Welcome to Goat Lees Primary School

Year 6 have been running their 'Waste not, want project' this term. This is to try and reduce the amount of food and plastics from going to landfill sites. If you have any food that you are not going to use, please bring it into school so someone else might be able to make use of it. We have also started branching out to other things such as toys, books and school uniform. If we have anything available, we will be open on Monday and Friday. Thank you for your support.

Well done to Miss Chapman and Year 5 who won Disney's 'Ultimate School Trip' competition! They set sail in August, with their families, for a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. We can't wait to hear all about it September!

Alpine Class went to visit Godinton House to learn all about the importance of bees. They looked amazing dressed in black and yellow and certainly buzzed about the gardens! The children made seed bombs which they will plant in school, when they are ready. We also learnt how bees help to pollinate so many fruits and vegetable which we love to eat. In the afternoon, the chidlren tried four different types of honey back in school and practised being bees! Thank you to Helen at Godinton House who led some fantastic activities for us.

Have a look at some of the photos from the bug house grand opening! Our winner attended with his three friends from his class, they had previously attended a 'bug house stuffing' event at the Singleton Environmental Centre on Wednesday 13th March, where we saw his up-scaled bug house for the first time. There was a cutting of the ribbon to open the bug houses and then lots of photos. Everyone was then taken to the Designer Outlet conference room where, after a short 'thank you' to all concerned, there was pizza for lunch - delicious!
