This afternoon, my year 10 Transition Challenge group have been talking about different household jobs that they help with at home. We then tried our hand at ironing. Most students were a little nervous at first, as they were worried about burning themselves. However, they all watched a demonstration carefully, and followed instructions perfectly. Well done, year 10 – you all did a fantastic job! 👏👏👏
Please contact us if you have any queries. Thank you for your support
We will be holding our annual enterprise fayre on Friday, 10th December.
1-3pm. Everybody is welcome!
Our pupils will be making a variety of products as part of their enterprise work such as Christmas decorations, Christmas Eve bags, pamper kits, plants and a range of food & sweet products etc.
There will also be a raffle and tombola.
This will be an outdoor event so visitors are advised to wrap up warm. Thank you!
On Tuesday, 7W were learning about Judaism. We looked into Shabbat including how/why it is celebrated. To do this, we then made a loaf of challah which is traditionally eaten each Shabbat with a meal. 7W were able to listen carefully to instructions to make the bread on their own. We then enjoyed this as a class with some butter on! Great work 7W, it was delicious!
Some pupils in 10D have been working hard learning their number bonds to 10 and 20. They used part-whole models to work out pairs of numbers that add up to 10 or 20. Next we will work on rapid recall if these number pairs.
We all wore yellow/non-uniform for children in need today, with our room decorated with Pudsey faces we made yesterday.
Some of our students in their vocational group have been fashion designers, using only recyclable materials. They are very proud of their finished items!
After learning about Anti-bullying in our Rights Respecting Schools lessons, students and staff decided to help raise awareness within school by wearing odd socks for the national anti-bullying week. This leads into the work that our Student Council are currently involved in, which is reviewing and developing how the school supports such an important subject as anti-bullying. Well done to all who joined in to help raise awareness this week!
The Bronze, Silver and Gold Duke of Edinburgh groups have continued in their efforts to keep our beaches litter free. They have shown an excellent attitude towards our weekly beach cleaning sessions and are well on their way to achieving the volunteering section of their award. Well done and thank you!
