‘The Rescuers’ home learning!

2nd July 2023Victoria Cartmell

This half term, Year 5 Navigators are embarking on a new Learning Means The World theme, titled ‘The Rescuers’.

Focusing on the catastrophic tragedy of The Titanic, we have delved into our research about this, once majestic ship, nicknamed ‘Queen of the Sea’ and ‘Unsinkable’… to name a few.

We have thoroughly enjoyed learning about The Titanic… so much so, that no sooner had our home learning menu been taken home, we had some of our 5 Blue Navigators use their research, to create phenomenal, scaled-down models of the majestic vessel, just as an engineer or designer would have done, back in 1912!

Little Inventors- Competition Winner!

5th June 2023Victoria Cartmell

Back in February, South Tyneside Council and Dogger Bank Wind Farm teamed up with Little Inventors to bring us ‘Powering the Future: South Tyneside and Beyond!’

Both our Year 4 and %ear 5 pupils took on an invention challenge, created for their year group.

This challenge focused on the role and uses of wind and kinetic energy- both forms of renewable energy.

All of our entries were amazingly creative and bursting with innovation!

Incredibly, out of the 167 ideas posted into the competition, our very own Tommy (4 Red) had his invention selected as a winning entry; he was then invited to meet the designers and have his invention brought to life!

Autism Support

26th May 2023J Donkin

Dear Parents & Carers,

If you have a child who has recently received an Autism diagnosis or received an Autism diagnosis some time ago, but you haven’t yet attended a support programme, please make note of the following:

Download (PDF, 1.84MB)

EarlyBird, EarlyBird Plus and Teen Life are excellent and easily accessible programmes that assist you to develop a tool-kit of strategies that will enable you to support your child.  Working along side other parents, carers and school staff (where they are able to attend), you will receive invaluable opportunities to share your experiences and pick up some ‘Top Tips’ along the way.

If you would like to attend, but a little worried about making that first step, please just get in touch with me and I will support you with this.

Please remember that this course is for the parents and carers of those children who have already received an Autism diagnosis. 

Have a wonderful half-term break.

Ms Donkin
