Our student ambassadors would like to challenge the whole school to a ‘finger spelling challenge’. We are asking children to learn the sign the alphabet and record themselves and share with myself [email protected]
Our lovely ARCHII team will be the judges and we will have one winner per year group. The winners will each receive an easter egg!
Please find the resources below to help you with this challenge! Good luck everybody!
As part of their Expedition ‘Once Upon a Time’ Green Top have had some beautiful displays created for their reading areas in Nursery and Reception!
Staff Days across the XP Trust
All our staff were getting their heads together and planning for next term’s Expeditions last Friday and Monday – lots of exciting learning and products are on the horizon for students in term 3!
As with all of our Expeditions, students will work within one of our three curriculum seams and staff will do the project first! If it’s good enough for our kids, it’s good enough for us!
Passage Presentations at XP Gateshead
This week, G28 were the first year at XPG to complete their ‘Passage’ – these are presentations to a panel where they reflect on their learning journey, discuss examples of their work, and talk about how they are prepared for next steps in learning and GCSEs.
The quality of the “passage” presentations @xpgateshead as year 9 pupils discuss their learning journey and character growth in front of an invited panel has been outstanding – a real privilege to be part of this process @XPtrust pic.twitter.com/iscK4W8SMS

Years 3 and 4 became activists and walked around our local area spreading their message about the need for change before it is too late for the polar bears of the Arctic!
What do we want? CHANGE!
When do we want it? NOW!
Polar…BEAR!
Polar…BEAR!
We really appreciated the beeps from the cars and the bus that passed us, thank you!
You have placed a small piece of the jigsaw down, Year 3/4. Feel proud of yourselves and keep adding another piece by turning those lights off (or games consoles and TV screens most likely) when you head downstairs for tea. Together, we can all make a difference!
The posters that were produced for our peaceful protest are more than amazing! Everyone was totally engrossed in what they were doing and felt incredibly motivated to produce beautiful work because it had true purpose…well done everyone!
This week we have been learning about the composition of numbers and today we have been making 7 in different ways. The children used Nuimicon and cubes as part of their indoor learning.
During outdoor play they played a game with a hoop and 7 bean bags. They had to say how many were in or out of the hoop and the equation that matched. They were very competitive!
Thank you again to all who have donated and bought tickets. With just under two weeks to go until we draw we are just £80 away from our target. Can you help us achieve the £500 mark? Tickets are on sale every day at £1 a strip!
