🔍🦋 Exploring Invertebrates at MATisland, Preston Monford! 🦋🔍

Our students had an exciting day investigating invertebrates during their visit to MATisland! 🌿✨

They loved exploring the outdoors, searching for insects, and identifying them under their spy glasses.

This hands-on experience allowed our budding scientists to connect with nature and learn more about the incredible diversity of life around us. It was a fantastic opportunity to enhance their understanding of ecosystems while having fun in the great outdoors! 🌳🔬

Great job, students! We can't wait to hear all about your discoveries!

🐟🌊 Exciting Pond Dipping Adventure at Shrewsbury Academy! 🦟✨

Our students had a fantastic time pond dipping as part of the MATi program! They thoroughly enjoyed discovering a variety of fascinating creatures, including fish, beetles, and even a water stick insect alongside a water scorpion!

It was a great opportunity for hands-on learning and fun in nature, and everyone had a blast exploring the wonders of our local ecosystem.

This lady is a credit to your school! Incredible! 👏🏻

One of the best teachers in the world. Xx

🔥 Did Alicia Keys get it wrong with her lyrics "This girl is on fire"? Clearly, she hasn’t met our Headteacher Mr. Taylor! It’s official—the new anthem should be "This Head is on fire!" 🔥

With teaching and learning at the top of the agenda, Shrewsbury Academy is continually improving, and last year’s GCSE results are proof of that. 📈

Our student numbers keep rising, and the new Haughmond Building is a haven of calm, focused learning. Plus, we’re excited about the brand new, all-singing, all-dancing STEM block opening soon—just around the corner (literally!). 🧪🔧

Under Mr. Taylor's leadership, Shrewsbury Academy is going from strength to strength, and we couldn’t be prouder. For more information about our school, please visit shrewsburyacademy.co.uk💙

🎂🧠 Year 8 students at Shrewsbury Academy brought their A-game to support our Macmillan Coffee Morning with some competitive cake-making! 🍰

Amelia proudly claimed that Mr. Phillip’s tutor group made the best cakes, including their delicious brain cakes (with the “tenuous” claim that eating them makes you brainy 😉).

Not to be outdone, some of Miss Allsop’s and Mrs. Gibson’s students teamed up to create and decorate The Periodic Table Cakes—and even had a small debate over who would get to eat Au (gold) 🏅.

There was plenty of fun and learning about chemical symbols. Here's a brain teaser: what do the symbols for deuterium, lithium, carbon, iodine, oxygen, uranium, and sulfur spell? D_LiCIOUS! 🤩

🌍✨ Our amazing 8R students had a fantastic time discussing how the brilliant MFL (Modern Foreign Languages) department at Shrewsbury Academy has been celebrating the European Day of Languages! 🎉

It was wonderful to hear how much our students love learning Spanish at SA. We also discovered the impressive linguistic talents of both 8R students and tutors. Many of our staff and students are fluent in multiple languages, with English being their second or even third language! 🌟

What a great opportunity to learn more about each other and celebrate our diverse cultural backgrounds and language skills! 🌐💬

🌍 Year 11 Child Development: Tackling Period Poverty & Understanding the Menstrual Cycle 🌸

Our Year 11 Child Development students have been exploring the important issue of Period Poverty around the world. This was linked to their studies on the menstrual cycle as part of their Child Development course exam content.

As a practical activity, students created menstrual cycle bracelets, with different stages represented by coloured beads, deepening their understanding of the cycle's phases. They also shared their bracelets and knowledge during Science lessons, promoting awareness and learning among their peers.

We are proud of their efforts to combine learning with social awareness! 🌟
