Message Number One!
Hi Guys
You are coming up with some really great ideas - I find it very heplful when you add the reasons why you have picked your names too, as they will be around for a long, long time so it is a very important task you have.
We do have to be careful though as to what the names might suggest - for example Tyne is a good local idea but Tyne View might make someone think they could see it from their house, but I dont think they can.
It just so happens that its the Angel of the Norths 10th anniversary this year so Angel or North is a very clever idea Connor.
I also think Churchill Road and Emily Courtyard are perfect - well done Katie
Message Number Two!
Hi Guys
These are some really good thoughts - try and add reasons of why you have chosen them.
Primary Hill is a good one Garry - as it leads on for your schools, I like the thought process there.
Keep up the good work

Hi Stephen,
we have thought of some more names linked to the research you asked us to do.
Booth lane (william booth found in salvation army)
Swan Palace- joe wilson swan invented the first light bulb
Bewick Lane - famous artist
Davies avenue (she founded the first college for women in Cambridge
William Wailes-stain glass expert
St Wilfreds Terrace (because of their school)
St Bede's Street (because of our school)
George Ridley Close (because he composed the blaydon races)
Glasgow Gardens (alex Glasgow was a famous singer and song writer
These names are based on people who have made an impact in gateshead.
Hope you like them

I think that a good name for one of the streets would be Axwell Park.

I thought of some more ideas like Duty Drive and Modern street , Cornbridge Street and Lifestyle green.
The reason why I like Duty Drive I thought of duty and driving, the reason why I liked Modern street because I thought of modern days.
The reason why I liked Cornbridge is becuse I thought of corn and a bridge, and Lifestyle Green is because I thought of life and style and Ithought of the colour green.
