Over the last two weeks History and Ethics have taken C27 to the Holocaust museum. We are so proud of the compassion that was shown by all students and appreciated having the opportunity to meet with survivors of the Holocaust and hear their stories.
Please see details of Y10’s upcoming fieldwork to the National Holocaust Museum.
As part of our Crew Charity work, Crew Rashford decided to spread some love and joy by creating some Valentine’s gifts for residents at one of our local care homes, The Oaklands.
This is something crew have always enjoyed doing and are really enthusiastic to give something back to our community by talking and spending time with residents at Oaklands would have been amazing, we have visited places such as Age Well in the past and really enjoyed these activities.
We spent the morning baking cupcakes (with only a couple of baking disasters!), decorating biscuits and creating some blooming gorgeous bouquets.
Crew were really excited to deliver their lovely treats and spend time with the residents, but the snowy weather meant we had to postpone our plans. However, Mrs Parker and Mrs Watson were able to drive up and deliver Crew’s lovely treats.
We left with promises to return in the Spring. We know that Crew are looking forward to spending time with the lovely residents.
Happy Valentines 🧡💛❤️💜
It’s always a pleasure to share praises and appreciations in our community meetings, and this morning was no exception. Y10 have had an absolutely amazing start to the school year and we shared lots of praises from staff, as well as hearing appreciations from students to fellow students for being kind, working hard and helping each other in sessions.
We also had a few apologies made for behaviours that don’t reflect our character values and I would like to praise those students for showing the integrity and courage to put things right.
It’s so encouraging to hear that some students are starting to think ahead to Y11 and are already creating revision resources to help them through the next 2 years.
Well done, Y10!
Mrs Parker 🙂
Hoping you can all join us Wednesday 19th July for year 9 final celebration of learning for the year! 4:30-5:30!
We are excited to be taking our Y9 students to see a production of Lord of the Flies on Thursday 30th March. Please see the letter below for full details.
If you have any questions, please contact our English Lead, Mrs Desborough – [email protected] – or your child’s Crew Leader.
I wanted to share some of the beautiful work that 9 Explorer has been producing in their art sessions.
I am so impressed with the craftmanship and quality.
Year 9’s first expedition of the year is called ‘Another Brick in the wall’ which has the guiding question ‘How are our lives affected by structures?’
They have created their own expedition title pages:
They have been looking at the street artist Phlegm and reproducing their own work in his style as well as an artist research page.
As you can see – it’s looking great!
As ever, we will be kicking off our first week back at school by regrouping and rebooting Crew.
On Wednesday 31st August our C27 (new Y9) students will be going on a coastal walk to Flamborough.
Students should arrive at school between 8am-8.15am so that we can leave at 8.30am. We are aiming to be back at school by 3.30pm, but will keep you updated on the day.
All students will be expected to bring the Outdoor Kit listed below:
For further information or questions please email your child’s crew leader.
Thanks!
On Wednesday we embarked on a master chef challenge to make Sausage and Pasta Bake.
I think is safe to say that they rose to challenge and produced 3* Michelin star meal.
Each of them utilised their culinary skills that they have been learning, these ranged from knife skills, kitchen safety and teamwork.
I am looking forward to seeing what other delights each of them produced.
Very impressed, well done to each and everyone of you.
Tomorrow E27, both classes, will be taking part in a walk around Doncaster on a planned route to find positive things about our city as part of their expedition.
Our route will take us into Town Centre for a short period. We will be leaving school at 9:15 and be back for lunch.
Any questions please email [email protected]
Thanks in advance
Miss Ibbotson
