A wonderful start to Kindness Club today! We have been very busy getting prepared for World Kindness Day designing posters ready for Friday! We also listened to a 'mindful moments' podcast  together to help us feel nice and relaxed. What super stars you all are!

As part of their Design and Technology, year 3 investigated, designed, made and evaluated savoury tarts.    The children were given the task to design and make a savoury tart using seasonal ingredients for the four seasons restaurant.    They investigated ingredients that are currently available in the UK in Autumn and taste tested them to chose the ingredients for their tart.    They designed their tarts using a design criteria, which included using different coloured ingredients and ingredients that complement each other.    The children made their savoury tarts and evaluated by tasting them. 

This week, Year 6 took a trip to Studio West to make some delicious beef tacos to enhance our Geography unit on North America! Who knew we have some excellent chefs who could cook Michelin Star meals? 

We joined the Great British Skip movement alongside other schools in the UK by taking part in skipping challenges throughout the day and putting Westerhope Primary School on Krish’s kindness map! Well done everyone and a huge THANK YOU for all of your donations and kind messages.

Well done to the children in Aquila, who have ended the year with the most house points!   They were treated to a reward day and took part in robotics, textiles, art, games, drama and water fun!   We hope you had lots of fun Aquila and well done for achieving the most house points across the school.

Ammar Mirza CBE, High Sheriff of Tyne and Wear awarded Westerhope Primary School with an award in recognition of dedicated and valuable service to the community.    We are very proud!
