This morning we were delighted to have the opportunity to work with so many parents – Thank you for attending, your support is greatly appreciated.
Barclays Workshops
Today we welcomed Barclays back to school. Here they worked with Y3-Y6 in workshop sessions discussing money matters and prioritising when budgeting.
The children thoroughly enjoyed their experience.
Thank you Barclays! 😁
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

Any envelopes handed in to the school after Friday will not be accepted. Any orders after this date will have to be posted to the photography company at your own cost.
Today Dr Mark Carpenter came in and shared his ‘Dreamcatcher’ Assembly with the whole school. It was fascinating listening to Mark and he dispelled many worries and beliefs linked to the medical profession. He recently spoke to the children as part of our second Job Fair and couldn’t wait to work with them again today.
The children had the opportunity to put peers into the recovery position too.
Mark then worked with Y5 and Y6 in 2 workshops where they learned how to perform CPR.
Thank you Mark!
Next week we welcome the Barclay’s Team back to work with the children in Key Stage 2.
Today our school council attended the remembrance service at the West Park.
They laid a wreath on behalf of the school, along with some other schools in
the area. The were very well behaved, we even had members if the public commenting on their excellent behaviour. Well done school council.
Year 5 had an excellent time at the Open Zone @ The Word yesterday. They learned how to log in to their school email, send emails and create their own websites about Marie Curie! They even had time at the end of the day to do some computer coding on Hour of Code website https://code.org/minecraft

Yesterday 31 pupils from KS2 competed at Temple Park Leisure Centre in the South Tyneside Cross Country Finals.
Each child completed in their respective year group events, comprising of between 80 and 100 children from various schools in the borough.
All of our children, performed well, working hard and demonstrating great determination.
Outstanding performers were:
Cassie Howard (Y4) who lead from the very start and was never headed. She stormed to a convincing victory, she is a great talent with so much potential for the future.
Another highlight was Uzair Rana (Y3), Seren Shaw (Y3) & Alexa Reid (Y5) who all finished in 4th place.
Other Top 10 finishers included:
Ruby Sharp (Y4) 6th, Given Mbila (Y4) 6th, Brooke Urwin (Y6) 7th, Ryan Smith (Y3) 8th, Riley O’Sullivan (Y4) 9th, Shari Viney (Y5) 9th & Kara Osman (Y4) 10th.
The Y3 Boys Team were Winners of their age category which is fantastic for them as it was their first competition representing Stanhope.
The Y3 Girls, Y4 Boys and Y4 Girls were all 2nd in their team categories. The Y5 Girls were 6th and Y5 Boys, Y6 Girls and Y6 Boys all finished 10th.
We therefore finished as 3rd overall team scoring 464 points.
