Parents That Paint Morning
Posted 30th January
On Tuesday 28th January we welcomed our parents and carers into school for a lovely morning of art activities. With this day being International Lego Day this was a perfect theme for our pupils and their parents and carers to enjoy being creative together. The resulting art work is inspirational and we would like to thank everyone who attended, including Craig Williams from Durham County Council to support and talk to our Dads and Male Carers specifically.
We have produced a video from the event for you to enjoy.
You can view a video of the event in our News & Events section.
Holocaust Memorial Video
Posted 27th January
Some of our pupils have created a video to mark the 80th anniversary of the Holocaust in remembrance of the 6 million Jews who lost their lives during WWII. Pupils held up words to describe the Holocaust which were then made into a film which will be played at the Empire Theatre in Consett as part of a Holocaust Memorial Workshop.
You can view the video in our News & Events section.
