School from home has been much different than school. Waking up and getting dressed into normal clothes and not having a mad rush getting our uniforms on and getting out of the house. Although it feels different it is calm and silent in the house. Normally I do 1 hour 30 minutes of English in the morning and a Math's test. For exercise me and my sister go on the trampoline and sometimes I run around with the ball. We go on a daily walk around the block with the dog for some fresh air. This has been a different experience from normal life and I hope school reopens soon.

Home school has been a different experience from normal life. So far I have been doing lots of English, Math's and comprehension. My mam has found me lots of interesting things that people have shared on Facebook including a daily Math's lesson, an Art lesson and some video learning from a WW bunker in Liverpool. I have also been out for a walk aroound the local area and have passed a couple of friends doing the same thing. It has taken me a while to get used to this new life and I hope it will end soon.

We are on our 2nd week of home schooling and it is very different compared to school. I am missing my friends a lot and my teacher Mrs Price. I have been doing Math's, Science and History at home with my Mam. I have also been doing lots of new activities like gardening, cooking and crafts which I wouldn't normally do. I am still keeping fit as we do PE every day, starting every morning with Jump Start Jonny! Stay safe. Harrison x
I have been missing my friends and my teacher, Miss Shaughnessy. I have been a little bit confused that Mammy is now my teacher but I am enjoying being at home and learning lots of life skills like making my own breakfast and doing DIY around the house. I am also doing my school work every day which I love to do, along with Jump Start Jonny every morning. Spending lots of time with my brothers has been nice as we normally have such a busy life in and out of school that we never have much time to play together. I am enjoying homeschooling but I am looking forward to coming back to school (hopefully soon) to catch up where we left off. Stay safe. Penelope x
School at home is different and I miss my friends. I'm doing lots of work and hands on activities. I go on my trampoline and on a walk once a day. I miss my school day.

School at home has been a different experience to normal school life but I am still tyying my best with my work. My routine is doing work in the morning and then exercise and fun acivities with my family in the afternoon. For my exercise I roller skate up and down my street but it is not as fun as playing with my friends! Activities I'm doing are board games, arts and crafts and planting sunflower seeds - I hope they grow. One good thing about being at home is spending more time with my pet rabbit. I really miss my teacher, Miss Price so I am praying my school opens again soon.

I am missing my friends and my teacher. I have been doing some homework with the help of my big brother Harley. My Mam and Dad have been giving me lots of fun things to do at home so its not boring. I miss play time with my friends.

It is ok doing school work at home. My Mam has to do work at home too, and she has meetings with her work friends. I am supposed to stay quiet while she talks but today I wanted to say hello to them so I put my face on the screen too! It is very hard work becasue Mrs. Price isn't here with me and its boring without her looking out for me. I miss doing Art and playing out at playtime. I miss my friends, especially Isabelle.

First School Blog Meeting
Today was the first meeting for the school blogging team. We are meeting once a fortnight and we will work hard to create new stories to share with you each time we meet.
On Monday Year 4 had a visitor who taught them about the Normans. He taught us a lot of facts about education and their life styles. At the end of the day we went into the hall with our paper shields and got to march like a Norman soldier. Everybody had loads of fun and this was a great experience.
Joseph
The Change 4 life team have been using their balance skills in their sessions. On Tuesday 19th November they taught Year 4 and Year 3 pupils how to balance on a big beam. This activity looked fun and the children loved learning.

Last week we held a trial to see if we could have school dinners and packed lunches sitting together because for many years we have had separate tables. We were very excited about it at first but by the end of the week we were used to it and it was very good.

During this term Year 6 and Year 5 have taken part in the Coyne league in which different schools from the North East take part in. So far in the league we have won 8 games and lost one. We got an excellent surprise on Thursday when the South Shields football club came in and talked to us about the season. After that they gave all of the children a ticket to get free entry into the match on 30th November. All of the children were excited.
