Star of the Sea is a Roman Catholic Primary School in Whitley Bay, England.
We are about 1 mile (1.5km) from the North Sea and 9 miles (14.5 km) from the City of Newcastle.
Our school badge shows our local lighthouse which is called St. Mary's Lighthouse.
The school was opened in 1968 - it is our 40th birthday soon - and was made bigger in 2005/6.
We have @ 400 pupils from 3 years up to 11 years.
There are 15 classes, with each teacher supporting our Headteacher - Mr Willcock. There are lots of other staff in school too.
We have a whiteboard in every classroom, connected to a computer and the internet. Some of our older classrooms also have the old black and white boards.
We love the school and our local area and are very proud of it.

Chris and I really enjoyed our visit to your school with Korky Paul. We thought your drawings were excellent and we were impressed by how well you paid attention and by how friendly you all were. Well done!

Thank you for our lovely day at your school last week. It was really great to see all of the work that you had put in to Korly's visit and I can't wait to see all of the things you put on this website to share with your friends in Epinay and South Tyneside

I think Korky Paul at Star of the Sea was a great idea,
he was realy good and he did dino pictures of other pupils, and you got to buy Korky Paul books like ,Winnie the Witch and The Fish That Could Wish.
