NewslettersWelcome 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.

What’s Happening...
We’re excited to invite all parents and carers to a special event at Lemington Riverside Primary School on Wednesday 26th November from 2:00–3:00pm.
Our #WeAreAmbitious Showcase Event will celebrate the amazing aspirations of our children. Pupils will be sharing their hopes for the future and exploring the wide range of opportunities open to them as they grow.
There will be a number of things to buy including items from the children's very own festive stalls that they have designed and developed so please bring along a small amount of cash to spend if you can!
💫 Plus! As you explore the different stations around the showcase, you can collect stamps to enter our prize draw — with a chance to win a £50 Amazon voucher! 🎉
As well as all this, we will also have special guests from a number of local organisations.
It promises to be an inspiring afternoon, and we’d love for you to join us and support the children as they showcase their ambitions.
We can’t wait to welcome you!

Through our partnership with Newcastle Theatre Royal we are delighted to confirm that we have a number of FREE tickets to give away for the Aladdin pantomime at 7:00pm on Monday 24th November 2025.
Please note, we can allocate 1 adult ticket per request and only children who currently attend Lemington Riverside Primary School are eligible to receive a ticket. The adult completing the form must have parental responsibility for the child/children. No school staff will be present at this event so you will need to arrange your own transport to/from the theatre.
Everybody attending will also get a voucher for a free ice cream at the interval!
Please note, we have limited tickets and these will be allocated on a first come, first served basis. Those successful in securing tickets will receive the tickets via their child later this week in a named envelope.
We would like to thank Newcastle Theatre Royal for their ongoing partnership work with Lemington Riverside and the West End Schools Trust (WEST).
