In maths, Year One have carried out a variety of activities to help them recognise the words for numbers up to ten. They matched cards, played an interactive game and practiced writing the words after choosing number cards. Great job Year One!

Year 1 started a new topic in PE, throwing and catching. The children practiced in partners to throw and catch the ball demonstrating different techniques they had learnt in Reception.

What an amazing experience for our little ones, rock pooling with John from Durham Wildlife Trust. Park fun in the morning, followed by a scavenger hunt, exploring rock pools and handling sea creatures. What a fantastic day! I’m sure we’ll have lots of tired boys, girls and teachers tonight ☀️

This afternoon reception have learnt to dance like a sailor using The Sailor’s Hornpipe song. We listened to the music and thought about how it made us feel and how the music changes. We then watched a video of people performing a dance to the Sailor’s Hornpipe, we discussed how they moved. We then went outside into our garden and danced like a sailor following instructions. Well done reception, what great fun! ⛴️

Reception had a wonderful morning making the sounds of the sea, sea shakers! Look at all of the hard work that went into them & wait until you see us shake, shake, shaking them! ☀️

What a gorgeous morning for reception’s first sports day! Well done you little sports day superstars. 

Our reception children had a wonderful day last week, taking a trip on the ferry to North Shields! There was awe and wonder in abundance as our children boarded the ferry – what a magical day for everyone, with our children being spectacular! ✨

What a gorgeous day for Reception’s first Whole School Beach event! A massive thank you to all our lovely parents and carers for joining us. The weather was gorgeous and the children had so much fun! 

Today, Reception became pirates. 

Can you see an X on the map? That’s where the treasure is!
