Reception have begun their Little Movers PE sessions.
Little Movers is an exciting Dance and Movement company that offer fun engaging classes for early years PE. The children are all engaged and are having great fun learning new skills and techniques which in turn helps them to develop their gross motor skills.
In Reception, for our activities on World Mental Health Day we decided to have a Yoga session and draw a character using a tutorial on YouTube. Relaxing and so much mindfulness!
This half term in PE, we are learning how to play rounders. We have been learning about the different positions and what we need to do. During the lessons, we have been practising our throwing, catching and batting skills.
We have been working so hard to develop our gross and fine motor skills over the last few weeks. Outside we have been climbing, running, dancing and negotiating obstacles. We have also been using scarves, dough disco, cutting, drawing tutorials and so much more to develop our fine motor skills.
We have had so much fun today! We have been lucky enough to have a visit from Freestyle Footballer, Jamie Knight. He taught us some fabulous tricks and as you can see 3 Purple were amazing! Watch out Jamie were going to keep going and smash your world records!
Today we had a special visitor in school. Jamie Knight who is ranked top 10 in the world for freestyle football and stared alongside Lionel Messi in an advert in 2020. Jamie came into school to show us his freestyle skills. He was amazing and gave a workshop to teach us some tricks including around the world, a heal kick and lots more.
Welcome to the first post showcasing the amazing work completed by year 1. The children have all settled back into school life with ease and are taking on their new challenges with excitement and creativity. We have been looking at sorting objects in various ways in our maths lessons and ‘The Colour Monster’ has been our book of choice in English where we have been talking about our feelings. Our PE sessions this term are with our sports coach and we are focussing on different ways to move and jump. Our Learning Means the World lessons have been around safe playing with our friends and looking at habitats and life cycles of animals. As you can see we have been really busy but have had so much fun and can’t wait to share more of our experiences with you throughout the year!

Chris & the Team at Start 2 Finish
As part of our LMTW theme ‘Picture our Planet’, we researched four of the highland games, shotput, caber toss, hammer throw and tug ‘o’ war. We found out about the games’ history, the rules and how to play. Then we taught each other how to play the different games.
We had so much fun taking part in the games, bring on sports day!
Hebburn Lakes’ Upper Key Stage Two Boys’ Football Team took part in this afternoon’s South Tyneside Primary Football Champions’ League Finals at Mariner’s Park in Jarrow.
We are delighted to report that the team achieved a very creditable 3rd-placed finish, only conceding one goal across the seven matches that were played.
Having won our first five games, it all came down to two very close fixtures against Cleadon Academy and St.Aloysius, where a 0-0 draw and a last-minute 1-0 defeat cost the team the chance to be crowned champions.
Nevertheless, we couldn’t be prouder of the team and the journey that the boys have been on this season. It wasn’t to be our year, but we’ll be back in 2023/24. Well done boys on an absolutely fantastic season of high-quality football in which you have come so very close to being named the best team in South Tyneside.
Thanks also to Mr Todd for his valuable support this season.
