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 40 and 70 children from various schools in the borough.
All of our children, performed very well, working hard and demonstrating great determination right until the finishing line of their respective races.
Outstanding performers were:
Bobby (Y6) ran a great race to silver – he worked hard and showed his wonderful all around ability once again.
Lucas (Y4) led from the front and was never headed throughout for a very decisive victory racing to gold.
Ryan (Y3) such a great finish, tussling with the silver medalist, but pushing himself to gold in the final 100m. Such fabulous potential for the future!
Ava (Y3) following in her brothers footsteps she was never headed, leading from the front throughout for a clear gold medal winning run!
Other Top 10 finishers included:
Harry (Y6) 6th, Yanna (Y3) 7th, Lacey (Y5) 5th & Lee-Jay (Y4) 10th.
The Y3 Girls were also team winners of their age category which is fantastic for them as it was, for some of them, their first competition representing Stanhope.
I am so proud of all of you. Every mile counts…
🟡🟢SOUTH TYNESIDE TAG RUGBY LEAGUE FINALS 2022🟢🟡
Today our 18 Tag Rugby players competed at Temple Park in the South Tyneside Finals.
Our 2 teams competed with wonderful team spirit, composure and focus.
The drive, determination and sportsmanship from our teams was second-to-none as always, shaking hands with teams and thanking referees and organisers too. They are a credit to us. The children gave 100% to their team in each and every game.
Our A Team topped the table to take gold 🏉🥇🏆 winning all 7 games convincingly, while the B Team finished a creditable 5th with 1 win and 1 draw.
As this is the last event of this academic year, as well as the final event for our Year 6 pupils it made the victory all the sweeter.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank the pupils for their commitment and hard work. It’s been a privilege to coach and teach them, seeing them thrive and develop into great sportspeople. Congratulations and always remember that hard work does pay off. I’m so proud of you all and every child who represents us in the green and yellow of Stanhope. 😊👍👋👏

We enjoyed ordnance survey mapping, local area study and finding key landmarks, then we did drawing, shading and sketching in the North Marine Park where we even spotted a pod of dolphins! Finally we had a delicious McDonalds treat.
We cannot wait for tomorrow and what the rest of the week has in store.
