Amazing – well done everyone

Before the Easter holidays Beech and Hazel class were set the task to create ‘something’ from a polystyrene egg. They created an ‘eggcellent’ sheep using cotton wool, glitter and lots of glue! We entered the egg into the School and Youth Group Easter Egg Decorating Competition with the West Midlands Safari Park and came 2nd! They had over 80 eggs enter the competition which are on display in the Discovery Trail at the Safari Park.

The children have won a 'Creatures in Your Classroom' experience which will take place on Thursday 21st April.

“DIG FOR VICTORY” FRIDAY’S IN 7P.

On Friday mornings 7P will be digging, weeding and planting outside in the gardening area. We are thinking about the Land Army during the war, when everyone had to help to grow food. We will be using home grown produce to cook some healthy meals.

Key Stage 3 Design Technology

Following the delivery of our new CAD/CAM equipment we have spared no time in implementing some fantastic projects across Key Stage 3, all of which have been really well received by pupils.

7P have been using 2d design (our computer design package) to produce some Easter egg packaging.

Our Year 9 groups have been using the new engraver/router to custom design a plastic top for a pencil box. They have then learnt about different wood joints and then used these new skills to construct their pencil box.

Both pupils and staff have been really impressed with the outcomes from these projects and we are looking forward to exploring and developing new and exciting CAD/CAM projects in the future!

We cannot thank parents enough for ensuring our pupils attend every day, we recently celebrated with an Assembly for pupils who had achieved 100% attendance for the Spring Term, 21 pupils from Primary Classes and 21 from Secondary Classes.

All those pupils will receive a £10 Argos voucher – WELL DONE!!

In the Summer Term we will be rewarding 100% attendance for THE YEAR with a prize draw where pupils have the chance to win a prize up to the value of £100 !!!

Information for parents…..

The school day starts at 8.45am and finishes at 3.00pm
