School Council introduce the Hebburn Lakes chant!
We have a new chant, using ideas from all of the children… it is fabulous!
In Jigsaw he have created a bird to go into our garden of dreams. We designed it together, then in our teams we created it. We have been learning all about how to work as a team and learning that when you do you can create some wonderful creations – as you can see here.
2 Purple have had so much fun with our Land Ahoy! theme this week. We have been designing a remote control to help a pirate with one eye, a hook for a hand and a parrot on his shoulder! First we drew the pirate that we were designing for. Then we had to design a remote control that would help him with his everyday pirate life. The children came up with some fantastic ideas including a remote to find treasure, one to protect them from sharks, one to alert them when other pirates are near and one to help calm him down when he gets angry.

This week in Learning Means The World, we have taken part in a week long design project. First, we analysed a pirate character and decided what his needs were. We then came up with ideas to create a remote contol to help him navigate the stormy seas and other problems he faces. Our designs had all kinds of imaginative, magical buttons. Our final design step today was to make the remotes and evaluate our outcome.
This week 2 Red have ben working as designers to invent a remote control for a pirate.
They followed the design brief, planned, edited and created their design all to fit the needs of their pirate.
Councillor David Francis joined us as a special guest in our assembly. He is a local councillor who is a member of the Green Party. He talked to us about what inspired him to want to make a difference in his local community and then presented the Eco Warriers with the Eco -Schools Award flag and certificate.
We look forward to welcoming him back to school so that he can find out more about our Conservation themes.
The theme of this Years Mental Health Week is ‘Let’s Connect’. Connection is vital for our wellbeing. Let’s Connect is about making meaningful connections and Miss Smith from the Healthy Minds Team came into school to today and delivered and assembly to encourage our children (and staff) to connect with others in healthy, rewarding, and meaningful ways.
To celebrate Mental Health Week in school and to raise awareness of the importance of children’s mental health we have completed lots of different activities in class through out the week.
