Dear Parents/Carers,
I hope the email finds you well.
Well done to the U13 Boys Rugby team who won the Atlas Group Trophy in the U13 County Cup. The school drew against Bede Academy and beat Norham. Dan was the team’s most valuable player with an impressive three try haul in the team’s final match.
Our Yr. 8 team finished third in the Sports Hall Athletics Morpeth & Ponteland Competition. Well done to our Yr. 6 team who finished sixth.
Well done to Katie who played very well alongside her KS2 teammates in a Girls Premier League Football competition that Dr Thomlinson’s took part in on December 7th.
This week the school also entered the Indoor Rowing Local Heats for KS2 and KS3. James and Milly in KS3 recorded personal bests with two creditable fifth place finishes.
30 Yr. 5 & Yr. 6 children are taking part in the Shimmer Dance at Dance City tomorrow evening. The participants are meeting Mr. Heath at Dance City for rehearsals at 3pm and then taking part in shows at 5:30pm & 7:30pm. The children have been putting a lot of work into their rehearsals and we wish them luck with their performances – I am sure they will be brilliant!
Many congratulations to Frankie who has been picked for the Northumberland U13 cricket team.

Dear Parents/Carers,
I hope this email finds you well. It has been a really productive two weeks at Dr Thomlinson CofE Middle School.
Well done to the KS2 football team who took part in the Newcastle United Premier Five a’side competition. The team did very well in finishing third in the competition. Mr. Heath was very impressed with the team which comprised of Kobi; Finlay; Taylor: Oscar; Cerys: Katie; Greg and Isaac
On Monday, 3rd December our U12 boys five a’side team took part in a competition at Northumberland Church of England Academy. The team took part in a number of very close games. Well done to Luke who was our solitary goalscorer-Isaac was our team’s stand out performer.
Let it not be said that we are only interested in football at Dr Thomlinson’s as on December 5th our Volleyball teams took part in a inter school volleyball competition at Chantry. Both teams performed well with Ben and Ellie being especially adept in this Olympic sport. For those of us who didn’t play volleyball,there was a Movie Night at Dr Thomlinson’s. Thank you to the Friends Association for organising this, the film,popcorn and hotdog was much appreciated by all who attended.
On December 6th our KS3 Girls Rugby team played in a Inter School Competition. The team enjoyed victory over Richard Coates with Megan being the team’s most valuable player.
