Year 3 and 4 pupils have had an amazing week at Simonside Climbing Wall. They used the climbing wall and rope swings to build resilience, coordination and balance as well as teamwork. It was great to see the children encouraging their peers and overcoming their worries to feel a sense of pride and accomplishment.
Here are some more photos from our sessions with the Dogs’ Trust. Year 3 and 4 had a great time learning their ABCs
Class 3 enjoyed tasting different seasonal vegetables. They have researched different recipes and will be making a healthy, seasonal soup next week. 
Year 5 and 6 attended a dress rehearsal of Boldon School’s performance of Matilda on Tuesday afternoon. It was amazing to see so many former pupils of Hedworth Lane either taking on a key acting role or being an integral part of the stage crew. The performance was fantastic – well done to all those involved at Boldon School. 
Class 9 have been designing collographs with different textured materials and using them to make different patterns and prints during rain and sun rays topic.
On Safer Internet Day 2024, Class 2 looked at ‘persuasive design techniques’. Did you know that designers use all kinds of persuasive techniques to make us spend our time and money? We learned about streaks that keep us coming back, pop ups that make us think something is urgent and time-limited offers that make us worry about missing out if we don’t act now! We all thought about the ones that affect us and how we can be mindful of them. Well done Class 2!
Year 5 have been practising their dodgeball skills this term in PE and they got to put them into practice at Boldon School today whilst taking part in a dodgeball tournament. What an amazing job everyone did too ! We had two winning teams that walked away with medals – one of which were undefeated champions on the day. Everyone received a special certificate for taking part as well and there were happy faces all around. Well done Hedworth Lane!
Class 5 looked at how technology has changed over time and how these changes have improved our lives. The children completed a task thinking about what they would like technology look like in 20 years time. We also discussed both the negative and positive impact technology has had.
Today we marked Safer Internet Day. Here are Class 1, learning how to be safe on the internet and keep their personal information secure.
