School Garden news & upcoming sale!

10th March 2016 By traceypearce

Spring is the air and it’s time for all us keen gardeners to get ready for the new season! Before Easter the children will be selling a range of Hyacinths, Daffodils and ornamental plants to help raise money for the school gardening fund. Over the winter we have planted a new fruit garden (courtesy of the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) and Rocket Gardens) and this should see us adding Raspberries, Gooseberries and blackcurrants to the vegetables we already grow. I can’t wait to taste them in a fruit crumble in the canteen! Old plastic pots and seed trays are always welcome too and again a thank you to Dobbies at Birtley for donating their unwanted pots.

This year we are going to try and achieve the highest possible award from the RHS – a level five award for our school garden so it will be all hands on deck! Thank you to all the volunteers who have helped us achieve levels one to four so far by the donation of their time and in some cases their plants for the children to grow and look after. We are looking to further develop the flower boxes at the front of the school at the village site so if you can help or have some spare bedding plants they would be gratefully received. A big thank you also to Sherburn Village Parish Council for their donation of planters which look fantastic with a tremendous display of daffodils and winter plants.

Happy growing and if you need any advice or even have some tips for us then please let us know!

Helping Children in Uganda

3rd March 2016 By traceypearce

Brenda from ‘Brenda’s Promise Kindergarten Uganda’ visited our school on Monday 29th February to tell us all about the schools she is helping to build in Uganda. The children there have no schools or resources and we are going to try and help them by donating books, pens, pencils etc. Our School Council are hoping to organise this at their next meeting.  Take a look at some of the pictures that Brenda brought for us showing how the school had been built and some of the children from the Village who now benefit from the new school:

Here we are in assembly learning about how the children love in Africa and how Brenda is helping them:

We held a raffle at our Reward Assembly and Easter Bonnet Parade to raise money to help the children. We raised a grand total of £50 which was much appreciated. Thank you to everyone who bought tickets.

Mother’s Day Assembly

26th February 2016 By traceypearce

Our combined Mother’s Day and Reward Assembly was a great success! The children looked wonderful in their World Book Day costumes and performed songs, poems and readings which they dedicated to their mothers – it brought a tear to quite a few of the mothers eyes!!  All of the mums were presented with a daffodil as they were leaving.

26th February 2016 By traceypearce

footballOur football team played their first matches yesterday, 25th February.  This  year they are in the Pearl League – Durham Schools equivalent to the Premier!! The boys won one match and lost one (although this was to the top team in the league who have players who play for Sunderland and Newcastle!)  All of our team played really well and their conduct and sportsmanship was excellent.  Well done!!

5th February 2016 By traceypearce

As you may well know, Sherburn Hill & Sherburn Village schools amalgamated on 1st September to become one school.  After consultation with parents, pupils and staff the Governors have met and agreed that the name of our new amalgamated school will be ‘Sherburn Primary School!’ We still need a new logo and to complete the legal process but will be using our new name with immediate effect.
