We've had a great day here at New Silksworth Academy celebrating World Book Day. Our children have used cardboard tubes to create their favourite book characters! #WeAreCreative #WeAreReaders

It’s all happening at our toddler group this afternoon. We’ve changed the day and time to Thursday 1.30pm - 3.00pm so why not come along and join in the fun.

Children in our 2 Year Old Provision enjoy making their own choice of healthy snack each day. Children are supported to ask for the snack they would like, and they always have beautiful manners using please and thank you.

Year 4 have had a great day looking at the human and physical features of Sunderland on our fieldwork walk down the River Wear and exploring states of matter at The National Glass Centre.

It has been fantastic welcoming back our patron of reading Adam Bushnell to work with groups of our children in Year 4 and Year 2 today. #WeAreInspired We are looking forward to tomorrow!

Today we invited our Year 2 children's grown-ups into school for a lovely creative session. We had so much fun working collaboratively to construct buildings for our own Puddling Lane. If you know your history, then you'll know what's next for Pudding Lane.

The children had a great time at the Life Science Centre. Lots of exploration, questions asked and fun had and now lots of very tired children.

This morning we followed the Nursery childrens line of curiosity from Sharing a Shell to Storms at Sea to Weather and Lightening. We enjoyed exploring a plasma ball and could feel the energy as the light gently tickled our fingertips. 

KS2 science club succeeded in making (and eating) cheese. Exploring states of matter and irreversible changes today.

We had the pleasure of welcoming Andy and Jack from ADC Electrical today. He provided support and guidance to our children at Engineering Club for their Primary Engineer rail project. Thank you!
