Y6 are enjoying music lessons with Mrs Scantlebury from Heworth. They have learnt about rhythm , pitch and musical notation. In addition, useful ways for remembering the duration of notes such as : tea, co-ff-ee and co-ca-co-la.

Y5 and Y6 performed brilliantly during a recent tag rugby tournament held at Joseph Swann School organised by Gateshead Thunder. Both teams came in the top three of the tournament narrowly missing out on playing each other in the final by the slimmest of margins - 1 try. Y6 as runners up progress to the regional finals held at Gateshead Stadium. Miss Sykes was extremely proud of both teams as they demonstrated excellent sportsmanship - a big thankyou to the Captains who were master tacticians - William & Lewis ! http://www.whitemereprimary.org/2011/07/tag_rugby_success.html http://www.whitemereprimary.org/2011/07/tag_rugby_success.html Classes Events Physical Education Year 5 Year 6 Sat, 09 Jul 2011 20:47:58 +0000 Eco week Fun !
