Year 6 girls had a fantastic day investigating all things Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematical. We made fireworks, built bridges, learned how to do CPR and even scrubbed up for some laparoscopic surgery! 

This week we celebrated our sporting week successes, of which there were many!   We also had a number of sporting awards and achievements shared this week. Our children are part of a number of exciting sporting clubs outside of school and hopefully when they share their achievements, other children may become inspired to take up a new sport.    We also had a couple of children share their artistic creations which we always love to see.   Another inspiring week children - well done!

What a great day exploring Beamish to further our knowledge about the Industrial Revolution and life during the Victorian times.

Year 1 had a great time today visiting Northumberland Zoo. The children loved looking at the animals and learning about where they live and what they eat. The children were also so well behaved; we are very proud of them!

We had a super assembly today, celebrating lots of successes.   Year 6 finished their SATs this week and we couldn’t have been prouder of their positive attitudes - they were amazing!   Three children shared their rugby success with us and we are confident they will have many more trophies to show us in the future.    Four children won the Science Poster Competition and were awarded beautiful non-fiction science books which we hope the whole family can enjoy.   We also had our usual fantastic array of ‘show and tells’ including a go kart champion; Lego building super stars, a boxer, a kickboxer and a footballer. Our Westerhope talents really are endless!    Well done everyone!     

#Team Kind @ Westerhope vests were launched this week and modelled in assembly by our wonderful Pupil Committee/Kindness Ambassadors.    The idea is that this lovely group of children will wear them over break times and lunch times whilst being on the look out for acts of kindness around school. They have a supply of special kindness stickers to hand out too.
