• Year 3 Newcastle Tour

  Wed 11 Mar 2026

  Year 3 travelled on the public bus to take part in an exciting tour around the beautiful sights of Newcastle upon Tyne. 
   

  The children visited places like Grey’s Monument, Grainger Market and St James’ Park. 
   

  They used their map skills to locate all of the places they visited. 
   

  Back at school the children are going to write their own tour guides about Newcastle. 

  

• Celebration Assembly

  Fri 06 Mar 2026

  Another super Friday assembly! Class 8 dazzled us with their singing and dancing and the recorder club even played us all into assembly which was an excellent start to the day. 
   

  We had a gymnast, dancer and Lego builder sharing their successes and one of our Year 3 children earned their bronze music merit badge. 
   

  What an excellent end to the week. Well done Westerhope! 

  

• Our Football Team

  Fri 06 Mar 2026

  Yesterday the children played their final matches in the Duffy League. The children were the perfect example of what our Westerhope children are: kind, supportive, determined, resilient and role models. We saw impressive footwork, speed, persistent tackling and some superb saves in goal. 
   

  We are very proud of you, well done!👏
