For an upcoming art project we ask if parens/carers can bring in any used bottle tops – any colour, shape or size would be much appreciated.
Thank you
Due to low numbers, Year 5 will complete their Bikeability tomorrow afternoon. The children need their bikes and helmets in school tomorrow only.
Thank you
After working extremely hard all week during their SATS, Year 6 relaxed and enjoyed a fun-filled afternoon. To de-stress, the children thoroughly enjoyed a Boys vs Girls game of rounders on the field. The boys were victorious but the girls are determined to win the next game.Later in the afternoon, the children loved spending more time in the Forest School. They continued to build their forts and relished in the summer sun.
We hope you enjoy your time off at half term. We return to school on Monday 4th June 2018. I would like to remind parents/carers in Year 5 that Bikeability will begin on the first day back and children will need their bikes and helmets in school from Monday – Thursday.
Every Friday in school, the children attend the weekly assembly where certificates and awards are given out for different reasons. Today in assembly, Miss Franks asked Mrs Martin to make the children aware of some half term statistics:
This half term, there has been an AMAZING 76 Random Acts of Kindness around school!!
This can be anything from children helping their peers/staff to covering a buddy session for a friend.
Thank you to all of the children who have contributed to the Random Acts of Kindness and lets hope there is even more next half term!
During Sports day and the rest of this week, Year 6 have been fundraising for their end of year trips. They decided to create a ‘guess a square’ game and the winner would be presented with a sports hamper. This was a great success and thank you to everyone who purchased a square, the winner was announced today – number 195, and the prize has been passed on. Year 6 raised a total of £44.50!!
We have been asked by the local authority to pass on the following information to all parents/carers:
Tellonym Application
Important safeguarding information for school staff, parents and carers .
South Tyneside Local Safeguarding Children Board have been made aware of the potential dangers associated with the use of the application “Tellonym” (a play on the words “Tell on him”)
The app is available as a free download on the Apple Istore and Google Play and is not regulated.
Tellonym advertises itself as “ the most honest place on the internet. See what your friends think of you, answer anonymous questions and ask others the things you have never dared …”.
The facility to allow anonymous postings has seen users (of any age) post a wide range of inappropriate messages, comments and photographs which have caused upset and distress to children and young people using the application which has required intervention from the police and other services.
As part of Child Safety Week 4th – 10th June, The Word are offering Online Safety Session for parents to provide advice and guidance around keeping children safe online

Today we have had a wonderful success in WINNING the South Tyneside Tennis Finals, held at Boldon LTA.

They were resounding winners with a total of 104.5 points, 2nd were East Boldon B 96 points and West Boldon B 78.5 points.
