Hedworth Lane Choir shine at The Big Sing!

9th July 2025Karen Simpson

Our fantastic Hedworth Lane Primary School Choir recently had the exciting opportunity to

take part in The Big Sing at The Glasshouse in Gateshead – and what a day it was!

With this year’s theme of Zero Gravity, the children sang their hearts out, performing a range of space-themed songs alongside other schools in a truly uplifting celebration of music. The atmosphere was electric, and the joy of singing together in such a stunning venue was unforgettable.

As well as performing, the choir also enjoyed watching a live concert, experiencing the magic of professional music-making up close.

We didn’t manage to take many photos – we were far too busy singing and having fun! A huge well done to all of our talented singers for representing the school so brilliantly. It was a day to remember!

Year 4 Lego Hedz

8th July 2025Karen Simpson

LEGO Hedz Dive into Innovation at the FLL Tournament 2025!

Our brilliant LEGO Hedz team recently took part in the 2025 FIRST® LEGO® League tournament, hosted at The Word in South Shields — and what an incredible experience it was!

As part of this year’s ocean-themed challenge, the team coded their LEGO submarine to explore the depths of the sea, using colour sensors to navigate their underwater mission. Along the way, they even discovered a brand-new species of sea creature to track at their custom-built Underwater Exploration Station!

Throughout the day, the children showcased fantastic teamwork, problem-solving, and resilience. They shared ideas with other teams, swapped tips, and picked up new coding and robotics skills that will stay with them long after the tournament.

We’re so proud of their creativity, collaboration, and curiosity — well done, LEGO Hedz!

Year 5 Story Walk

3rd July 2025Karen Simpson

Year 5 Enjoy Magical Story Walk with The Word’s Graham

Some of our Year 6 children were treated to a magical story walk around the local area, led by Graham from The Word in South Shields. As they explored familiar streets and green spaces, Graham brought tales to life with his animated storytelling and deep knowledge of folklore.

The children listened with fascination as he retold a classic Brothers Grimm story, capturing their imaginations with its twists and turns. He also shared the folk tale The Stag and the Stork, sparking lively discussions about its meaning and message.

The walk not only encouraged a love of storytelling and oral tradition but also helped the children see their local area in a new light—filled with wonder, history, and inspiration. A big thank you to Graham and The Word for such a memorable experience!

Last Friday afternoon, our Year 5 and 6 pupils enjoyed a wonderful Stay and Play session out on the school field – and we couldn’t have asked for better weather! With the sun shining and spirits high, children and families came together for an afternoon of laughter, games and great company.

From sand pits, mud kitchens and football to ice pops and picnics, there was something for everyone to enjoy. It was lovely to see so many parents and carers joining in, relaxing in the sunshine and spending quality time with their children.

A huge thank you to everyone who came along and helped make the afternoon so special – it was a fantastic way to celebrate the end of a busy term!

Class 1 Hancock Museum

18th June 2025Karen Simpson

Class 1 Trip to the Hancock Museum

On Monday, Class 1 enjoyed a fantastic visit to the Hancock Museum in Newcastle as part of our Science topic this term – Evolution and Inheritance.

The highlight of the day was an exciting and interactive workshop all about The Evolution of Humans, where the children explored how humans have changed and adapted over millions of years by looking at replica skulls from throughout the ages. They asked brilliant questions and showed great curiosity about how we connect to our ancient ancestors.

After the workshop, the class explored the museum’s fascinating exhibits. From standing face-to-face with a towering T. Rex, to marvelling at the wonders of Ancient Egypt and Greece, the children were captivated throughout. They particularly enjoyed the sections on animal adaptations and fossils, which linked perfectly with our classroom learning.

It was a brilliant day filled with learning, wonder, and inspiration – and the children were an absolute credit to the school!

Take a look at some of our favourite moments from the day below.
