On Thursday the year 6 football team got their league campaign off to a winning start. On an evening of gales and icy winds they took on Wardley, always a tough game. Playing with the wind in an even first half we took a 1-0 lead, Hannah scoring a great goal. In the second half the team upped their game and controlled the match, even into the gale. Matthew added a second with a low shot to guide us to a 2-0 victory. Well done all (and to the support on a bitter evening!)

Recently we took part in the Joseph Swan Girls Football tournament. Due to the large number of girls who have been interested this year we entered 2 teams to take on Glynwood and Harlow Green. Even showers and a drop in temperature couldn’t dampen spirits. Oakfield 2 played superbly to become runners up and Oakfield 1 battled hard for a share of third place. Well done all.

You all looked like you were having a great time by the huge smiles and very red faces by the end of it!
Well done! Year 5 start getting ready for the Big run at Saltwell Park in July!
After battling hard to reach the semi final of the County Durham FA 7 a side cup, the Year 6 team fell at the penultimate hurdle. In a group of 5 schools the boys gave it there best go but lost to some excellent footballing sides. After defeats against East Stanley (1-3), West Boldon (1-4) and Castletown (2-3) they finally recorded a victory beating George Washington (2-1). Although a little disappointed they still have a chance of silverware in the Gateshead competitions.
On Thursday the year 6 team played their latest Felling FA league game at home to Colegate. With all 9 squad players on top form they dominated for the full 30 minutes and ran out 9-0 winners. Aaron scored 4, Jamie 3 and Oliver 2. Well played, the best you looked in a long time.
The Year 5/6 girl’s football team came so close to making the final of the County Durham 7 a side cup. On Wednesday they travelled to Pelton for their semi final. First up was a game against Catchgate. A bright start saw us race into a 2-0 lead with goals from Megan C and Anna. This forced Catchgate to rally and they quickly pulled a goal back but we hung on to win 2-1. The second game was against the host team Pelton. It was a tight game with few chances, but unfortunately Pelton did nick a goal to run out 1-0 winners. Unlucky girls, but you have improved greatly as the season went on!
But there was nothing gentle about it as 5 Willow used every last drain of energy when the virtual rowing machines arrived from Joseph Swan school. Years 5 and 6 all experienced the effort needed to row 400 metres in a timed competition against all Joseph Swan cluster schools. As the pictures show it was hard work! Well done to all, especially Carl, Nat, Alicia and Lauren B. who are the quickest year 5’s across all cluster schools.
On Friday morning 5 Willow visited the Sunderland Climbing Wall as part of their Mountains topic. After gasps of fear at the size of the 23 metre wall it was on to the safety briefing and warm up. Then, at last, TWO HOURS of climbing fun. As confidence grew so did the level of challenge, and I think it is fair to say that everyone pushed themselves to exceed their goals. Well done 5 Willow, it was great to hear the encouragement you gave each other as well as seeing the fun that was had by all!
After a Winter break that seems to have lasted a lifetime, the football season recommenced on Wednesday night with the girls team in the first round of the County Durham FA 7-a-side. On a cool evening first up was a game against the hosts Colegate. Early pressure saw Oakfield take a quick 2 goal lead through Megan C, but despite creating many more chances no further goals were added. The second game saw a tough 0-0 draw against Jarrow St Bedes, a game with chances at both ends but no one to apply the finishing touch. With Colegate and Jarrow drawing 1-1, it meant Oakfield progressed to the semi final, new s that was greeted by 10 screams so loud my eardrums are still ringing!!!
On a typically bitter and windswept Gateshead Stadium, the Year 5 football team progressed without trouble to the Felling Gateshead FA Final (to be held in the summer…yippee). On Friday they won their group and remained unbeaten. Up first were local rivals Kells Lane. Nick Hall opened the scoring after 8 SECONDS and that set the tone for a 3-0 win; Nick scoring the perfect hat-trick.
The next challenge was Windy Nook, a game of no goals where both defences proved up to the task. Finally Colegate and another 3-0 win, Kieran Costello (2) and another from Nick doing the damage.
Overall, a superb team performance by all 10 squad members. Roll on the final….and hopefully a bit of sun!!
Last Thursday all pupils in Year 5 visited local secondary school Joseph Swan for a sports afternoon. The idea was to experience some new sports and see what Joseph Swan has to offer. Check out the (rather dark) photos to see what we got up to!! (Sorry, flat camera battery :-( )
After two nights of cup football the Tear 6 team were back in league action on Thursday, hosting local rivals Harlow Green. After a tight 2-1 victory against Windy Nook a tired and flu depleted team went down 3-2 on a damp night, Lewis McNall scoring both. Next – Dunston Riverside away.

