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.

Art
In year 6, we have just finished our Art unit, making Maya masks! We were very knowledgeable of the Maya's as we have been learning about them in geography! In this unit, we learnt why they wore such masks and for what occasions. We then designed our very own mask...
Shadows
We enjoyed learning about how shadows are created and how they change throughout the day. We went outside and drew our shadows at 9am and then compared them to lunchtime and later afternoon to see how and why the length and direction of them had changed.
