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

Early Years Families - save the date

Preparations are well under way for our stay and play session themed around a Teddy Bears’ Picnic.
We are thrilled to be welcoming the children from Mini Michaels Playgroup and our new families.

Emerald class have been making switches in Science. We are investigating how a switch can complete a circuit and let the electricity flow or break a circuit and stop the flow of electricity. We are the scientists of the future!

Emerald class have had a fantastic day at Glendale countryside day learning all about where our food comes from. Ask your children to tell you all about it. We’ll sleep well tonight!

Emerald class are so excited for Glendale Countryside Day today.
Please remember COATS and WELLIES/BOOTS as it will rain 🌧️

A very special guest is visiting our school this Friday (22nd May) to inspire our children and help raise money for our school!

Professional GB Athlete Lucy Turner is coming to Alnwick to inspire the next generation and to help us raise money where all proceedings will be spent on ...improving our sports facilities.

BUT... Our school could be in for a chance to win brand-new sports equipment from the sponsors of the event, Great Athletes, if we raise enough between us!

Visit our website below to find out how to submit your sponsorship forms and more info about the event.

Good luck to all our amazing Year 6 children in their SATs this week. You have all worked so hard to be here so deep breaths and do your best! We are incredibly proud of you all!

Reception Rubies have been making their very own garden. We have planted the garden with flowers and know we need to give them sunlight and water. we are looking forward to watching them grow. 🌼

Nursery have been singing rhymes using numbers up to 5. We really enjoy 5 currant buns so made our own! There has been lots of accurate counting and investigating ‘how many’ there are. Great (tasty 😋) work everyone.