Another busy week of football got underway despite a major flu outbreak. On Tuesday a depleted Year 5/6 team travelled to Chester-le-Street for the Durham area semi final of the National Under 11 7-a-side competition. (There’s a mouthful of a name!) As winners of Gateshead’s leg we took on the regional winners from Chester-le-Street, South Tyneside and Darlington.
Three very close matches followed. An opening 2-0 win against Mount Pleasant (Darlington) was followed by a 4-3 lose against East Boldon. The final game saw Hetton Lyons overcome us 3-1. Jack, Jamie, Nick and three goals from Lewis were not quiet enough and dreams of Wembley finished.
However on Wednesday an equally depleted team won their first round group in County Durham’s FA 7-a-side competition. A 2-2 draw with Durham St Godrics was followed by a 2-0 victory over Lumley. Jamie with 3 goals, and Nick bagging one. Hopefully another good cup run on the way!
Keep checking for updates.
The combined year 5/6 team have bagged their first trophy of the season by winning the Gateshead Felling FA round of the National Under 11 7-a-side competition. They qualified for the local final by beating Falla Park 6-0 (Jamie Johnson and Nick Hall both with hat-tricks) and Carr Hill 2-0 (Lewis McNall and Jack Fisher Diaz with the goals.
The final was a closer affair and started with a 0-0 draw against Harlow Green. This was followed by a 3-0 win over Windy Nook and a 3-1 victory over Colegate. A very impressive Lewis McNall scoring all 6!!
The semi Final of the Durham leg of the National Under 11 7-a-side competition is this Tuesday, at Red Rose in Chester-le-Street against schools from Darlington, South Tyneside and Chester-le-Street.
Well done to all of the children at Oakfield Juniors for having such good attitudes on Sports day! The teamwork observed was brilliant and you all tried your very best!
Congratulations to the green team for winning the cup for the events overall.
A big thank you to the year 2 children who joined us for the carousel on the morning, you all tried so hard and acted like real juniors!
Thank you to the parents who came and supported the day, it wouldn't have been the same without your cheers! Also, well done to the parents who took part in the sack race and the toddlers who raced on the day too!
Well done Year 5!! You made us very proud last week when you ran the fun run at Saltwell park despite the pouring rain. You all had smiles on your faces whilst running the one mile Tesco run and never complained once ! The whole of year 5 represented our school amongst 1000 other children last wednesday, with Jamie Johnson and Nathan Fortster coming in the top 20. A big thank you to all the children for your fantastic effort and many thanks to parents and families who came to give their support despite the weather.
Presentation night has been confirmed as Thursday 9th July, commencing at 7.00pm. Year 5 and 6 will have trophies to pick up (and hopefully Year 4 after this Wednesdays final)
On Thursday the year 5 football team regained the Gateshead Felling FA football Cup won last year by the current Year 6. On a sunny evening Colegate hosted the final, contested between Glynwood, Kelvin Grove, Colegate and ourselves.
Finals Results
v Kelvin Grove – Won 3-0. Lewis, Aaron and Megan scored
v Glynwood – Won 2-0. Lewis scored both
v Colegate – Won 2-0. Jamie and Lewis scored.
The year 5 team remained undefeated all through the competition, scoring 16 goals. At times they played some brilliant passing football and worked really hard for each other. Well done to you all! Role on next year when they have the chance to play in 5 different competitions!!

