We have been working hard in Year 2 and have started lots of exciting new units in our learning. In English, we are focusing on the poem The Owl and the Pussy-cat . We have been reading the poem carefully, learning new vocabulary, and exploring the characters and events in the story. We have also been practising reading with expression and writing simple sentences inspired by the poem. In RE, we have been exploring the Bible and learning that, as Christians, we believe the Bi

Year 1 have had a lovely and very busy week! In Science, the children planted their own beans and are excited to observe how they grow and change over time. In English, they enjoyed exploring the story Beegu , thinking carefully about how she feels at different points in the story. The children then wrote their own sentences to describe Beegu’s emotions, showing great empathy and thoughtful ideas. In Maths, the class continued developing their place value knowledge by focusin

Year 3 children led a worship based on the theme of service. They thought carefully about how each part of the worship could enhance the theme and created a beautiful moment of reflection.

Year4 have had another incredibly busy week! In PE, they have displayed excellent hand-eye coordination when practising ball skills and continue to love their T1 Rugby sessions. In French, they have been writing sentences about animals using colour adjectives. To end the week, they produced some gorgeous acrostic poems to celebrate D iversity Day.

Year 5 have had a brilliant week. Our visit to Nissan  was amazing and gave the children the opportunity to use their coding skills and see real-life robots in action. As part of our geography work, we were visited by a scientist specialising in solar energy, who helped us learn all about this important renewable resource. We also enjoyed Diversity Day , where we talked about what makes each of us special and unique.

We have been revisiting our sewing skills to help us move forward in our new Design Technology unit, Making Cushions. We are working hard to independently thread our needles and knot our thread as well as consolidating our running stitch skills.

Y6 have had great fun in French. They have been learning about their body and movements. All of this knowledge was put to the test when they had to complete a dance routine!

Y6 have enjoyed talking about 'sources' as part of their current RE topic. Today, they have worked in small groups to develop their understanding of how to find references using the Bible.

Happy New Year! It has been wonderful to welcome the children back to school, bright-eyed, enthusiastic, and ready to learn. Year 1 kicked off the term with an exciting start to our new English topic. Over the Christmas break, a mysterious crash site appeared in the school hall! After investigating, the children discovered that we have a friendly alien called Beegu visiting our school. This sparked lots of imagination and creativity, with the children designing lost posters,

Year 6 have begun to design the base for their buzzer game. They thought carefully about the design and how the net of the shape would mean that some of the images would have to be drawn up-side-down to be correct when put together.

Year 5 have had a fantastic first week back at school. They have been exploring materials and their properties in science, learning about the Mars Rover and data transmission in ICT, and discovering different forms of energy in geography.

Year 4 have made a superb start to 2026! They have had an incredibly busy first week back; working with the PE service in rugby, creating 3D sketches using a range of pencils, and singing with Miss Hurley. Great work, Year 4.

In English, we have began looking at the traditional tale of The Pied Piper of Hamlin. We will be studying different versions of the tale and comparing and contrasting them. We started by looking at the townspeople of Hamlin and what we could infer about them from the clues in the text. We then embraced our acting skills to show how the people of Hamlin would have felt about a rat infestation in their beautiful houses. As you can see, the people of Hamlin are horrified and no

Year 3 loved their first rugby session with the Newcastle PE Service. We showed excellent spatial awareness and impressive ball-handling skills, throwing ourselves into the lesson with enthusiasm and teamwork. We can't wait to take part in the inter-schools tournament.

Year 2 have had a wonderful and festive run-up to Christmas. They performed brilliantly in their nativity and enjoyed a fun-filled party day. The children have been busy creating Angels of Hope, cards, puppets, gift tags and calendars. Everyone has worked incredibly hard this term, and I would like to thank all the children for doing their very best. I hope you all have a happy, peaceful and magical Christmas. Finally, a huge thank you for all your kind words, cards and email

What an incredible term it has been for our Year 1 children! Since September, they have grown and learned so much and we are so proud of every single one of them. It has been a joy to watch their confidence develop, their curiosity blossom and their love of learning shine through each day. We cannot wait to see how much more they will continue to grow and develop throughout the rest of their time in Year 1. It truly has been our pleasure to spend each day with them and to be

An amazing performance in Sacred Heart Church by Year 5 and Year 6. They worked well as a team to spread the message of hope, peace and joy at Christmas. Have a very Merry Christmas, and thank you for all your support, cards and gifts.  🎄✨

This morning, our Faith In Action team led us in a beautiful Advent Reflection A thoughtful and prayerful time as we prepare our hearts during this special season.

What a wonderful week we’ve had in Year 5! Our Christmas party day was brilliant, with lots of games, crafts and dancing enjoyed by everyone. The nativity performance was outstanding, featuring beautiful singing and confident reading that told the story of the first Christmas so clearly and thoughtfully. We have also learnt all about global warming, its impact on our world, and how we can reduce our carbon footprints. In addition, we made Angels of Hope , linked to our work i
