Pass it on Parents

12th September 2019Elaine Quinn

Our next coffee morning will be Friday 20th September in the food technology room 10am – 11.30 am.

Pass It On Parents is a great, supportive group.  If you need help filling in forms or applying for grants, this is the group you need.  If you want to know what is available in the area for children with additional needs, we can help with that too.  It’s a relaxed and friendly group and we welcome any parents who need specific support or who just want a cuppa and a chat.  Come along and meet other local parents, make new friends and get great advice and support.

 

Goodbye and Good Luck Class 1a

19th July 2019Jess Burns

Hi everyone,

I am so nostalgic writing this and looking through all their old pictures, they have grown massively in height and personality over the last 10 months. They came from Reception just little bods, all shy and quiet. Now we can’t stop them chatting!

What a wonderful year, we have all absolutely loved it. It has been great watching them progress in all different areas, especially, their communication skills, their physical skills and their confidence has sky rocketed. We have actors, dancers, singers, writers, mathematicians, nurses, shop keepers, animals and many more. Their imagination and creativity is amazing. I have loved thinking of new and exciting ways to keep them engaged and to bring on those skills.

You now have a Year 2 child! Can you believe it? I know they are going to continue to make outstanding progress. Their new teams are such lucky people!

Thank you to all you parents and carers you have been a dream, you all care dearly for your children and are on the ball with their every need. From sending their swimming kit in to sun cream to donations. This wonderful year and all their lovely trips wouldn’t have been possible without you.

Another massive thank you for all our gifts and cards, we are very grateful! It has been a pleasure having your child and I know they will flourish throughout their Hadrian school journey. I will miss them so much and I will be stealing cuddles every day in the quad.

Thank you,

Jess, Michele, Sharon and Katherine

Class 1a

(I thought I would share some photo from the very first term! Look how much they have changed!)

 

What a half term!

19th July 2019Rachael Budden

We have had such a brilliant last few weeks in 6b, the highlight definitely being Activities Week- the smiles on the children’s faces for the entire week were priceless!

To top everything off, our Leaver’s Assembly yesterday was just brilliant and there definitely wasn’t a dry eye in the house!

We have had an absolutely brilliant year with your children and have loved every minute of experiencing them learn and grow.  We wish them all of the luck in the world either at their new schools or in Year 6 at Hadrian.  Have a brilliant summer!

 

The Grand Opening and Goodbye for the Summer

19th July 2019Julia Kelly

Yesterday we had the Grand Opening of the “not yet named” Shed. We have been working so hard to renovate the shed in an inspirational place to work and play and at last it is finished and ready to use. Mr Rollings officially opened it and we all had a glass of sparkling apple juice to celebrate. Everyone made a mark or wrote their name on the blackboard painted wall and we then had a delicious ice cream. We all agreed that it is the best looking shed we have seen.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your support over the past year. We have had a wonderful year full of exciting learning opportunities and are proud of each and every one of our children. We hope you have a happy and healthy summer break and we look forward to watching your children flourish in their new classes.

Babs, Lindsay, jess and Ann.

Family Fun day !

18th July 2019Elaine Quinn

A big thank you to all the staff who worked hard to make the family fun day such a great day!  We had a fantastic turn out and the sun shone.  We were delighted to host Pony Friendship, West Denton Fire Brigade, Nobels’ Amusements and Rides, the Alan Shearer Centre, Community Dental Nurse and many more.

The family fun day is a great opportunity for our families to find out information about local services, socialise with friends old and new and raise money for our wonderful school. Thanks so much for your support, and see you again next year at our 2020 Family Fun Day!

 

Hadrian Happy Hairshop

18th July 2019Elaine Quinn

Another busy day in the pop up hairshop.

The progress some of our most anxious children have made is amazing, now sitting happily without any adult support, huge steps. The children seem to really enjoy the atmosphere.

We bought new equipment for the salon and table and chairs for the new outdoor classroom class 4/5a have been busy with.

Goodbye and Good Luck Hannah

18th July 2019Elaine Quinn

After an amazing year we sad to say farewell to our Teacher Hannah!

We wish her all the best in her new job and we will miss you.

Thanks for a lovely year class 4/5B.

Here comes the summer!

18th July 2019Antonia White

It’s hard to believe that this is the last blog of the academic year 2018 to 2019 – time goes so quickly! However, 5B have had a lovely final week spending time off-timetable.

On Tuesday, we had our summer trip. In the morning, we returned to Saltwell Park in Gateshead to play in the playground. Once we were worn out there, we went for a ride on the Thomas the Tank Engine train that goes through the park. It was really good fun waving at the other people and taking in the scenery – the train also provided a welcome cooling breeze!

After that, we headed to La Famiglia on Whickham View for a delicious Italian meal. Actually, it was more like a feast with how much food we ate! We had garlic bread and chunky chips to start then the children chose pizza or pasta for their main course and we finished off with ice-cream. Boy, were we full up – we practically had to roll onto the bus to get back to school! The staff there made us all feel enormously welcome and they were great with all the children. We felt like a group of VIPs!

It was a great day and a lovely final trip to end our year together.

Everyone on the 5B Team would like to say a big thank you for your support throughout this year and hope you all have a very happy summer break!

 

Our Last Get Together

16th July 2019Julia Kelly

Last week we invited parents, carers, family and friends to come and watch our wonderful shadow dancing. We chose our favourite tracks from “The Greatest Showman” and Richard chose Thomas the Tank Engine theme tune to move to. The moves looked so effective behind the screen and everyone was very impressed. It was also Richard’s 10th birthday so we incorporated it into the afternoon and finished with a delicious caterpillar cake.
