A huge well done to Holly in Class 3/4, who recently took part in a football tournament in Gateshead. She showed fantastic effort and determination throughout the competition, and her team finished in the top three — an amazing achievement!
We were thrilled to welcome the Trust’s Media & Marketing Team into school as part of the Bishop Hogarth Media Correspondent initiative. It was an exciting opportunity for our pupils to learn more about reporting, storytelling and the important role of communication within our school community.
Today, our Year 5/6 children took part in a beautiful creative prayer activity to begin their Lenten journey.
