The year 3 children visited the Hancock museum to learn more about life in Ancient Egypt. Their engagement and behaviour was outstanding and the children loved the day! They had lots of lovely things to say about it on their return to school. While we were there we were able to recap our learning in other subjects like : science, rocks and soils and fossils, history, stone age to iron age and geography, our local animals life and river.
A huge well done to year three for their responsible attitude to safety, their engagement to learn and their respect for people and objects. Check out just a few snippets of our fantastic day:
We are very proud to share that we have received The FAB Award! Together, with other schools and colleges in South Tyneside, we showcased the amazing work we do in school everyday to promote positive relationships and show kindness in our community. On behalf of everyone at Hedworthfield, our Year 6 representatives did the most amazing job sharing our work. We are gushing with pride that our children were able to speak confidently to a wide audience from schools and colleges to local MPs and representatives from South Tyneside Council.
Today we said goodbye and Happy Retirement to our lovely kitchen assistant. Moira has been serving delicious meals to our children, their parents and their parents for 32 years!
The Choir from Valley View and Hedworthfield came together to sing festive songs to our friends at Calf Close residentiial home.
Well done everyone, you sang beautifully and demonstrated what great citizens you are!
Today the children showed great citizenship, they wanted to help members of our community this winter so they teamed togther with local charity, Hebburn Helps.
The children collected donations of warm blankets and hot water bottles in school, the student council then delivered them to Hebburn Helps who will distribute them to families in need.
Our learning in nursery has been based on the changes in Autumn that we can see and exploring all of the wonderful objects found at this time of year.
Some of the activities have included; making leaf men inspired characters, printing with leaves, counting conkers, going on an Autumn walk and mark making with Autumn colours.
The children have taken part in class elections. They wrote a manifesto and presented their ideas to their classmates. We discussed the UK voting system and British values before attending our very own Polling Station to vote.
The successful candidates were announced by our special guests Cllr G Kilgour and Cllr J Potts.
Well done everyone!
Today our student council planted an apple tree in our Forest School. So we can always remember The Queen’s Platium Jubilee we also placed a commerative plaque next to the tree.
