Welcome to Lemington Riverside

Welcome to a primary school that dares to be different and celebrates its uniqueness…

We are Lemington Riverside Primary School – an inclusive, vibrant school at the heart of our community, overlooking the beautiful River Tyne. We welcome children from age 3 to 11 and are a one-form-entry school, meaning there is one class in each year group.

Our school is a magnificent Edwardian building, with spacious classrooms, break out spaces, libraries, ICT facilities, a sensory room and an exciting outdoor environment. We also have a community hub on site, providing additional activities, services and support to our children, families and the wider community.

NUFC READING CHALLENGE!
A huge well done to Maisie from Year 5 who wins our Newcastle United Reading Challenge!
Maisie was one of a number of children who had read every single day since the challenge began. All of the children who had read every day went in to a prize draw that was made in our Heroes assembly this afternoon on the big screen.
Maisie now wins the incredible prize of visiting the Newcastle United first team training ground to meet the first team players and get her favourite book signed by the players!
All of the other children who read every single day will also win a £10 Waterstones voucher as recognition for their incredible efforts.
We are so proud of the impact of this challenge - we have seen so many children reading more often at home building up their reading confidence and of course their knowledge, vocabulary and love of reading too!
