It's a school where staff wept tears of joy after a great Ofsted report.
And we are continuing the focus on Ryhope Infant School Academy with a look back at some of the great days you had there in the past.
We've got Sunderland Echo archive views including sunflower-growing, a Christmas retirement, bouncingly good fun at playtime in 2004 and Easter bonnets from the same year.

2. A fond farewell to Avril
Head teacher Avril Short was given a warm and festive send off when she retired from the school at Christmas in 2004.
4. Check out those hats
The Asda bunny has lots of admiration for the Easter bonnets worn by Linzi Saunders, Jessica Little and Raymond Monks in 2004.
