St. Agnes' Catholic Primary School Crawcrook

The sun came out for our bell boating this afternoon and we paddled all the way across. We all had great fun.

What an amazing event today at The Glasshouse. The choir have worked so hard on their performances and did us all proud. They had the best time celebrating the World Cup and waving their individual flags with other schools from Gateshead. Thank you to our parents for coming along and supporting the children. It really does mean the world to the staff and to the children. 🎶🎤🌍⚽️

‘We had the best time gorge scrambling with Cam’. So lucky with the weather too.

We have arrived! Just having lunch in the YH and then off on adventures with Chris and his colleagues. Well keep keep in touch.

We received some new books requested by the children from the funds parents and careers helped to raise. Attending our book fair last month. Really has helped improve our library. Many thanks again. The next fair will be in October, we will keep you informed of the dates nearer the time.

Thank you to our amazing parent for visiting our school with your ambulance team to educate our children about ambulance services,emergency response and the role of paramedics- the opportunity for each child to sound the siren made the experience especially memorable.

A truly wonderful insight into the life of a refugee during our assembly this morning. Aget, a Syrian refugee, shared his experiences with our children in a video. It was lovely to hear first hand about his journey from Syria to Germany and about his new life with his wife and child. Thank you Mr Macgregor for organising this with our CAFOD club who led us in prayer this morning.

Year 6 showed off their future selves today to finish careers week. Wonderful to see such a range of careers from journalists and writers to stage stars and Oscar winners, engineers, architects, dentists and nurses, future athletes and cyclists and many others.

Year 3 had a great end to careers week today. They came to school dressed as the profession they want when they’re older, and there was an amazing range of excellent jobs on show. In the afternoon they had the treat of learning what it’s like to be an author and editor from Ms Robinson. She told them how to write a short story and edit it, before designing their front cover.
