Thanks for joining us in our Celebration Assembly on Friday. The children have used Google Classroom to access and hand in their work. We have loved seeing their faces in live lessons and it has been great to receive photographs from parents on ClassDojo. Keep them coming and we will celebrate children’s achievements again next week.
Here is a collection of the work produced in each year group:

The Department for Education (Government) have introduced an offer to increase mobile data allowances for children and young people to allow them to access the internet to complete their remote learning.
This scheme is open to children and young people who:
don’t have access to a fixed broadband connection
cannot afford the additional data needed to access educational resources or social care services
have access to a mobile device that uses a participating network
are facing disruption to their face-to-face education, or have been advised not to attend school
Account holders with monthly contracts need to be over the age of 18.
To request extra mobile data, we will need the following information to forward to the DfE:
the account holder’s name
mobile number (a number beginning with ‘07’)
mobile network
whether you pay monthly or pay as you go
If you are eligible to apply simply complete this form with your account details.
South Tyneside LA will only collate this information in order to send to the DfE and will delete the information by 31st July 2021. The DfE are the data handler. The DfE will then pass on your details to the appropriate service provider.
The mobile network operator will use that information to increase the data available for the account holder’s mobile device, as long as you qualify for the offer. If you do not agree to your data being held by the DfE please do not complete the form.
More information about the DfE Privacy Policy
You will be contacted by the service provider within the time stated to confirm that your data allowance has been updated. Please do not contact the school or the LA with queries on this scheme, get in touch with your provider directly if you have any questions.

Year 5 and Year 6 pupils can join Mr Shenton this afternoon at 1.30pm for an excerpt from The Giant’s Necklace by Michael Morpurgo. It is one of five short stories called The White Horse Of Zennor. Each story has a twist that will fascinate young minds. Hope to see you all online.
Year 3 and Year 4 pupils can join Mr Shenton for story time this afternoon at 1.30pm. Today’s story is a picture book from Julia Donaldson. It might seem a little young but it has some deeper meanings for LKS2 pupils to grasp. Hope to see lots of you online.
The joining details are available on Class Dojo.
Year 5 and Year 6 have an extract from Michael Morpurgo on Wednesday afternoon at the same time.
A huge congratulations to the following classes who defeated their year group rivals:
💪 3ST who collected an impressive 15,000 coins in total
💪 4LE who collected a brilliant 10,000 coins
💪 5SC who collected a startling 36,000 coins only 100 more than 5JM.
💪 6SW who collected a remarkable 53,000 coins. Of course, being my class, I wouldn’t expect anything else. Tremendous, guys!
Finally a massive well done to the following children who excelled in their year group, putting in a huge amount of effort and dedication:
⭐️Georgia, Sophia, Leo, Vivienne in Year 3
A new battle will commence on Monday so check this out, have a break over the weekend, and let’s go again on Monday. You will face another class from another year group as it is the winners v winners and runners up v runners up. Therefore, they should be extremely close and competitive.
Well done, East Boldon Juniors!
This year, we were unable to have a live panto but The Customs House stepped up and provided us with a recording of their Christmas Adventure Panto. The children watched it in their classrooms! What a lot of fun! Thanks so much to everyone at The Customs House for doing this for local schools. Wonderful!
Not only that but they sent us all a personalised Christmas message. Don’t watch this Mrs Frank!

We would have loved to put on shows for parents and carers in our main hall again this year but unfortunately this has not been possible at this time. We have tried to give you a flavour of our Christmas Nativity songs with this video. We hope that you enjoy it as much as the children clearly do.
A really timely resource in the run up to Christmas and with all the challenges that we have faced during the pandemic. Please find below self-care messages to parents and carers.
