Unfortunately there has been a power cut in school and we have no electricity. We have no choice but to postpone the Choir Concert that was planned for 4:30pm. We will try out best to rearrange the event for later in the week.
Apologies for any inconvenience caused.
Thank you.

What a truly magical afternoon! ✨

A huge thank you to @evpc_seatonholme for hosting today’s beautiful tree-lighting celebration! 🎄

Our school choir shone so brightly, supported wonderfully by the incredible @easingtoncb 🎶🎺

Such a special way to welcome the ...festive season—with our whole community together with hot drinks and sweet treats from @the_northern_bistro … and a VERY special visitor too! 🎅🏼💫

“The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear.” 🎶✨

So proud of our school choir, who started their busy week by sharing Christmas songs with the residents and staff at the local care home — and the smiles said it all.

Voices united, hearts ...connected ❤️🎶

Tiny boots, rosy cheeks, and huge smiles! 🥾🧣❄️

Snow days = pure winter magic. ⛄️✨

Remembrance Day Service 🌺

Finally, a huge thank you to @evpc_seatonholme for inviting us to join them for their Armistice Day Service.

It was truly heartwarming to see so many members of our community come together to remember and reflect on the bravery and sacrifices of those ...who served.

As always, our children observed the two minutes’ silence impeccably — we could not be more proud!❤️

Remembrance Day - Part Two 🌺✨

Our KS2 children took part in a fascinating, in-depth study of the War in County Durham.

Pupils explored real stories of brave men and women from our local area who served their country — using original archives and historical objects to ...uncover the past.

Our Year 3/4 children learned all about a courageous princess spy named Noor Inayat Khan, while our Year 4/5 children were thrilled to discover that we have our very own air raid shelters right here in the school grounds!

Year 6 took time to reflect on their recent trip to The Heugh Battery in Hartlepool — the only First World War battlefield in the UK.

What an inspiring way to remember, reflect, and learn. ❤️🌺

Remembrance Day - Part One ❤️🌺

Our EYFS, Year 1 and Year 2 classes were lucky enough to welcome the lovely Emily from The Story Durham into school for a special Remembrance workshop.

We learned all about Dennis Donnini — a brave soldier from Easington and the youngest ...person to be awarded the Victoria Cross during World War II.
The children explored different historical sources and even had the chance to handle some fascinating artefacts!

We rounded off the day with some beautiful, Poppy-inspired artwork to help us remember and reflect. 🌺✨

💥 Remember, remember the 5th of November… 💥

This week, Year 2 met Guy Fawkes and discovered the story behind the Gunpowder Plot. From handling artefacts to interviewing the infamous plotter, the children brought history to life! 🎇

Meanwhile our Year 1 children have been... learning all about sparkler safety! 🎆

If you are going to a fireworks show or doing sparklers in the garden, please stay safe and remember to follow the Firework Code. ✨
