PRIMARY - Year 4 have taken part in sports day today, here are some of the highlights!

SCIENCE - All year 8 students recently competed in

SCIENCE - All year 8 students recently competed in an inter-house competition to see which group could produce the best presentation on a famous scientist. A winner from each form group was selected who then went head to head against each other to decide who had made the best presentation in the year group. The science teacher panel had a tough decision to make, but there could only be one winning group. By a clear majority, 8A, represented by Olivia, Jess, William and Rosie, came out on top. Their google meet recording was simply superb. A huge congratulations and well done to everyone that took part.

GEOGRAPHY - What better way to celebrate the end of term than with a (virtual) field trip? Google Arts and Culture has a carefully curated list of places and themes to explore, you could visit a museum if you have an interest in a particular aspect of geography (try the Natural History Museum, Museum of London, National Geographic Museum), or how about seeing inside real peoples' homes all around the world (make sure you look at the different toilets!). Make sure you reply to tell us where you've 'visited'! See our Facebook for all of the links you need.

This week is catch-up week across the school and the KS3 classes were guided by their French teacher to some extra practice tasks they could do should they choose to, in order to consolidate their language learning.
