Willow class had a great day today visiting Hall Farm Park

We've made it to the finish line. Both pupils have completed their Duke of Edinburgh Bronze award. We are very proud of your achievement. Nothing better than to celebrate with an ice-cream!

D of E Bronze group are making great progress today after a wet day yesterday! Along the way we have discussed WW1 and WW2 defence's and the Greenwich meridian.

There's something 'fishy' going on in Kite class today! We used our observation drawings skills, then transferred our skills into painting techniques.

The Year 10s from Hawk, Kestrel and Kite went to a careers fair all about the jobs in the building industry. They learnt about brick laying, scaffold construction, plastering and roof laying. They also looked at some heritage buildings and learnt about how these are maintained including building wooden windows and how to use putty to hold the glass in. Lots of new skills were learnt and future career ideas thought about.

The Eco Ambassadors went up to 6th Form to help with some very tall stinging nettles and an area of weeding that needed some attention. In an hour the team did a FANTASTIC job!

Hawk Class went to the farm this week and learnt how to test the soil so that the farmer knows what he needs to add to the soil to help the crops grow. We tested the nitrates, PH levels and phosphorous levels in the soil. We then had an amazing experience!! And a huge laugh!! We tried to catch and walk the sheep!! Making memories at the farm!

DofE Silver Expedition – Day 3 Up and out of camp by 8am this morning, our Silver Award participants set off on the final day of their expedition. The route took them up Mam Tor before crossing the stunning Peak District landscape and finishing in Hope. The group have been fantastic throughout the expedition, showing brilliant teamwork, resilience and determination every step of the way. They have supported one another through challenging terrain and changing conditions, demonstrating all the qualities that make the DofE such a valuable experience. A huge well done to everyone on completing their expedition section – a fantastic achievement!

Bingo ready!!!
