**** SPECIAL DELIVERY ****
We are super excited to be working with and helping support RedSky Foundation!
We have just taken delivery of our clothing re-cycling bank to help raise funds for Red Sky Foundation.
As a school we will be fundraising to help the charity achieve their aim of providing life-saving defibrillators in our local community. At Benedict Biscop we are fortunate to already have a defibrillator on site, but the children in school were concerned that this is only available to the wider community during the school’s opening hours, what if a member of our community needed help during the times the school was closed?
We will hopefully be raising money to be able to put a defibrillator outside of the school gates This will be available to members of the public, 24 hours a day, to use in the case of a life-threatening emergency.
Please help support us and Red Sky Foundation by using the re-cycling bin.
The Rights Knights will also be in touch with more fundraising events. 💙

👀👀 NEW TERM = NEW THEME 👀👀
Classes across school have begun exploring their new theme.
Year 1 are exploring "Light and Dark: Living in Victorian Sunderland "
As part of this they will be exploring the life during the Victoria period, recognising similarities and differences between life today and in the past. Children will learn about the light and sunlight, studying
contrasting localities.
This week children have been exploring the Northern Lights, researching the natural phenomena and creating pastel representations. 💙

As part of our weekly Maths Meetings, Year Two have been playing a selection of games to challenge their mathematical knowledge, vocabulary and general thinking skills.
Games included dominoes, place value matching and bingo. The children had a lot of fun and enjoyed the healthy competition!
🎲 Card, board games and dominoes are a great way to develop a range of mathematical and thinking skills- do you dare challenge your child to game? 💙
