At West Lane, you might have noticed developments on the school field. This is our exciting 'Forest School' Area.

We have used willow and logs to weave a beautiful fence, archway, fire pit area and Dome shelter so far. These will continue to grow and become denser, turning this area into a fascinating wilderness for pupils and (grown ups!) of West Lane to explore and enjoy.

Reception have had a Santa-packed week! On Monday morning they delivered their letters to Santa at Surestart, where he read a fab story about Santa coming to Newcastle. (The one about his visit to Gateshead is still at the publishers!)
The children all joined in with gorgeous singing for Santa. We even heard his reindeer stamping on the roof!

Then in the afternoon, Reception and Nursery had a good old boogie at their Christmas party.

Santa even came to our party too!!

The face painters were ready with some fabulous colours and the crafts were waiting for the glitter and glue. Santa was on his way and would be arriving in plenty of time to get settled in his comfy chair, all that was needed was for the doors to open...

WOW what can I say, people arrived and kept arriving throughout the morning and into the afternoon. They queued for tickets for the tombola stalls, they queued for soup and a hot dog, they even queued for Santa! They made Christmas cards, pop up Santa's and so much more.

They went from plain and very well behaved patient children to Beautiful Butterflies, Disco Queens, Pirates, Tigers and many more amazing creations thanks to our Fantastic Facepainters.

A very big thank you goes out to all those who donated items as without your generosity we would not have been able to hold such as successful event. A huge thank you to those who helped in the preparation beforehand, on the day and especially the cleaning up!

Did I mention is was a successful event......together we have raised in excess of £1500 so far with the raffle prize tickets to be available at the Children's Christmas Shows to be held soon. We will update you with the winning tickets and the final total before Christmas.
