On Tuesday 18 July we had the emotional Leavers’ assembly for the children. They all presented their own special memories of their time at school. In addition they were presented with awards from Miss Mawson. The afternoon culminated in the children singing a performance of their own rendition of One Last Time, which they rewrote about their experiences of school. It was a very poignant and moving afternoon, the year 6 children should be exceptionally proud of themselves. They have achieved great things at our school, well done to all of you!

Class 2 have been reading the book Flat Stanley, getting to know the character and following his adventures. Class 2 have made their very own Flat Stanley with a tasty twist, they have followed step by step instructions on a recipe in order to weigh out ingredients and make Stanley shape biscuits which they then decorated and ate!

Our Celebrations Trophy Assembly was a brilliant occasion that celebrated the fantastic achievements of our pupils. Children from Key Stage One and Key Stage Two received trophies for their outstanding work across the academic year.
We also had a special visit from Chris Affleck, Investing in Children. Chris came along to our assembly to present our pupils with the Investing in Children Award, following his visit a few weeks earlier when he met with our School Councillors. A massive well done to our School Council for providing everyone in your school with a voice.
We would also like to say goodbye to Miss Thompson. Miss Thompson spent a year with us at Tow Law Millennium and we would like to wish her the best of luck in her future teaching career.
Our assembly ended with a fantastic performance from our X Factor winner.

Nursery Sports Day
A huge well done to all of the Nursery children who participated in the Nursery Sports Morning. A big thanks also to the parents who supported them in their activities. Lots of fun was had by all!
Reception Graduation
What a lovely day for a graduation in our outdoors! The children in Nursery and Reception thoroughly deserved the awards they were given and the Early Years Team would like to wish Reception all the best as they move into Year 1!

All our pupils attended an assembly with Chris to review everything they have learnt in the inspire workshops across the year. They enjoyed hearing Chris speak about his experiences and linking these to their own.

Some of our KS2 pupils were very lucky because Chris attended their usual Monday swimming session. It isn’t every day you have a Commonwealth gold medal winner at your swimming lesson!
Unfortunately due to rain and damp ground conditions, our sports day was unable to happen as planned on Monday 10th September. But we are very lucky that Chris has agreed to come back in autumn term to attend our rearranged sports day on Thursday 14th September.
Violinists
Our violinists performed for us in assembly on Wednesday 5th July. They showed off their musical work that they have been developing all year. They performed ‘Paganini’ and ‘Violin Star’. Well done girls, you were fantastic!

Our Year 1’s and 2’s visited Burnhill on Tuesday 4th July (otherwise known as the wettest day ever!).
The children came into school very excited about their trip, despite the hideous wet weather outside! They remained eager and enthusiastic throughout the whole day, despite the rain not stopping once!
They enjoyed making parts to go into the ‘Bug Hotel’ and then moved on to weave on the willow sculpture (which they were very disappointed was not finished yet as it would have provided a cover from the rain!).
In the afternoon, we enjoyed pond dipping and caught many different types of pond life.
Thank you to Mr Bell for a fantastic day of outdoor activities. The only complaint of the day from the children was that Miss Dobson had not done her job of booking nice sunny weather for Class 4’s visit!

On Thursday 22nd of June, a number of Year 4, 5, and 6’s attended a cricket competition at Hunwick Cricket Ground. All the children put their newly found batting, bowling and fielding skills to use and a special mention needs to go out to Callum, who despite never having played cricket at school before, was able to bowl accurately and even managed to get spin on his ball. All the children worked fantastically as part of a team, encouraging each other the whole time. Overall, our teams came a modest 4th and 5th. A huge well done to all those involved.
Durham Cathedral and Saints – British Values Day
On 30th June 2017, the whole school looked at Durham Cathedral and local saints as part of our British Values celebration days.
The children learnt about the history of Durham Cathedral and its role within Durham City today. They learnt about St Cuthbert; his life and his work. Some of the children also did art work linked to the Rose Window in Durham Cathedral.
