Cancer is happening right now, which is why our school is holding a Race for Life to raise money and save lives. 1 in 2 of us will get cancer. All of us can support the research that will beat it. Cancer Research UK’s determination to beat cancer hasn’t faltered and they’re more focused than ever on our ambition of seeing 3 in 4 people survive their cancer by 2034, so please sponsor us now and help fund life-saving research.

Dear Parent or Carer,
It´s great to get children enjoying the benefits of physical activity outdoors, but it is also important that they are protected from the harmful effects of the sun, especially sunburn.
Further to this, we are proud to announce that we are now Sun Protection Accredited, and will be following guidelines from the Outdoor Kids Sun Safety Code.
Please see attached for our sun policy with the actions we pledge to implement this summer. Please ensure that your children arrive prepared for our sessions. If you need to discuss individual requirements or medical issues, please contact us via the usual channels.
Thank you in advance for your support.
Visit www.melanoma-fund.co.uk for more information on how to enjoy a SAFE, healthy, active life outdoors.

Thankyou to colleagues at Ponteland High School who have shared their Y11 revision website. Students/Parents can access this website and find all the pointers, tips and advice that we share with students.
Does a child you know ever feel lonely when they’re online? In a study by the UK’s Office for National Statistics, 14% of 10–12-year-olds said that they DID often feel lonely – so any child experiencing those feelings is, sadly, far from unusual. To support Mental Health Awareness Week – which this year has the theme of ‘loneliness’ – we spoke to a group of children and teenagers, who told us some of the things that make them feel isolated when they’re online. They also suggested some ways they use technology to make themselves feel better when that happens, and we’ve compiled their ideas into a loneliness-busting #WakeUpWednesday guide.
In the guide below, you’ll find tips such as taking breaks, playing single-player games and listening to your favourite audiobooks.
Can’t wait for Y7 to have their first face to face parent/carer evening.
See you soon.
