Dear Parent / Carer,

It has been a really busy week at Dr Thomlinson Church of England  Middle School.

Drama Club Performance

Thank you to our Drama Club who – led very ably by Martha, Izzy and Elsa –  performed a play the club had written and directed to children at Harbottle First School on Friday, March 24th.

The members of the club all performed with great enthusiasm in costumes that they had designed themselves.  I especially enjoyed Emily’s interpretation of the Grinch – her performance defined the role.

The Drama club has written another play which we have scheduled to be performed to another First School soon after the Easter holidays.

Yr 8 Boys Rugby Sevens

Well done to our eight player squad who took part in the Yr 8 County Sevens Rugby event on Thursday, March 23rd.  The team played 7 games in a round Robin format, winning 2, drawing 1 and losing 4. All played really well and were a credit to the school.  All concerned were very impressed with the team’s performance and conduct.

KS2 Boys Football team

Well done to the KS2 Boys Football team who were unlucky to lose to a strong Tweedmouth side on Monday.  Josh scored Dr Thomlinson’s goal in a 1-5 defeat.

Easter Church Service

Our Easter Church Service is on Thursday, March 30th at 1:30pm at All Saints Church, Rothbury.  Parents & Carers are very welcome to attend.