Last night the year 4 team got underway in the first round of the Durham FA County Cup. In a round robin format they competed against teams from Rickleton, Seaview and George Washington, with the top two progressing to the next round. First up was a game against Seaview. Despite dominating the whole game (Kieran in goal didn’t touch the ball!) we could only muster a single goal, Ben W scoring.
The team found a more ruthless streak in the next game against George Washington, winning 3-1 despite going a goal behind. George Y scored all three. Finally we played the hosts Rickleton in a game that was very evenly balanced. Despite this chances weren’t taken and Rickleton won 2-1. So with the top two qualifying we made round 2 alongside Rickleton. Well done all, they have the makings of a very good football team!
Last Thursday the under 11 team continued their fine form in the 7-a-side league. On a very windy day we made the short journey to Colegate to take on Carr Hill. The boys were quickly in their stride and produced probably their best performance of the season, running out 4-0 winners. Against the wind in the first half Cameron H and Lewis Mc completed slick passing moves to give us a 2-0 half time lead, before a second Cameron goal and Liam’s first of the season completed the scoring. All round a fine performance and a deserved win.
Next up Kelvin Grove at home after Easter.
Miss Graham had the pleasure of taking a hockey team to a tournament at Gateshead International Stadium yesterday. It was cold and windy but we had a fantastic time and played brilliantly! The competition was outstanding but we showed determination and only conceded 1 goal in 6 games - nothing was getting past Paul and Rachael in defence!
Here's our results:
Oakfield v Emmerville A 1-0
Oakfield v Winlaton West Lane B 1-0
Oakfield v Highfield A 0-0
This meant we won in our league and got through to the semi final.
Oakfield v Colgate 0-1
Oakfield v Highfield B 0-0
Oakfield v Winlaton West Lane A 0-0
And after 6 steady battles, we came 5th out of a total of 13 teams! Congratulations to all of the hockey players - you were all amazing and showed real determination.
Time for Joseph Swan again!
Once every half term, on a Thursday afternoon, teachers select some fantastic children to go down to Joseph Swan for an afternoon of sport. It’s a reward for 1 of 4 things: commitment to PE, demonstating good behaviour and having a positive attitude, being a good citizen at school or meeting targets. At Joseph Swan we get to climb the wall, have a go on the trampoline, play badminton or table tennis and even play sports on the Wii!
It’s time to go again next Thursday so everyone keep working hard and it could be you picked to go!
Here’s a few photos from last time!
Year 5 and year 6 had a fantastic afternoon today – the Newcastle Eagles came into school to teach us about healthy eating, the dangers of smoking, why we should stay fit and of coarse, to play basketball!
“It was really good. I learnt that you can waste 11 minutes of your life just by smoking 1 cigarette! The basketball players were fab, they were really funny!” said Connor in 6 Cedar.
The teachers decided which child had contributed the most throughout the 4 sessions and that child won a prize. Congratulations to Kevin in 6 Birch who won a Newcastle Eagles t-shirt. We also had a basketball competition which Chris in 5 Maple won, and Lewis in 6 Birch came runner up. They won tickets to the next Newcastle Eagles game - well done Chris and Lewis!
Thank you to the Eagles for a fun afternoon!
After a long break for the cold, bleak winter, the Year 5/6 team was back in league action……..on a cold, bleak, windy day. (with the odd ray of sun!!) It was a top of the table clash with Harlow Green in the ‘Thursday League’. In a fixture that has always been close we took an early lead through a Lewis T drive before goals either side of half time edged the local rivals ahead. From here on in we created chance after chance but it wasn’t until the final second that a deserved equaliser came. Lewis Mc finishing a good run with a crisp finish. 2-2 it finished, a fair result. Next up a game against Carr Hill.

The Year 5/6 girls’ team got off to a winning start in the Durham FA knockout competition. Round 1 was held at Colegate where we played the hosts and Simonside School. First up was a game against Simonside, a game we dominated in possession but chances were even at both ends. It was always going to be decided by one goal, and it was a peach of a goal. Kate went on a mazy dribble, beating 1, then 2, then 3 opponents, before coolly slotting the ball home. With some strong defending the girls held out for a 1-0 win.
Next up was Colegate, and by now we were in full flow. Lauren and Brooke helped themselves to two goals each with Sophie chipping in with a debut goal. 100% record in round 1. Round 2 awaits……soon!!
Thanks to the travelling support for lifts, cheers and muffins. See you next fixture!
Congratulations to all the dancers who took part in the dance festival this week! You all looked so professional and your big smiles showed us how much you enjoyed taking part! A BIG thank you to Mrs Gladstone for putting it all together! Let us know what you enjoyed most about the evening by commenting on the weblog!
Children from year 5 will be representing Oakfield at The Gateshead Cheerleading and Skipping Festival tonight. The event will be held at Gateshead International Stadium after school and the girls are very excited about showing their routine !!
I would like to say thank you to all the squad for their hard work and enthusiasm when learning the routine. Good Luck to everyone - you will be fantastic !!! From Miss Batey
The Year 5 football team got their quest for honours off to a superb start on Thursday at a bitterly cold Gateshead Stadium. It was the group stages of the Gateshead Felling FA knockout cup and Oakfield were drawn in the same group as South Street, Windy Nook and Kells Lane. Conditions were tricky as the gale force wind blew straight down the pitch making it hard to pass the ball against it. This didn’t stop the team recording an excellent 2-0 win against South Street with Lewis McNall and Aaron Sutton scoring.
Next up were Kells Lane and the team moved up a gear with a 4-0 ‘derby’ win. Aaron Sutton with 2, Lewis McNall found the net, with an own goal making it four.
The final game saw us overcome the challenge of Windy Nook 3-0 with goals from Jamie Johnson, Jack Fisher-Dias and another own goal. In all three games all ten players performed wonderfully, passing and moving superbly and showing the fight needed to win. Well done all involved, see you at the final!!!
After waiting all season for a win, two come along in a week for the Year 6 team. Following last weeks close victory over Dunston Riverside, this weeks was far more emphatic, 8-1 against St Aidans. It was one of those weeks where everything went right. Cameron Howell, who plundered 4, even managed one with his head (and it was a proper header, it didn’t just hit him!). Michael Richardson scored 2, one a spectacular volley, and Lewis McNall and Michael Iveson chipped in with one each. It was by far the best performance this year…….so come on boys, keep it up!!!
Over the last 6 weeks children from years 4, 5 and 6 have attended coaching sessions at school by members of Newcastle United Community Coaches. This concluded with an enjoyable trip to the home of Newcastle United.
After an indifferent start to the season, the Year 6 team finally got their season back on track, with a hard fought 1-0 victory over Dunston Riverside in the Thursday League. Despite early exits in both the Gateshead FA and Durham FA knockout cup confidence was still high. The goal came early in the game through Cameron Howell. Despite the long, wet grass and mud, the rest of the game was a competitive affair, with few chances at both ends. Overall though, the lads deserved their victory.

