School Council have been particulary busy this term. Having completed a 'Save Water' campaign they then collected ideas for the refurbishment of the bottom yard. Now they have turned their attention to raising attendance. If you would like School Council to discuss your own ideas, please speak to the councillors in your class. 

Are you ever late for school? These days you could be met at the door by a school councillor who will take your name and list you on the late register. After only one week, we had hardly any latecomers. Remember everyone, school starts at 8.50am.

Keep up to date with School Council activities by reading their newsletter.

Last week, children from years 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 attended heats for the Junior Games 2008. Once again the Carr Hill kids showed what they're made of as they braved the pouring rain. Friends and family cheered them on as they raced on the Northern Fields of Saltwell Park.

Chloe Batey and Cameron Hope ran particularly well. They were asked to represent their team in the NewcastleGateshead Junior Games Challenge at Gateshead Stadium.]]>

During the Summer half term holiday, children from KS2 enjoyed extended schools activities once again. Whilst they revisited activities such as the ski slope, they met some new challenges from bowling to balancing on zip ropes.

Just look at our photos to see what they all got up to.

      <![CDATA[We have been reading together since October. Our buddies come for a fun half hour
reading session where we read together talking about illustrations and the
content of our books. We read a book from the O.R.T and also a book from our
class library. We have shared our favourite books and authors explaining
what we liked about them. Sometimes we play games or find words on a giant
word search. The Year 5 children keep a record of the books we have read
together, they give us lots of encouragement and praise.

Whithaugh Park has become an important part of our school year. Many of our children have visited the activity centre more than once now. The first visit in year 3 is always the most exciting as it is often the first night away from family for many of the children.

As part of our Roman studies we decided to visit Hadrian's Wall. The children visited a museum to gain some background knowledge and generally 'play soldiers' as we tried on costumes.

In the afternoon we enjoyed a tour of the ruins whilst we listened to an Archeologist.]]>

Louisa Phillips describes the first day at Whithaugh park.....

We arrived at Whithaugh Park. We went straight to the rope park and Steven got me really muddy after five minutes. Mr. Harris and Mr. Fowler picked me up and dunked me in the mud.

For tea we had pasta bolognaise. After tea we went into the hall to watch Shrek. Whithaugh Park totally rocks............10/10.]]>
