We welcomed Box Clever to join us again to bring a modern rendition of A Christmas Carol as part of our expedition, ‘Small Change’.
What a fantastic performance once again, complete with workshop at the end for the students to get involved and learn more about the characters and language!
Great to see students courageously getting stuck in and helping to bring it to life.
Students had a fantastic day becoming Sport Activators for the new initiative from the FA and Youth Sport Trust. Looking very smart in their new Hoodies. Great opportunities to come for girls sport

Thank you Miss O’Grady
E26 and E25 have been learning about warm and cool colours in their X Block art sessions.
They have a really good understanding of this, as you can see from their work!
Thank you to the family and friends who attended last night’s Presentation of Learning where students spoke so beautifully about why we still need charity. A massive thank you to those of you who donated food items for the Given Freely, Freely Given emergency food and clothes bank at St John the Evangelist Church, Balby. We will be accepting donations of food, clothing and household items until the end of term.
It’s all go for E24 at the moment! As mentioned last night, their next Presentation of Learning will be on Thursday 12th December, 4.30-5.30pm where they will be presenting their work and findings on their current STEAM expedition ‘Slow Down’ which gave them the opportunity to explore answers to the guiding question:
How Can Maths and Physics Save Life?
As ever, we thank you for your support on these evenings which are a crucial part of your child’s learning. We look forward to seeing you there!
E25 completed their sponsored walk/run today to raise money for the Conversation Club to support our expedition.
It was great to see a different side to the students out of the classroom – stand out students for effort were:
Ava
Woody
Zak
Zach
Charlie
Tom
Callum A
Jacob
Aaron
These students really worked hard to run as far as they could – reaching 3 laps! 
I’d really like to appreciate all the students for their involvement in this – it was an enjoyable afternoon and we got some great footage to use in our final product documentary. The money raised will be put to good use to support the asylum seekers at the Conversation Club. We can’t wait to find out the grand total when combined with the money raised from XP
Please can all sponsor forms and money be handed into school by Friday 6th December – thank you to those who have done so already!
PLEASE NOTE THE CHANGE OF DATE FOR THIS EVENT (now on Tuesday 17th December, not Thursday 19th as previously stated)
E26 (Year 7) will be holding the Presentation of Learning for their current expedition ‘Over the Top!’ on Tuesday 17th December, 5.30-6:30pm at XP East.
Students have been working extremely hard throughout their expedition and have been working on answering the guiding question: ‘Does war unite or divide?’
This will be their first formal opportunity at XP East to share their learning with parents, carers and visitors and we very much look forward to seeing you there.
Thank you to our E24 and X24 parents of students in Year 9 that have paid the initial deposit for the Madrid 2020 optional fieldwork visit. We’d like to respectfully remind the parents of students that have indicated they wish to join us, that the initial deposit payment required by the travel company to secure the booking must be made via the Parentpay portal by 3.30 p.m. tomorrow afternoon, Tuesday 3rd December please.
In the event that insufficient payments are received, then regretfully the proposed visit to Madrid cannot take place and any payments paid so far will be refunded.
Thank you.
Mr Pearson
Amazing efforts from the Cheerleading squad at the competition at Campsmount. We qualified for the South Yorkshire school games. Massive achievement for our first ever competition.
