During the 2024 autumn term, Film Club has been taking place every Tuesday evening from 3.20-4pm for primary and senior pupils. The pupils have been working on an exciting project with Beamish Museum to create a film adaptation of Charles Dickens' novella 'A Christmas Carol'. The completed film was then screened at the 1950s cinema at Beamish Museum on Wednesday 19th December attended by pupils, their families and some school staff.
You can view the completed film in the Extra Curricular section.
Mams that Move Event
Updated 17th December
Mams that Move Christmas Morning – Tuesday 10th December 2024
We held a Mams that Move Morning on Tuesday 10th December with the support of Erin the Elf from St. Cuthbert's Hospice who also kindly donated some Reindeer Antlers for all of the pupils who took part in the morning. Every 15 minutes two classes came to the hall and took part in a range of dancing activities along with the Mums, female carers and any other female family member who decided to also attend. Everyone had so much fun attending and dancing together with the elf, as we also used ribbons, hand-held musical instruments and scarfs as props to dance along with. Family donations were taken for an extra pair of antlers and this money will be split between St. Cuthbert's Hospice and our own CE program.

They are currently seeking feedback from families as part of a research project, called Transformational Tales, where they wish to gather the ‘voices’ and stories of children and young people who are non-speaking and considered to have severe or profound learning disabilities or autism.
