Important information about applying for a school place for your child:

  • Children born between 1 September 2019 and 31 August 2020 are due to start primary school in September 2024.
  • Applications open in October each year and the deadline is the 15th January 2024. You can apply using this link: South Tyneside School Admissions- How to Apply
  • It is important that you submit your application online before the deadline otherwise your child will not be allocated a place in a school in September.

Choosing Fellgate Primary School for your child or children

We are delighted that you would like your child/children to join our school family in September 2024. At Fellgate we pride ourselves on our friendly and welcoming approach to our families. Parents/carers are invited to an Open Afternoon in the Summer term.

Some photos of the different areas in reception:

This is our small world and construction area. You can play with the vehicles, build a train track, or create a farm or dinosaur world. The possibilities are endless!

Our role play area changes regularly. It might be a kitchen, cafe, shop, hospital or a farm! You can help decide what it should be, and work with your friends to create it.

In our maths area you can become a number whizz! We learn all about number with the help of ‘Numberblocks’, and also explore shapes, measurements and patterns.

This is our quiet reading area, where you can explore lots of books, do a jigsaw with a friend, tell a story to a puppet or toy, or just relax! The choice is yours!

Our sand and water area is a place to investigate our world, create super sand models, or even explore floating and sinking! There are lots of opportunities to explore science, geography and maths within these areas, as well as developing your creativity.

Our creative studio is a place to let your imagination run free! There is a huge range of materials to help you build, paint or create anything you want.

 

Grab a costume, put on some music and perform a show for your friends and teachers! The stage is all yours in our performance area.
