Judging has just taken place for the Year 7 Education for Humanity Community projects. Students were tasked with creating their own communities based around an area of interest to them and we have been amazed with the excellent work they handed in. Choosing the competition winners was very difficult with so many contenders so members of staff were invited to select their favourite entries. The winning prize was a £20 amazon voucher followed by a £10 voucher for second place and £5 for third place. The winners are: 1st place Milla N - Photography Community 2nd place Emma F - Cat cafe 3rd place Isabelle T - My Pet Community Well done to everyone who took part!

⭐ We had a very exciting visit last week! ⭐ The BBC came into school to shine a spotlight on females in football, exploring the future of the game and how we deliver football to the next generation. They chose our very own inspirational Miss Russ to lead the way! ⚽👏 The BBC interviewed Amy along with some of our fantastic young footballers, and the feature was aired on Friday. To top it all off, Miss Russ and her team went on to win their match on Sunday which was the 4th round of the adobe FA cup! 🏆 We are incredibly proud of Miss Russ, her team, and our brilliant girls, and we wish them the very best of luck in their next match. Keep inspiring! 💙⚽✨

✨ Big Dreams, Bright Futures! ✨ Today, our Stellar students in Years 8, 9, and 10 took a deep dive into the world of higher education! 🎓 We hosted an inspiring session exploring the incredible opportunities that university life has to offer. From the application process to the amazing social side of things, our students are already starting to think big. Here is what some of our Year 9s had to say: “The talk was enjoyable, interesting and helpful. With clear information given about the application process.” — Arabella S. “The talk was helpful and engaging with lots of activities to make the detailed information given fun and interesting.” — Chaithanyaa “University sounds so inclusive with all the societies and opportunities available to students that go there.” — Beau W. “The talk was really inspiring. There are so many opportunities for people to study so many different things.” — Sahasra P. It’s never too early to start exploring your passions and seeing where they can take you. We are so proud of our students for their engagement and curiosity today! 🌟

She shared insights into her career journey, qualifications, and how she built valuable industry experience. Students then took part in a hands-on activity, where they were tasked with storyboarding a video for their own campaign, putting their creativity and learning into practice.
