Invent a Sausage

19th March 2018 By katherinepotts

You may remember the ‘Invent a Sausage’ competition at half term. I am delighted to announce that Holly in Year 5 invented the winning sausage over the whole of the North East. Her sausage was The Christmas Banger.

Holly thought her sausage was best because “lots of people like Christmas dinner and sausages so how about a Christmas sausage called a Christmas Banger”. Holly’s invention has won £300 for school and the sausage will be served as choice on the school dinner menu next Wednesday.

Holly also gets 80 links of her invention to share with her family. We are going to use the £300 to buy wet lunchtime equipment for the children.

 

Well done
Holly!

Escomb goes International

19th March 2018 By katherinepotts

Bienvenido Julio!

I am sure that your children will have told you that we have had a visitor in school this week. Julio Vegas is a Headteacher from Toledo in Spain and will be with us until Friday 17th November. Julio is working alongside me and the senior leadership team to compare school leadership roles in England and Spain. He is also visiting classrooms and working with the children to support their learning of Spanish particularly in Key stage 2 and also to explore the teaching methods that we use here. It is always fabulous to have a visitor from another country in our school; it means that our children get a real insight into another country and culture. The children have loved having Julio in school this week and all are very keen to practise their Spanish speaking with him!

We are celebrated International Schools Week (13th -17th November) by holding our own ‘International Day’ on Thursday 16th November.
Obviously the focus of our day was on Spain! During the day the children worked in Family Groups on a carousel of activities to enhance their understanding and knowledge of Spanish culture. Children dressed in anything red or yellow on this day.
