We hold the keys to the future....

Year 3 are enjoying learning all about the Egyptians this term.
They have made Tutankhamun masks for their display and have been working very hard making 3D and clay scarab beetles.

Our Year 3 celebrated their First Holy Communion on Sunday 8th June 2008. The weather was fine and the children were fantastic! Everyone remebered what the day was really about and the children delighted all their families, friends and visitors with the way they read, sang and danced. Well done to all of Year 3 especially Mrs Temple who prepared the children so well! Thanks also to Father Michael and Father Kefa for helping to make the day so special.

Year 3 are looking forward to working with Miss Savoury for the next few weeks. Miss Savoury is a Final Year student from Sunderland University, who will be working in Year 3 for five weeks. After her initial visit to school, she was impressed by the politeness and good behaviour of the children and she is working hard to match names to faces.

The children will be continuing to prepare for First Holy Communion by working through their "I Belong" books with Mrs. Temple. Time is passing quickly and it will soon be 8th June!

Years 3, 4 and 5 enjoyed a lively morning of music led by the Gateshead LEA Specialists Team. The theme was Food. The children throughly enjoyed singing a selection of songs from the Caribbean and traditional Britsih songs and rhymes. The children were invited to join the band and had the opportunity to play a variety of percussion instruments.
Rhythm and melody were the teaching focus of this very enjoyable session.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all those involved for their expertise and guidance.

We hold this event to share all the hard work the children have been doing in class linked to Easter. This year as well as the eggs decorated at home there were cards, candles, pots, baskets, pop up chicks, boxes and much more - not forgetting the wonderful Easter bonnets traditionally made by our Year 6 children.
We opened on Wednesday night and Thursday morning so that as many parents as possible could see the wonderful crafts made by their children. Thank you to everyone who came.

The Easter raffle winners were - Alice Y5, Jack Y3 and Melissa Y2. Congratulations to all!

As mentioned on the website earlier last week, Years 2 & 3 had been invited to attend a 'Singalong morning' at the Dryden centre, organised by Mrs Porter and the music service.
There were 4 other schools involved and a great time was had by all!

This coming Friday, Year 2 and 3 are involved with a Sing - Along day at the Dryden Centre with lots of other schools from Gateshead. This year's theme is songs from home and abroad and we have been practising lots in school to be ready for the day.

It's been birthday week in year 3 with Jack W, Olivia and Darby all celebrating their 8th!

Mr Hearn finished his time with us this Wednesday and Y3 haven't managed to change his mind - he still wants to be a teacher!!

Year 3 are excited about and looking forward to the big Sing-a-long event on Friday. They are sure to do us proud as we can't stop them singing!

Year three have described their teacher Mrs Temple as simply the best! The children love their lessons and always leave school with huge smiles on their faces. Mrs Temple has been teaching at St Peter's for a number of years and is now an expert at creating a creative fun environment for her children. Year three are always completing exciting and interesting pieces of work and are very knowledgable in all areas of the curriculum. They are currently looking forward to making their first reconciliation this Saturday!
