KS1 Trip to Beamish
Windy Nook Tea Room
Yr 1 Activity Afternoon at Colegate Primary School
Horrible History at Windy Nook?
On Wednesday 13th February, the children in Classes 3,4 and 5 broke all of the rules about school uniform! They were participating in a special day, and came dressed in their Victorian finery! A special day, devoted to History and designed to help the children understand what is was like to be a child in Victorian days was a huge success.
As well as washing socks in the poss tub, the children made broth and bread and revisited some favourite Geordie folk songs from the past.
Of course, when it came to smiling for the camera, the rules back then were quite different....
And was it fun to go to school in Victorian times?
What do you think?
Multi Skill afternoon
Year 2 children had a fun afternoon participating in a number of Multi Skills activities at Thomas Hepburn Community Secondary School.
Visit to St Alban's Church
Key Stage One thoroughly enjoyed their church visit this month. They walked up to St Alban's Church to participate in a christening service led by Mark Wroe. They were able to take part in a service, dressing up as the vicar and baptised a doll! This experience enriched the learning they have done this half term in RE.
When the Fire Engine came to Visit Us.
The Fire Brigade came to visit our school in September because we have been finding out about The Great Fire of London. We were shown the metal cutter, lots of equipment, their medical kit, a special camera that helps you to see in the dark and the water hose. the most exciitng bit was when the water hose was turned on - it was great!
