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

Year 6 football tomorrow after school is cancelled. The pitch is already muddy and very wet with further rain forcast tomorrow. Training will resume after half term.

Emerald class have been looking at the River Aln on an OS map in preparation for our river study day tomorrow. Don’t forget your wellies if you have them!

What an exciting DT week Amber Class have had!! We researched all sorts of vehicles, looking at how they moved. We investigated wheels and axels and thought about how we could attach these to our vehicles. We designed our fire engines, drawing and labelling them, thinking carefully about the ...materials needed to make them. Finally, our designs came to life, we had lots of fun painting them and joining our wheels and axels to create moving vehicles. The best part was testing our fire engines and racing them in the hall!! Well done Amber class!!

Emerald class had a wonderful afternoon at a harvest workshop with the ‘Open the Book’ team. Everyone worked really hard and showed what polite and respectful children they are.
