Dear Parents/Carers,
It has been a short but busy week at Dr Thomlinson CofE Middle School.
Coronation Celebration
Today we had a lovely afternoon where we celebrated tomorrowâs coronation of King Charles III with a range of Coronation themed activities. Children designed their own Coronation emblem; fashioned their own crown out of willow: took part in a Coronation escape room activity; wrote their own Coronation acrostic poem and took part in their own investiture activity. We also came together to celebrate the Coronation with cake and juice whilst having Coronation quiche served for lunch.
Girls Under 11 Football
Yesterday we entered two U11 Girls Football teams in a competition at Ponteland Primary School. I am delighted to tell you that in two of the games we won!!!! A close range finish from Iris and a driven shot by Darcy saw Dr Thomlinsonâs beat Chantry B and then an even closer poacherâs goal from Maisie saw Dr Thomlinsonâs beat Chantry A. Both Dr Thomlinsonâs teams played each other in a cagey 0-0 draw before defeats against Ponteland and Bailey Green. Well done to all those who took part. The teams sung Abba on the coach on the way back to school although Sweet Caroline would have been more appropriate!
