Today our children welcomed Ms Comerford, founder of Hebburn Helps, to speak in our school assembly. Ms Comerford thanked the children for choosing Hebburn Helps to receive all of the recent Harvest Festival donations.
Ms Comerford told the children all about the people that Hebburn Helps support. Demonstrating great citizenship the children have decided to launch an appeal to collect blankets and hot water bottles to be given to the elderly people in our community to keep them warm this winter.
Our marvelous student council representatives will lead this appeal in school.
Well done everyone!
Year 3 visited the Great North Museum, Newcastle to attend a workshop about Ancient Egypt to start our history topic. They looked at artefacts from Ancient Egypt and matched them to labels and discussed which jobs were important and why? They discovered how mummification was carried out and saw a real mummified person. They liked exploring the exhibits in the museum and reading all about them.
Today Year 6 ambassadors attended the Remembrance Day Service at the Monkton Cenotaph.
The children laid a wreath and displayed some beautiful art work that they created.
We will remember them.
Last week, Nursery enjoyed learning all about the Harvest Festival. We looked at the story of bread, and we were shocked to find some flour had been left for us from Farmer Phil! We decided it was a great idea to make our very own bread, We loved looking at the changing texture as we made the dough, and we learnt how to knead. We couldn’t resist trying our bread once it had been baked, and sharing it with others.
South Tyneside flyer and dates for the year for their mental health parent/carer support group in South Tyneside!
The sessions are aimed at those parents/carers of children and young people who have experienced difficulties with their mental/emotional health and who may have accessed services either now, or in the past, giving parents/carers a chance to meet and develop their understanding on some of the services South Tyneside has to offer.
From Wednesday 4 August, children’s A&E services at South Tyneside District Hospital will change to South Tyneside Urgent Care for Children.
This is a new nurse-led service open from 8am-10pm, 7 days a week.
The expert children’s nursing team at South Tyneside District Hospital will continue treat children from birth up to 16 years for a range of injuries and illnesses which are urgent but not life threatening.
For example:
If you are worried about your child you should call NHS111 for urgent medical advice. In a life threatening emergency call 999.
Please share to help us spread the word.

Today our school council welcomed Jarrow MP Kate Osborne to Valley View.
Ms Osborne enjoyed a tour of the school before entering into a challenging question and answer session with the School Council.
The children did lots of research to prepare for the meeting. They asked about the Women and Equalities Committee, what they could do about climate change, how they could get more money for fun equipment in school and if Kate Osborne MP had ever met Boris Johnson !
The Student Council made a great impression Kate Osborne commended them all praising the excellent selection process the school used to elect school councillors.
We look forward to another meeting soon!
