I hope that you all had a lovely summer break, have recharged your batteries and created some wonderful memories together.

The new academic year has started with great excitement and the children have settled beautifully into routines. They have enjoyed seeing their friends and new teachers, have been working hard and ensuring that they are demonstrating positive learning behaviours.

On September 17th, we invite parents/carers to meet their child’s new teacher after school. The teacher will be available to chat to until 5.30pm and no appointment will be necessary. It will be a chance to ask any questions or to discuss how your child has settled etc. We hope that you will be able to pop in.

 

We hope that children, parents/carers, staff and governors enjoy the Summer break. We look forward to seeing the children return on Wednesday 4th September.

School inspections – a guide for parents_200618

On Wednesday staging will be brought in to school for our whole school photograph to celebrate the completion of the extension. Let’s hope the weather holds!

We hope that you have had a great half term. A reminder that this week there are a number of educational visits. On Tuesday the children in Dr Greenwell’s and Miss Scott’s classes are visiting the Hancock Museum. We also have a visit from the Centre for Life for Year 6 and Year 2 are orienteering at Staindrop.

On Wednesday afternoon we have Key Stage 2 Football at Staindrop.

On Thursday Reception and Year 2 are on a visit to Tynemouth so all in all it is another busy but exciting week.

A reminder that Monday 3rd June is a Teacher Training Day. We look forward to seeing the children on Tuesday 4th June.

Next week Year 6s will be sitting their SATs and we wish them well. After that, there are many great activities planned. I will accompany them on some.

On Friday, Year 6s will visit The Hub for kayaking and high ropes. Then, the following week, they are going on their residential to Ford Castle with Miss Richardson, Mrs Daniels and me. That should be a great experience. Please can parents ensure that any outstanding forms such as medical forms or consents are returned to the School Office. Thank you. Mr Minikin.
