🐰✨ Our Peter Rabbit Sculpture Revealed! ✨🐰 We’re excited to announce that our school is taking part in Tales on the Tyne, the brand‑new art trail raising money and awareness for St Oswald’s Hospice. Following the fantastic success of Great North Snowdogs (2016), Elmer’s Great North Parade (2019) and Shaun on the Tyne (2023), this year’s trail celebrates the 160th anniversary of Beatrix Potter. From 15th July to 14th September 2026, Newcastle and North Tyneside will be filled with super-sized Peter Rabbit sculptures, inspired by the much‑loved character. Alongside them, smaller ‘Little Peter’ sculptures—designed and decorated by schools and community groups—will form a colourful and creative adventure across the region. ✨ We’re proud to share that we have adopted a Peter Rabbit sculpture of our own! Our children are already busy designing a unique creation that will represent our school in the trail. Thanks to the brilliant support from our community, we’ve already been able to donate proceeds from our sponsored colour run, and we’ll be holding more fundraising opportunities before the trail ends in October—all in support of St Oswald’s Hospice and the amazing work they do. We can’t wait to share our final design with you soon… watch this space! 💙🐇 #TalesOnTheTyne #PeterRabbit #StOswaldsHospice #CommunityArt #BeatrixPotter160 #LittlePeter #Fundraising #SchoolCommunity
Today we celebrate the Feast of St Cuthbert, the patron saint of our school — a man of deep faith, gentle strength, and unwavering compassion. From the holy island of Lindisfarne to his resting place in Durham, St Cuthbert’s life reminds us of the power of kindness, humility, and service to others. Year 1 reminded us in their Celebration of the Word this morning that as our patron saint, he continues to guide our community, inspire our learning, and shape the way we care for one another. May we follow his example today and always. St Cuthbert, pray for us. ✨🕊️
Opal Donation Wow!! What a donation to our outdoor area! We would like to send a huge thank you to Billy and the team at Seaham Marina for the kind donation of Jenny, our new Opal boat. Opal allows the children to explore, learn and let their imagination run wild and we know Jenny will be the perfect addition to our imaginative play once she’s had a little refresh.
Great Athlete Event – Year 6 Wow, what an afternoon! Year 6 had a wonderfully exhausting session with para-athlete Sean Gaffney. They absolutely worked their socks off before ending the circuit session with their buddies. They then listened to Sean’s truly inspiring story in an assembly before having the opportunity to answer questions. A huge thank you to athlete Sean and sports activator Chris for an inspiring and exciting afternoon. Don’t forget you still have time to sponsor Year 6 via the link below or their sponsor form.
Ks1 Fun Fitness Tonight, the children in fun fitness made the most of the sunshine and enjoyed a session outside. They started with a warm-up game before challenging themselves to the obstacle course. Well done everyone!
