Royal Navy Careers Talk

by

Year 5 and Year 6 children were visited by the Royal Navy Attract Team who delivered an inspirational careers talk.

Pupils learned about the different job roles in The Royal Navy and the skills needed to carry out such jobs.

The afternoon session then enabled children to take part in a range of team building and leadership activities.

Thank you to the Royal Navy personnel who delivered the sessions for us.

Wear Pink Day

by

Wear Pink Day – Friday 4th October 2024.

In collaboration with Teesdale Cancer Research UK and the ‘Turn Barney Pink’ event, we are encouraging children to wear something pink to school this Friday. This can be something as simple as a pink scarf or hat… or even a full outfit! The choice is yours.

If you would like to donate £1.00 to Teesdale Cancer Research UK please send this to school with your child.

Thank you for your continued support.
