A Whole New World

Author Profile
18 December 2024

Geoff Hewitt

Exploring history through immersive learning! From Vikings at Murton Park to Shakespeare’s magic, C31’s Expedition journeyed through the Roman, Medieval, Early Modern & Industrial eras. With hands-on activities, creative writing, and expert insights, they connected past & present in unforgettable ways.

At their Presentation of Learning they recreated a historical timeline for parents and staff and a variety of drama performances as well as student led teaching sessions to demonstrate our learning. 

Their knowledge culminated in a piece of narrative writing, independently written by students to reflect the life and experiences of a different person in history. The book is available to purchase here.

Crew Spencer/Crew Dufton – Litter pick DOFE

Author Profile
17 December 2024

realsmartadmin admin

  This morning, Crew Spencer and Crew Dufton rolled up their sleeves and took part in a litter-picking session as part of their stewardship responsibilities. The activity not only demonstrated their commitment to caring for their local environment but also contributes towards their Duke of Edinburgh (DofE) Award. Working together as a team, the students showed great effort and enthusiasm, taking pride in making a visible difference in the area. Stewardship is a core part of our values, and this morning’s activity highlighted the positive impact our Crews can have when they work together for a shared goal. Well done to everyone involved—this is a fantastic example of leadership, teamwork, and community spirit in action!

Yesterday, Crew White held a bake sale to raise funds for their chosen charity, The Eve Merton Trust. Alongside a delicious selection of baked goods like brownies, cookies, and flapjacks, we also sold hot chocolates topped with cream and marshmallows, which were a big hit! Thanks to the hard work of Crew members and the generosity of everyone who came along, we raised nearly £200 for the charity. A big thank you to everyone who baked, bought treats, or enjoyed a hot chocolate. Crew White is proud to support The Eve Merton Trust and its amazing work.

Sincerest apologies- end of term tiredness and jet lag is in full force! It seems there has been some confusion over the start time for the Presentation of Learning this evening. To confirm, it will start at 4pm and end at approximately 5:30pm.  Thanks ever so much for your understanding and support. We look forward to taking you on an immersive tour of History!
