Show Racism the Red Card

4th November 2016L Dickinson

IMG_2351 (3)Show Racism the Red Card, the UK’s anti-racism charity, have been in school this week working with Year 5. They promoted a message of understanding by using the high-profile status of football and football players to help tackle racism in society. All four classes took part in a range of workshops that aimed to:

  • Educate young people about the causes and consequences of racism and to explore the various forms racism can take.
  • Empower young people to challenge racism in the communities in which they live, providing them with relevant knowledge and information to enable them to do this.
  • Help young people prepare to play an active role as citizens in an IMG_2336increasingly multi-cultural society.
  • Enable young people to develop good relationships and respect the differences between people, regardless of their ethnicity, faith, culture or nationality.

Feedback from the children showed that they had all learned some valuable lessons from the day and we will be doing some follow up work in class to reinforce the messages learned today.

Kids’ Lit Quiz

Chantry A contesting a tie break with 8 other teams.

Chantry A contesting a tie break with 8 other teams.

The NE regional heat of this national competition was a closely fought and extremely tough contest. Each of the top five teams was separated by just half a point and every round went to a tie breaker.

With rounds on Captains, Cannibals, Cutlery, Cars, Comics and cartoons, not to mention Furniture, Hobbies, Rodents, Babies and World War 1, it was hard to predict our strengths and this cost us valuable points, as scores are doubled on the joker round.

Seriously, can you think of ten literary references to cutlery…?

Nevertheless, our teams performed magnificently and should be proud of their richly deserved scores of 65 and 71, which were very close to those of Newminster.

Guide Dogs UK

2nd November 2016Mrs K Shutler

IMG_0152Earlier this year, we had a visit from Ellie and her owner Mrs Wilson. Mrs Wilson is a volunteer for Guide Dogs UK which is a charity for the blind and partially sighted. Year 8 had an assembly which explained more about the charity and the work Guide Dogs do all around the country. 7M took part in a classroom based workshop where they got to meet Ellie, a golden retriever, and hear all about her story and how Mrs Wilson became Ellie’s owner. We are looking forward to welcoming Ellie and Mrs Wilson back into school to do workshops with the other Year 7 classes throughout the year.

Apple Store Workshop

2nd November 2016J Edwards

IMG_20161020_131501851Year 7 students visited the Apple store in Newcastle to do two workshops as part of a field trip. The students used iPads in the workshops and got the chance to use Tynker and Sphero. Tynker is a free app that allows children to learn how to code. Students used visual blocks and saw how they could progress to text-based coding if they revisited the app after the workshop. Sphero is a robot that the children were able to program. They calibrated the Sphero first and were able to control the Sphero around the store, have races, change the colour and even make them jump! All students had a great time and got a free memory stick. Apple are also going to send them a t-shirt as they were out of stock at the time we visited the store.

Wansbeck Valley Foodbank Donations

20th October 2016L Dickinson

20161020_091205This Harvest, we set up a Food Drop Off Point to collect items in support of the Wansbeck Valley Food Bank. Wansbeck Valley Food Bank is a local charity set up to help prevent and relieve poverty or financial hardship by providing food parcels from donations they receive.

The excellent work of the food bank can only continue with the generous support of local people and businesses, so we would like to say a huge thank you to all the pupils and staff who donated non-perishable food items. Sean and Linda from Wansbeck Valley Food Bank came to collect the items this morning and were so impressed by the large quantity of items Chantry Middle School had collected.

20161013_165922_resizedIt was a fantastic show. Lots of amazing effects and magical moments. All your favourite songs were sung and it was lovely to see the Chantry students all joining in singing and clapping along. Everyone had a thoroughly enjoyable time.

Other theatre goers commented how well the Chantry students behaved throughout the performance and how they were a credit to the school.

¡Hola! Guten Tag!

7th October 2016L Dickinson

mex (Small)Opening evening this year in the languages department had a new flavour to it.  Our young Germanists and Hispanophones offered up a tasty selection of continental treats to anyone who passed through our doors.  However, there was a catch involved – they had to have a conversation in German or Spanish first!

“I am really enjoying learning Spanish in Year 7 as it is a completely new language for me.  I spoke to so many children and adults on the night – all in Spanish!  I loved trying out the foods myself too.”  Ebony, Y7
