GOODBYE MR. TRAVES

This week we also say goodbye to Mr. Traves after three years with us, who leaves to take up a teaching post in Durham. Mr Traves has led by example, dedicating his time to increasing the number of sporting opportunities our children have been able to enjoy. We'd like to thank him for all his inspiration and hard work -he has become an invaluable and much appreciated member of our team and we will miss him.

NO HOLIDAYS PLEASE-

Please avoid taking term time holidays leading up to and during the following weeks:

Year 6 Sats in 2020 will be in the week beginning 11th May

Year 1 Phonics Screening Check-Week of 10th June

Term time holidays negate all the interventions we provide in school. During a 2 week holiday your child will miss (at least) 10 English lessons, 10 maths lessons, as well as the wider curriculum.

Yr 6 Leavers' Production

Last week, we were all treated to our first Yr 6 Musical Leaver's Spectacular. Guided by Mrs Houston, Yr 6 rose rose to the challenge of a very demanding script to bring us a wonderful show. This was followed by our amazing Yr 4 choir performing  at the Summer Streets festival in Seaburn on Saturday. There wasn't a dry eye in the house.
