The children and staff taking part in the Joe Wicks challenge.  They worked really hard and had a great time!

Recently, the School Council met with a gentleman called Graham Whitehead. He is the project manager for our School building.

As you know the school yard is currently under repair and the School Council decided it would be a good idea if some of the surface could be replaced with Astro turf. They asked the other pupils in school for their opinion by issuing a questionnaire. The majority of the school thought it would be a good idea.

Today the School Council delivered a presentation to Graeme around this idea and some of the work they have done towards it. He was very impressed and is going to discuss this with the rest of his team and get back to us. Fingers crossed.

Watch this space!……

Last week Laygate Community School Choir performed twice in the local community.

On Tuesday 10th December they visited St Jude’s church and entertained some elderly residents whilst they had afternoon tea.

The Choir was very lucky as they were also treated to an afternoon tea themselves.

On Thursday 12th the Choir marched down to ‘The Word’ in South Shields marketplace and
entertained family members and the general public. They had a fantastic time and sang
their hearts out.

Well Done Choir!

Children are invited to wear yellow on Thursday 10th October for a donation of £1.  This is to
