South Tyneside Basketball Qualifiers 2018-2019

11th January 2019A Rogers

On Friday 11th January 13 pupils from KS2 competed at Temple Park Leisure Centre in the South Tyneside H4H qualifiers.

Our 2 teams competed with wonderful team spirit against 26 other teams – with the aim of reaching the H4H Finals night on 18th January 2019.

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 finished 3rd in their group with 2 wins and 1 draws.

Team 1 advance to the knockout stages and faced Holy Trinity 2. Despite taking an early lead we conceded 2 late baskets to lose 2-4 and miss out on a place on Finals Night next week.

Year 4 – The Tudors

21st December 2018S Office
This week, Year 4 have thoroughly enjoyed the end of their topic of ‘Who Were the Terrible Tudors?’ On Tuesday, the children celebrated with a Tudor Day. They researched a range of words invented by William Shakespeare, designed their own Tudor shield and even created a traditional Tudor dance in groups.
Later, the children tried pottage with bread. Most of the children enjoyed tasting the popular ancient soup. Overall, the children have learnt many facts about the Tudors, especially Henry VIII and his wives.

Thank you!

A big thank you to everyone that contributed to our food bank collection for

Hospitality and Hope. We had a great amount of food and toiletries which we delivered

#STOPTHESTIGMAST

6th December 2018S Office

We have received the following information from Chrissy Hardy (Public Health Practitioner for children and young people)

We would like to share the following message!!

Hi all,

I am writing to you to formally launch our new ‘It’s Okay not to be Okay’ Mental Health Anti-Stigma Campaign. The aim of the campaign is to start conversations, spread key messages about mental health and encourage young people who are struggling to speak out about how they feel.

The campaign logo and artwork was designed by a group of South Tyneside young people and formally launched at a snazzy launch event at the Grotto South Shields. Young people have already started to promote this campaign and been sharing our logo already on their social media.

I have attached all of the artwork- Can you please use these on your screens, your websites and social media accounts. Can you please use the #STOPTHESTIGMAST so we can see where it is being shared.

Alongside the campaign launch we are also running a competition – we are looking for the most creative image of the tagline ‘It’s Okay not to be Okay’- this can be a photograph, a graphic, a poster- the more creative the better. Young people can enter this competition using the hashtag #stopthestigmaST or by emailing their entries to my email address. The closing date is Christmas Day and there will be prizes for the most creative.

Thanks again for helping to spread these messages

Chrissy
