This morning at Langdale Centre, during a practical Science lesson, Year 8s made DNA models with sweets. Here are some photos of their results!
Our Year 8s have settled into their learning this week at the Langdale Centre site. Watch this short montage video to see how they have been getting on.
On Wednesday this week, students from Marden High School represented North Tyneside county in the Cross Country Championships at Temple Park in South Shields. Congratulations to Year 7 student Jack, who won his age group category – CLICK HERE to see Jack cross the finish line!
Jack and Lewis (Yr7) both celebrate their qualification!
Year 7 student Lewis also qualified, and there were successes in the other year groups too, with Year 8 student Oscar qualifying in the Year 8 & 9 category, and Year 11 student Katie will also go through to the Inter-County Championships.
There was also success from former Marden students, with Whitley High’s Josh Blevins winning in the Boys Year 12 category, and Holly Waugh coming fourth for the girls at the same age group.
Congratulations, and well done to all who took part!
Next week, on Wednesday 12th January, the immunisation team will visit school to administer second doses of the Covid-19 vaccine to 12-15 year-olds. A consent form and letter is being sent to all parents and carers, and is attached below for information. Please also read the attached information and Frequently Asked Questions document.
As we are unable to host our annual Christmas address from St. George’s Church, we instead share with you this recorded Christmas message. Happy Christmas to everyone.
Dear Parent/Carer
To provide our Y8 and Y9 students with the opportunity to have face to face time with staff at school, before the end of term, we would like to invite in Y8 on Tuesday 14th December from 1:15pm to 3:15pm and Y9 on Wednesday 15th December from 1:15pm to 3:15pm.
The format of the afternoon, for both years, will include an assembly, form time activities and check ins on remote learning with form tutors and support staff.
Students should arrive at the East Yard gate at 1:10pm ready for the 1:15pm start in the Cafe. They will be leaving Marden High at 3:15pm via the same exit.
If you have any questions, please contact your child’s Head of Year or Mr Anderson.
Many thanks
Mr M Snape
Headteacher
HPV School Based Vaccination Programme for Years 8 and 9 on Thursday 10 February 2022
The HPV vaccination programme in the UK consists of 2 doses of the vaccine, which is started before the child’s 15th birthday. All children will be offered their first dose in Year 8 and a second dose in Year 9.
As you will be aware, this programme was cancelled last year due to the pandemic, so we will be offering first dose to both boys and girls in Year 8 and Year 9.
We have provided links below for children and young people and their families as a means of information sharing.
