Our first Extended Learning afternoon took place this week! This is an opportunity for our students to experience a variety of extra curricular activities and life skills that are an extension of our usual curriculum.
The focus for year 7 and 9 was team building, there were many activities and challenges that students took part in and we also had Tiny Tekkers in school running some of these activities. Year 8 were away from classes today to experience ‘take your child to work day’.
Year 10 got to experience ‘A Christmas Carol’ come to life with a fantastic performance from the Globe Players theatre company. They aim to stimulate imaginations and and inspire young audiences by bringing the enriching experience of theatre to as many schools as possible. This was followed up by a workshop where students came up with a modern interpretation of a key scene from the play which they then performed, this links to their GCSE English text.
Year 11 students focused on coursework and revision in preparation for their upcoming mock exams.