The Year 3/4 football team completed their season as well deserved runners up in the Durham FA Knockout Cup, a competition that started with 64 teams. The final on Wednesday in Chester-le-Street involved Castletown (Sunderland), Lumley (Chester-le-Street) and Seaham (Peterlee) alongside us. The team got off to a slow start loosing 3-1 to eventual winners Seaham with an own goal getting us on the score sheet. The team raised their game after that with a 1-0 win over Lumley curtesy of an Aaran Sutton header he didn’t know too much about!! The final game against Castletown produced the best performance and a 3-1 win, with a goal from Aaran again and 2 from Lewis McNall. An excellent season from all involved and a well deserved final result. Well done!!!!
Congratulations to the Year 5 football team who jointly won the Felling Schools FA knockout cup on Thursday at Gateshead Stadium. After qualifying for the final way back in October the squad finally got the chance to compete against South Street, Wardley and Harlow Green. On a day of very few goals and four evenly matched teams it was always going to be close, and so it proved with just 3 goals scored in the 6 matches. After a winning start against South Street with Cameron Howell getting the goal, two 0-0 draws followed in close games containing lots of good football. It led to a nervous finish, as per usual, with nothing to separate ourselves and Wardley. Congratulations to all involved and hopefully more success will follow next season.

The year 3/4 football team reached the final of the Durham County Cup on Tuesday after a stunning comeback in their final match to top their group. They lined up alongside Colegate, Ousten from Durham and Rickleton in Washington in what was a tough semi final draw.
The first game was a fairly comfortable 3-1 win over Colegate, although it is fair to say that we didn’t play as well as we can. Aaran Sutton, Nick Hall and Lewis McNall with the goals. Next up was Ousten. Twice they took the lead and twice we fought back to grab a well earned 2-2 draw. A screamer of a volley and an own goal helping us on our way.
In the final game we were to play Rickleton, knowing that only a win would get us through. We had improved as a team as the tournament went on and this was by far the best performance. But despite passing the ball well, tackling hard and running their little heart out Rickleton still went in 1-0 up at half time. The second half was a different story and we were soon back on level terms when a Lewis McNall shot was deflected into the net. With a minute to go Aaran Sutton grabbed a winner that only just crossed the line after bouncing off the bar. The last few seconds really dragged but eventually the final whistle went and the final place was booked.
Well done to all – Jamie, Carl, Kieran, Kieran, Nick, Aaran, Megan, Callum and Lewis
The Final will Be played at Red Rose Primary School, County Durham, On Tuesday 13th May.
Well done to all of the children who took part in the Year 5/6 Hockey Tournament at Gateshead Stadium on Thursday. All of the children played very well and we had an excellent afternoon. Team A came third and team B came fifth. Check out our photos!

