Our children have been having a blast with their new toys during breaks and lunch this week. Plus, we’ve got a squad of ace #SportsLeaders running the show, organising games for the younger ones!
The Year 1 and 2 gang busted out their best moves at the movement sports festival. Check out their moves!

Recently, Year 2 and 3, who’ve been grooving to their festival dance routine. These little dancers are all about showing off their fancy footwork!
This year one of the William Leech school priorities is encouraging our children to be more active. Children in Years 4, 5 and 6 have taken part in Bikeability which teaches children how to ride their bike safely at different levels. 12 children were awarded level 1 and 9 children received their level 2 award.
Once again there was a great turn out despite the weather at the annual Lynemouth carols by candlelight event. Members of the school and community joined together to spread festive cheer around the village and to turn on the Christmas lights. The lights were turned on by light design winner, Charley. The new nutcracker light looks fantastic.
All children at William Leech CofE Primary have taken part in Christmas performances. Children showed great levels of confidence as well as fantastic singing. A particular well done goes to four children who took on roles within the week of the performances to cover for illness. Over the week the children performed to packed halls so a big well done to our families for their support too.
An enormous #ThankYou to all our families and members of the community who came to support our summer school fair yesterday. We raised £570 for the school fund which will go towards providing special events for the children in school next year
Today our children dressed in white or rainbow colours as part of #Pride month. Thank you to our families who send donations for @JustLikeUsUK who support LGBTQ+ young people
Our #RootsandShoots rooftop veggie patch is growing brilliantly. Can you spot chard, onions, parsley and French beans?
Our fantastic football team has taken part in two friendly competitions over the last two weeks. We’re very impressed by their teamwork, sportsmanship and resilience in the games which is leading to improved performance and scores.
Twelve children from William Leech took part in Northumberland Schools 10 pin bowling competition organised by SMILE Through Sport and Pentathlon. The competition consisted of 16 teams across Northumberland. They got to meet Stephen Miller MBE, British athlete who competes in the fields of paralympic club and discus throwing and who has won three gold, one silver and one bronze medal at the Paralympics. Like Stephen, one team from William Leech finished in first place, winning gold medals to take home. The children developed leadership skills which they will use to lead sporting activities for other children in school in the Spring term.
