Dear Parents and Carers of St Cuthbert’s, Re: Snow Closure Procedures At St Cuthbert’s we take our responsibility seriously to educate and care for our pupils and wherever possible it is our intention to open as normal during periods of difficult weather. We appreciate that closure impacts on children’s learning and parents’ childcare arrangements. However, we also recognise our responsibility towards the safety of children and adults on site and whilst journeying to and from

Year 3 have made a fantastic start to our Performance Poetry unit in English. They have practised working in groups using volume and expression to perform different poems to the rest of the class and will move on to writing their own poems to perform next week!

Year 1 have had a brilliant start to our new school year, getting straight into our new 'China' topic! We loved dressing up to tell the story of 'Mulan' and finding out some facts about China.

Year 2 have loved writing and sharing their hilarious 'Imagine' poetry this week! What a fun way to start the year.

Year 4 have had a great first week back. We used maps to play games, locate different countries and their capital cities, during our Geography topic, Europe.

Y5 had to come indoors for PE this week due to the weather. We had a warm-up session, drills for passing and a small-sided game. The warm-up was intense and we incorporated speed, agility and quickness drills. We learned two ways of passing and how to pivot.

We explored the topic of ‘Winter’ in Nursery. We researched all about different kind of artic animals and had fun playing with them in water and ice. We learned how to make ice and experimented with different ways to melt it. We enjoyed playing in the snow and made a igloo to keep us warm.

Reception and Year 6 loved meeting up this week playing and sharing their news about what they did over the Christmas holidays.

Year 6 had a great last week of term in school ! They enjoyed a Christmas quiz, extra time with their Reception Buddies and a fabulous party lunch and disco! Year 6 have had a brilliant week. They entertained customers at the Toby Carvery on Thursday and residents at Kenton Hall today. They sang and danced brilliantly but a real highlight was sharing cards they made with residents. Well done, Year 6! In dance this week, Year 6 continued to work on their tutting skills and wor

Year 4 had a great time this week, performing for parents and Residents at Kilborne House, as well as enjoying their party day! Have a wonderful Christmas Year 4!

We also loved our Christmas Movie morning. Year 4 investigated how sound travels this week. We used drums, tuning forks and metal hangers to explore dif

The Nursery children put on their fancy clothes and dancing shoes for our Christmas party.  We boogied in the hall to Christmas music, played party games, ate delicious party food and even had a very special visit from Santa.  What an exciting day!  The Nursery staff were very proud of the children when they performed the ‘Christmas Sing Song.’ The children stood beautifully and loved sharing with their families, songs that told the story of when Baby Jesus was born.  We have

Y5 completed their artwork linked to a Starry Nigh By Van Gogh. The narrative changed as we linked this to our RE advent topic and Christmas cards. We hope our families love the results. Merry Christmas and happy new year! Y5 enjoyed their last dance session. We worked in groups to choreograph a cannon and individual aspect of a group dance. Great teamwork! One friend was kind enough to bring their guitar into school and played several snippets of the songs he's been learning
