Year 5 really enjoyed meeting authors and BBC Radio 1 presenters Greg James and Chris Smith about their new book ‘Super Ghost’ with the National Literacy Trust! There were lots of laughs as they read us Chapter One live and we can’t wait to read more, thank you for sending our school lots of copies to enjoy!
Out of 15,000 children watching, we were chosen as one of only two schools to ask a question live, and we loved hearing Greg James’ and Chris Smith’s favourite parts of the story to write!
Year 5 enjoyed our visit to South Shields beach this morning where we orientated maps, identified geographical features and drew sketch maps of what we could see. We even compared South Shields beach to Copacabana beach in Brazil.
This week we invited parents from Nursery up to Year 6 to experience our reading event. Held over 4 days, we showed parents how children in every year group are taught phonics and reading. We have had such positive feedback and would like to say a huge thank you to all the parents who attended and participated in our first parent event: we look forward to running others in the future.

Congratulations to our Star of the Week winners this week!
The pictures from our visit with Lucy Turner are eventually ready to view! We tried spotty dogs, mountain climbers, push ups and star jumps and it was exhausting! Well done to every single person who took part and tried their hardest. We were extremely proud of everyone!
This week the whole school has celebrated Art Week. Each year group focussed on a different art movement. We each learned about a different art style, some famous artist and create our own piece of fantastic art.
