Welcome to

NCEA Harry Hotspur C OF E Primary School

A note from our Headteacher

Welcome to our amazing Primary School!  We are so proud of our school, our pupils and all they achieve. Our motto – ‘achieving and growing together’ really sums up what we are about at Harry Hotspur and what a special place it is to work and learn. Our children are at the heart of all we do here at Harry Hotspur. We aim to work with you and your child to provide the best education we can, within a caring and loving environment; an environment in which your child can grow as a whole person and develop Christian values.

As a Church school we enjoy strong links with our local parish Church and the Diocese of Durham and Newcastle. Together we believe that the teachings of a Christian faith are as relevant today, if not more so than ever before. This underpins our distinctive ethos and what we teach, how we worship and how we live. We hope our website will give you a window into the life of our school, provide you with the information that you need and promote a supportive partnership between home and school, which is so vital to your child’s happiness, well-being and their educational progress.

Mr J Macfarlane, Headteacher

The children did us so proud today in the nativity! Our wonderful narrators told the story of the birth of Jesus clearly and confidently. All of the children sang beautifully and Amber class looked fantastic in their costumes! A huge well done to our solo singers and a big thank you to Miss ...Phillips for all of her hard work in putting it together! Well done everyone!

Amber Class had a wonderful Christmas dinner on Wednesday! A huge thank you to Karen for working so hard in the kitchen and providing our delicious lunch!! We had a great time pulling crackers, telling jokes and most importantly enjoying our dinner!
