Yesterday, Year 6 created their own Pop Art inspired pieces of work. Having previously created a mood board of ideas, the children sketched their own onomatopoeia picture. Using a variety of key colours, the children worked extremely hard to produce their final piece. It was definitely clear that the children thoroughly enjoyed their afternoon of painting – it was a good job they were wearing aprons.
The Pop Art will be displayed in the school hall for everyone to see.
Eight Stanhope children have been selected to represent South Tyneside against other Districts in the Sportshall Athletics County Finals on Saturday 24th February!

What a wonderful achievement after great success already in winning the South Tyneside Finals and finishing 5th in the Tyne and Wear County Finals
I can’t wait to see you perform. Best of luck!
Mr Rogers
All of your support is always appreciated and all money raised will contribute to attendance initiatives in school.
This morning the children in Year 4 took part in the South Tyneside Multi skills Festival.
The children have been practising for several weeks and were great at todays festival. They had a wonderful time and put all of their practise to good use!
As you are aware here at Stanhope Primary School we take pride in our excellent attendance record.
This time in the year always proves difficult to maintain this. To help improve our attendance we would like your child to participate in a four week Attendance Reward Initiative.
We have displayed a chart in your child’s class, which they will mark each day they are in school during the special four weeks.
If your child attends school every day from Monday 19th February 2018 to Friday 16th January 2018 he/she will be invited to a special performance.
We have invited Mr. Windbags (Magician) to come along and entertain the children for an hour in school on the afternoon of Wednesday 21st March 2018 followed by a DVD.
The show will take place in school and there will be members of staff present at all times. If you do not want your child to watch the show please inform your child’s class teacher.
I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you for your continued support.
For this half term’s after school club, the children will be taking part in aerobics on a Thursday evening. The children are put through their paces and have great fun.
Last week at Stanhope Primary School was Inventors Week. The children spent parts of their week looking at different inventors. They then used different methods to document all of the facts they had found. Some classes drew pictures, did a piece of writing, made quizzes and much more.
As each class chose a different inventor, on Friday’s assembly the children in each class got up and presented to the rest of the school which inventor they were looking into and what they had learnt during the week.
The child had lots of fun throughout the week and did a fantastic job of sharing their new knowledge with the other children.
Yesterday Year 6 began their new topic of ‘Film Making’ in Computing. Over the next few weeks, the children will be creating their own documentary based on the Ancient Egyptians.
In today’s session, the children worked in groups to plan their documentary. Once their plans were finalised, the children began to think about their interview script and what information will be required.
Keep posted to see how their documentaries develop.
