Children from Valley View and Hedworthfield Primary Schools produced some stunning art work to commerate Remembrance Day 2020.
The art work was placed at the Cenotaph in Monkton Village.
We will remember them.
This half term, Year 3 has been studying the exciting topic of ‘The Stone Age’. We have been to Jarrow Hall and taken a trip back in time. Whilst we were there, we discovered what they ate, how they hunted animals and the sort of houses they would live in. We created our own Stone Age spears and aimed for our targets.
Child Safety Week, 1st – 7th June 2020 – Safety Makes Sense
South Tyneside Safeguarding Children Partnership are pleased to inform you that we will be supporting Child Safety Week again this year.
This year Child Safety Week runs from 1st June until 7th June 2020 and looks very different due to the COVID 19 pandemic. None the less the messages of how to keep children safe from accidents remain the same. Our homes are accident hotspots for younger children which is a scary prospect at the best of times and sadly less traffic doesn’t mean we can completely switch off about road safety.
Throughout the week we will be sharing a range of top tips on how to keep children safe from accidents during lockdown (these can be found on our Twitter feed @STSafeguarding), as well as providing links to some excellent resources from the Child Accident Prevention Trust.
We would encourage you to share the links and resources across your own networks and have attached the 2020 family activity pack.

The “ThinkuKnow” ia an education programme from the NCA-CEOP.
This is a UK organisation which protects children both online and offline.
There are resources on the website targeted at different age groups. Parents/Carers and teachers could use the resource to assist as part of their learning. It would hopefully help keep them safe.

Year 2 studied the Arctic and other cold places during our ‘Frozen Planet’ topic. They learnt about the adaptation of animals, compared the weather and what it is like to live there compared to where they live. They produced some wonderful creative projects.
