I just had to share this amazing piece of art from a Year 4 student. She has really blown me away with her ability to create texture with shading! @NewSilksAcademy 🎨🖌️

Made my morning seeing one of our Year 4 students so engrossed in a book during play time @NewSilksAcademy #WeAreReaders

My heart in a photo ❤️ merry Christmas to all xxx

Grateful for working with such lovely people @ashblake33 after knowing I had a challenging week this made me smile 💗 Makes all the difference 💗 #team

Year 4 are learning all about fire safety today and how we can prevent fires and be safe around electrical items with Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue! 🔥🛑@Abigail_Lee90 @NewSilksAcademy

@NewSilksAcademy Best of the best ❤️

Year 4 have been looking for mini beasts and identified them using classification keys in Science today! @NewSilksAcademy @elizabeth_arkle #WeAreCurious 🐞🕷️🪱🐛

@dave_mcpartlin absolutely LOVED your talk today @extoltrust just so inspiring and made me feel so proud to be in the profession I am in!

@elizabeth_arkle @Mr_AlmondED @Valda_Varadinek @GOVUK Oh I need to check this! Thank you 🙏

@Mr_AlmondED @Valda_Varadinek @GOVUK @nsa_taylor I know you have some that prefer I pads 🤷‍♀️

So @GOVUK quietly update IT requirements of the MTC… “The MTC will not work on iOS12, or earlier, due to the age and limitations of this technology.” This was not an issue last year. If you have old hardware you will definitely want to check this out.

Some visual note making in our sketch books today looking at the artist Claes Oldenburg. I love the independence I am seeing! Great range of vocabulary and sketching 🖌🎨 @NewSilksAcademy @Mrs_Merrie #WeAreCreative

@HillishStamford @DovForman That is amazing… yes it is the best book I have ever read. It has taught me so much. Just feel so privileged to hear her story 💗

@nsa_taylor @DovForman Totally agree as a grandchild of survivors I have always been fascinated and read many books on the Holocaust but very few have brought the message home like this book! Incredible!

Just finished reading Lily’s Promise. What an amazing and incredible story of survival during the Holocaust @DovForman I have been touched by this amazing woman and her story. It is a must read and I urge everyone to engage in her words ❤️

@NewSilksAcademy @extoltrust My shout out goes to my amazing TA and friend, Jodie. She’s amazing at her job and I couldn’t be more thankful for her x

Year 4 have had a great time today playing dodgeball at @FarringCA this afternoon! @NewSilksPESSPA @NewSilksAcademy 🏐
