SPORTS AND P.E.
Fellside children love their sport and their PE!
We have a strong tradition for excelling in many sports and, thanks to our involvement with the Gateshead School Sports Partnership, we have many opportunities to participate in a wide range of competitions, festivals and cluster events in an equally wide ranging number of sports including football, basketball, rugby, tennis, hockey, athletics and dance.
In this section of the website, we aim to share news of our sporting developments, successes in competitions and curriculum developments in PE.
Year 3 Coast Study field trip
The children really enjoyed their visit to Cullercoats. They were real live geographers navigating their way around the coastal town. From testing tides to surveying passers-by they showed they had the grit that geographers need. Well done kids!
Making islands
We enjoyed making our own islands of where we thought Grandad might like to visit. We looked closely at the story to decide what we thought Grandad and Syd might like and incorporated our ideas into our island as well as things we thought were important.

Measuring and comparing
We measured each others heads, feet and hands and collected the data together. We compared whether if we had bigger hands that meant that we had bigger feet or not. We found out that the bigger feet you have generally meant you had bigger hands.
Super Skylines
We have really enjoyed creating our skylines in Art. We created our backgrounds by blending paint. We then designed our own buildings and cut out templates which we then used to print our buildings. Here is some of our amazing work!
