We are an inclusive school in which adults share the highest expectations of all children. Across all areas of learning, we endeavour to build upon the children's individual personal strengths in order to allow them to fulfil their potential. We want every one of our pupils to believe in their own success, through the promotion of self-belief and determination.

Latest News from Wardley

Year 6 Hockey Year 6 have settled back into school really well and have made a fantastic start to the new term. This term, we are working with the Newcastle United Foundation in our P.E. lessons to develop our hockey skills and deepen our understanding of the game. Today, we practised how to hold the hockey stick correctly, dribbling and passing skills before putting everything into practice during some mini matches. The children worked brilliantly as a team, showing great support and encouragement towards each other. Well done, Year 6!
A New Year in Nursery Over the last two weeks we have welcomed lots of children into Nursery. Some children returned to us after their six weeks holiday and some started our Nursery for the very first time.
The Star Suite Street The theme is Miss Oliphant's class this week has been “Our homes and families.” The children have been taking part in a range of creative activities linked to the theme including building homes using construction kits, drawing members of their family and engaging in role play in the home corner. The staff have been particularly impressed at the children's creativity and focus in their art task which took them 4 days to complete. They made a mixed media picture of their house which involved applying their skills of painting, printing, drawing and cutting. The pictures have been displayed in the classroom in our Star Suite Street and they look fantastic!
Reception Handwriting Skills In Reception at Wardley Primary, children begin developing the foundations for handwriting through fun, purposeful activities. At this stage, the focus is on building strong fine motor skills, good hand control, and confidence with mark-making. Children practise using a range of tools such as pencils, crayons and paintbrushes, while also learning how to hold them comfortably and steadily.
Year 3B Gymnastics The Year 3B class have been enjoying their gymnastic lessons since the start of term. They have been developing their balancing skills on different pieces of equipment. It has been lovely watching them be creative and working together to come up with lots of different poses and positions whilst remaining balanced.
Year 5 learn to surf The Year 5 children had a wonderful day learning how to surf at South Shields beach. We were lucky to go on such a beautiful day. The children all thoroughly enjoyed the experience and it was amazing to see so many of them managing to stand up on the surfboard. The children demonstrated resilience, perseverance and the ability to take risks and be willing to fail. A huge thankyou to all the parents/carers who helped us on the day - your support is much appreciated.
