red swim hats. If your child/ren is in years 3-5 we ask that you purchase the newly branded hat when your child/ren next has swimming lessons from the school office. The hats are priced at £2.00 each.
Year 3 will begin swimming next Wednesday (29th January 2020)
Thank you
Year 3 took part in a multiskills competition at Temple Park. All of the children tried really hard in lots of different events. Team A came second overall. Well done everyone.
Brilliant Bronze for Sportshall Athletics team at the Tyne and Wear County Finals!
Today 25 children from Y3-6 competed at Temple Park Leisure Centre in the Tyne and Wear County Sportshall Athletics Finals.
Having qualified to represent South Tyneside when winning the previous round (for the third year in succession) in November 2019 the children competed fiercely against very talented pupils from across the county.
The children have practiced diligently and with great determination for many months, both in school at break times and lunchtimes, as well as after-school too. Their commitment has been second-to-none.
At the end of the event, when the scores of the pupils within each team were totalled, our Team were announced as BONZE MEDALISTS. Wellfield Middle School were 2nd and Kings crowned CHAMPIONS.
There were some impressive performances, with great potential for future years demonstrated too.
Winners on the day included:
From the GIRLS:
Over and Under Relay 1st 1:14.85
Obstacle Relay 1st 1:25.55
From the BOYS:
Over and Under Relay 1st 1:11.3

Well done to all of the pupils involved. I am extremely proud of each and every one of you. Hard work does pay off! 😃
Today 14 pupils from KS2 competed at Temple Park Leisure Centre in the South Tyneside H4H qualifiers.
Our 2 teams competed with wonderful team spirit against 28 other teams – with the aim of reaching the H4H Finals night on 7th February 2020.
The drive, focus and sportsmanship from our teams was second-to-none, it was even commented upon by the Eagles coaches. The children gave 100% to their team in each and every game.
Our team 1 topped their morning group winning all 5 games convincingly, while team 2 also finished the group stages in 1st place with 4 wins and 1 loss.
Team 1 advance to the knockout stages and faced Team 2 sadly. Despite taking an early lead Team 2 equalised and the game went to a penalty shoot out. Jayden stepped up and scored the winning basket.
Team 1 then advanced to play Mortimer 1 we won 8-0 to book our place at Finals Night!

On Wednesday morning, Year 2 enjoyed a Road Safety session in the school hall. The children met Lori and Julie from South Tyneside Council who delivered the session. During the morning, the children were learning how to successfully use the Green across Code when crossing the road.
For two weeks Year 5 have had the pleasure of learning and practising basketball skills with the Newcastle Eagles over two morning sessions. They have really enjoyed learning new skills and techniques, demonstrating some excellent ball work!