On Tuesday 18th March the year 5/6 girls team got their season underway in the Durham FA U11 Girls knockout cup. The first round featured 2 games at a very cold Colegate. Both games were tough affairs with bruised shins and cut knees to prove it. We defended well and hit Colegate swiftly on the break, creating many chances. Overall this proved too much for Colegate and we ran out 3-1 winners in the first game with Lauren McDonald, Emiline Scott and Kate Thompson scoring. The second game was equally as tough but again the team played brilliantly to win 2-0, Lauren McDonald and Keira Scope with the goals.
So, roll on round 2, on a warmer evening one hopes!!

Well done gymnasts.
Last night Oakfield gymnasts performed at Gateshead Leisure Centre as part of the Gateshead Gymnastics Festival. 25 schools took part. Our girls were fantastic, but I'm bound to say that. They performed brilliantly, looked great thanks to parents and sat patiently as we were last. I was very proud of you all!!!
Well done to all of those children who took part in the basketball tournament at Joseph Swan. We had 2 fantastic teams of year 5 and 6 players and although we didn't win, our children stood out for their outstanding sportmanship skills, attitudes and behaviour. Must mention Daniel W.'s amazing goal from the half way line! The referee was counting down, "3... 2..." and Daniel, knowing we were losing by a goal, decided to have a shot from the half way line, we had nothing to lose. The ref continued, "...1!" and blew his whistle, milli-seconds before the ball went straight through the hoop (basketball rules state that if the ball is in the air when the whistle is blown, goal still counts)! Nice one Daniel!
The Year 5 Football team got their season off to a perfect start last night at Gateshead Stadium. The team took part in the first round of the Felling FA knockout cup on the new artificial pitches, a huge playing surface for 7-a-side football. The competition involved 20 teams split up into 4 groups of 5 with only the winning team from each group progressing to the final. Our year 5’s were drawn alongside Falla Park, Windy Nook, Kells Lane and St Johns.
In all four games the team played some superb football; passing, controlling, making space for themselves and working for each other. Because of this all games seemed to be played largely within the opponent’s halves. This led to a lot of chances being created, and, with a bit of luck (and help from an opposing goalkeeper) we managed to score in all four games. At the other end our defence and goalkeeper managed to keep any danger at bay and were rewarded with four clean sheets. This was no more than they deserved.

After coming through the group stages unbeaten, the Year 6 football team took their place in the Felling FA 7 a side knockout competition. Standing in the way of glory were teams from Roman Road, Harlow Green and Windy Nook. In a round robin competition all schools played each other, with the winners not only being Gateshead champions, but also going on to the Durham FA stage of the national competition.
In the first game against Windy Nook Oakfield dominated. Chance after chance came and went until at last, with time running out a Louis Tiplady popped up with a deserved winner.
The next two games against Roman Road and Harlow Green were tight with few chances. In both, despite 110% effort, neither team were able to break through and the games ended 0-0.
Final league table;
Harlow Green - 7 pts
Oakfield - 5 pts
Roman Road - 4 pts
Windy Nook - 0 pts
In the end the defence stuck to their task but a lack of goals cost us the championship. Still a good night awaits at the presentations next July when medals all round are in order!!
Tennis coaching will take place on Monday 17th September so please enure your child has their PE kit in school. (Y3-Y5)
On Wednesday night the tear 3/4 football team took part in the semi-final of the County Durham Knockout Cup, and like the year 6 team, showed they have true class. In a league situation, where only the top team qualify any slip up could have proved fatal, but two good wins and an unlucky defeat saw the team through on goal difference. The final will be played next Tuesday 15th May at Red Rose Primary in Chester-le-Street beginning at 3.45pm. So come along to cheer on our youngest footballing sensations.
Well done to: Lewis Terrell, Owen Barker, Cameron Howell, Kameron Barker, Joe Donahue, Michael Richardson, Michael Iveson, Jamie Johnson and Callum Barnes.

Oakfield Year 6 football team have been crowned champions of the Felling Schools FA Year 6 Thursday League – Division 1 (that’s the top division!). After a long hard season through rain, sleet, wind and finally sun, the 9 boys who make up the squad finally prevailed. The competition started way back in late September with only one win in the first three games. But since then, and the Winter break, the team has gone from strength to strength, winning all four games against some very strong opposition.
So well done to (in no particular order) Michael McGill, Robert Ashbridge, Cameron Barker, Nick Hay, Luke Playle, Liam White, Harry Robinson, Greg Lindsay and Callum McFarlane.
It doesn’t end there though as the team are also in the final of the Felling FA knockout cup and have the summer league to play for.
