🏅☀️ Whole School Sports Day 2026 ☀️🏅
Just before breaking up for the summer holidays, our whole school came together for a fantastic Sports Day, and what a brilliant way to end the academic year!
The day was filled with cheering, encouragement, determination and some truly outstanding athletic performances. It was wonderful to see students supporting one another, showing great sportsmanship, and giving every event their very best effort.
With glorious sunshine and a fantastic atmosphere throughout the day, it was the perfect way to celebrate another successful year together.
A special shout out must go to our man on the mic, Mr Lawrenson, whose energy, enthusiasm and live sports commentary kept everyone entertained throughout the day. From building excitement before each race to celebrating every achievement, he did an amazing job of keeping spirits high and bringing the action to life! 🎙️👏
A huge well done to everyone who took part and thank you to all the staff who helped make the day such a memorable success. We couldn't have asked for a better way to finish the year.
Wishing all our students, families and staff a wonderful summer break! 🌞

☀️🔬 Outdoor Learning in Science for 7Y1! 🌱📊
As we enjoyed the sunshine during the final week of term, 7Y1 took their science learning outdoors to carry out a sampling investigation. Using quadrats, students investigated biodiversity within different areas and collected data using scientific sampling techniques.
This practical built on the practice sampling investigation completed in the previous lesson, gave students the opportunity to demonstrate that they were secure and confident in their methods. It was fantastic to see such careful data collection, accurate use of equipment, and thoughtful discussions about the reliability of their results.
A brilliant example of learning beyond the classroom, combining scientific enquiry with the benefits of being outdoors in the sunshine! 🌞🌿
👏 Well done, 7Y1, for your enthusiasm, teamwork and excellent investigative skills.

🌙 Safe Nights Start with Smart Decisions
Midlands Nightlife Medical Delivered valuable safety advice to Year 10 this week. Year 10 students attended an informative and engaging assembly focusing on how to stay safe when socialising with friends in the evening. The session provided practical advice on recognising potential risks, making sensible decisions, and looking after both themselves and those around them. Students learned about the importance of staying together, planning journeys home in advance, keeping phones charged, and being aware of their surroundings. The presenters also shared valuable tips on how to spot signs that a friend may be vulnerable or in need of support, as well as what actions to take if a situation does not feel right. The assembly encouraged students to think proactively about personal safety, peer responsibility, and making informed choices, equipping them with useful knowledge and strategies to help them stay safe and confident while enjoying time with friends. Thank you Joshua and Jessica! ... See MoreSee Less
