We are absolutely thrilled to share that we’ve achieved the Platinum OPAL Award! We are immensely proud of this achievement. A very special thank you to Mrs Lennon and Miss Scott for all their hard work. Your dedication has made this possible. #Opal

We are incredibly proud of our pupils who performed a prize-winning rap written by Y5 tonight at the Schools Sports Partnership Awards evening at the Fed Brewery. It incorporated the themes of Friendship and Sport, and they performed wonderfully on the big stage.

@VEXRoboticsUK Amazing work 👏👏

It's been 1 week since the VEX IQ Closing Ceremony! Join us in sending massive congratulations to all of our VIQRC Teams who smashed it at #VEXWorlds 🙌 They did a fantastic job in representing their schools, communities & the UK! We hope they had an amazing time in Texas ✨

Today we marked #VEDay with flag-making, 1940s dancing, and family memoirs. Pupils explored their histories & shared stories from relatives. A huge thank you to the grandparents who joined our special assembly! #LestWeForget facebook.com/share/v/12Hstm…

Our school choir singing a song written and produced by our very talented music teacher, Mrs Kitson in honour of Remembrance Sunday. The lyrics are inspired by ‘For the Fallen’ by Lawrence Binyon and ‘In Flanders Fields’ by Captain John McRae. #RemembranceDay2024

Today, four of our school councillors got to meet Prince William. It was lovely he took the time to speak with the children #royalfamily

@VEXRoboticsUK Looking forward to the new season.

Congratulations, Alfie! What an amazing achievement to win the #GreatNorthRun Mini Great North Run today! We're all so proud of you. Well done 👏

Year 6 have been amazing in their end-of-year show. Their singing and acting were superb, and the KS2 choir members were a fantastic Chorus supporting them. A brilliant way to end their time at Bill Quay 🎶 We were extremely proud of them all!

Day 1 of sports weeks

Our sports weeks has kicked off with Year 2 & Year 3 @theurbanfactory Hebburn doing Parkour. Lots more to come.

Year 5 children were invited to Durham City Hall to join in the #Technext festival for schools! The challenge was no small feat – they had to come up with a innovative tech-based solution to tackle a real-life problem Three groups from our school made it to the shortlist. Go BQ!

A massive thank you to Bill Quay staff, Bill Quay Joinery and Nissan for all of their help! Everyone has worked so hard to help us get Opal off the ground....I'm sure you will agree our school is starting to look pretty impressive 😁

A massive well done to our 3/4 football team. They played so well together tonight and have qualified for the finals next week! Absolutely smashed it!! ⚽️

@PsychiaAlex It was great to see you, albeit it was brief. Looking forward to the new season.

Being a judge advisor at VEX worlds for the third year in a row was amazing. We saw so many talented teams from all over the world. Can't wait for next season! (After a restful break) I hit 201k steps over the entire event

Great success today for our gymnasts in the Gateshead competition. All four teams came away with medals. The gold-medal winning teams will go on to represent Gateshead at the Tyne and Wear Games later in the term. We are so proud of them all!

@vextanfield @dyer_eng @NorthEast_STEM @ReeceSTEM Good luck Team Tanfield. We’re routing for you.
