International athletics returns to Gateshead just seven days after the Beijing Olympics, with what is certain to be a star studded Grand Prix of new British and overseas Beijing Olympic medallists. In 2006, the last time the world elite in track and field came to Gateshead, Asafa Powell netted a world record in the 100m, and in 2004 Russia’s Yelena Isinbayeva matched that feat in the women’s pole vault. Equally great performances are expected this year as the athletes attend in peak physical condition. This is your chance to experience live world class athletics on your door step at Gateshead International Stadium and the returning British athletes.
Gateshead Stadium has kindly given Lingey House free use of the venue on Monday 30th June to host the Lingey Lympics. Gateshead and the North-East has a proud athletic history and we are so lucky to have world class athletics on our doorstep .It would be great if Lingey pupils and parents could turn out in force on August 31st to support this event.
Tickets will be available to buy from reception on the day of the Lingey 'Lympics and also via the telephone number and website listed above.

Pupils will be given a proof to take home next week of their class photos and any other photos they were part of (sports teams, music groups etc).
Photographer Peter Frayne has taken this year's photos and we have tried something a little different with the photos which we hope you will like. Out has gone the uniformed rows and hands on knees. Instead the pupils had free choice as to their pose, position and any additional equipment which they wished to hold.
Pictures are priced at £15 each and you can purchase as many of each as you like.
In addition to the proof of the photo the full range of photos will be displayed on the plasma screen in the entrance hall for you to view.
Below is a picture in the style of the class and group photos featuring children from Nursery - Year 6. This picture will soon become the permanent image on our school website.
Click on the 'comments' button below to let us know what you think of the new style of photos.
