Our Food students have been very busy in the kitchen. Ms Richmond’s and Miss Higgins’ Year 7 classes created some fantastic cakes after independently researching their own recipes and bringing them into school to follow with support from staff. 😊
Our Year 10s have also impressed us as they completed their exploration of yeast cookery by making their own versions of cinnamon buns. After preparing their dough, students rolled it out and chose their favourite fillings, from the classic butter, sugar, cinnamon and raisins to Biscoff, chocolate spread and chocolate chips.

Ms Richmond’s Year 9s showed fantastic creativity in the kitchen this week.
Their independent task was to design their own meat based recipes and every single student came up with something different.
From chicken BBQ pizza swirls to chicken fried rice, chilli con carne, chicken fajitas and more, it was brilliant to see such imagination and confidence shining through in their cooking 😊

Clearly STEAM Club has not heard the advice to never play with matches, but our brilliant crew know exactly how to investigate them safely.
This week they raised a match drawbridge to release a coin using science. When the two match heads touched and ignited, the heat caused one side to burn faster than the other which made the match bend. A very cool trick that can be tried at home with adult supervision 🔥
Students then explored how far apart matches need to be to prevent ignition chain reactions and marked the start of 2026 together.

🍦 Year 9 are taking on a delicious business brief, inventing an original ice cream flavour from scratch.
From market research and target audiences to eye catching packaging, logos, colour palettes and brand stories, they are thinking like real product teams, building creativity, problem solving and enterprise confidence along the way 💡
We’re already seeing imaginative flavours and professional looking designs that would turn heads on any supermarket shelf 👏

🔥 Year 8 have been busy investigating which foods provide the highest energy per 100g. After studying food packaging, they discovered that crisps are absolutely packed with energy.
Their next lesson took an exciting turn when students were told about a possible school trip to a beautiful desert island where they would be scuba diving, swimming and playing cricket and rounders on the beach. Realising they would need high energy snacks, they were given a selection of crisps to test. The only problem was that the packaging had mysteriously gone missing.
Undeterred, our students designed and carried out their own investigation to work out which snack would keep them going the longest.
Their results were clear. Monster Munch was the winner 🏝️👏

🔬 We just can’t resist a good science investigation! Our brilliant Year 9s have been exploring resistance in different components within a series circuit. It’s fantastic to see them confidently setting up circuits, recalling the rules they’ve learned and developing strong problem solving skills. When the current didn’t flow, they worked systematically to check each component and even earned Merits for helping others and reinforcing their own learning.
Our Year 7s have also been busy in their “Earth” topic, creating solar system models and producing impressive planet fact files. They then let their imaginations take flight by writing postcards from space. A few even reported being a bit sunburnt on Venus despite their cleverly designed life support equipment!
Take a look at the amazing learning happening across our Science curriculum.

❄️What a start to 2026! After not one but two snow days, the closures followed a real battering from Storm Goretti. There was around 10cm of snow across the site and it made for some absolutely stunning views of our brand new STEM block.
The second photo even captured the moon and Jupiter glowing together in the western sky – a beautiful moment on a very chilly morning ❄️✨
