In January 2023, students in Year 9 studied a joint HUMAN and STEAM expedition called ‘You give me fever’ where students had to answer the guiding question:
Is Science enough to save lives?
The final product was a charity drive in order to raise money for local health charities. We did lots of school events in order to raise money for the charity chosen by each school. We conducted a sponsored walk, bake sale, PJ day, sponsored silence and a bikeathon.
For our presentation of learning, we created short flip book animations that were projected in XP East. There were zones set up outside around XPD made to look like the time periods of each case study (Black Death, Cholera Outbreak, Spanish Flu & Aids). We were dressed up in period costumes and spoke to the audience about the science and history or each case study. Students also displayed their artwork and sketchbooks to showcase the skills they had acquired this term. At the end of the PoL we presented the funds raised for equipment at NHS Doncaster.
It has been wonderful to partner with Frenchgate on this important project – we can’t thank them enough for giving our Schools the opportunity to make their own pledges and display them for all to see within the Centre.

We are so incredibly proud of our Y11s – what a start to GCSEs! Their conduct, attitude and focus has been amazing.
Our latest planner includes details of exams, revision sessions (including after-school sessions) and the half-term revision timetable – all sessions will run at XP East.
Please note that there has been a slight change to the original timetable; students will now have an in-school Maths revision session scheduled Thursday afternoon and English revision Friday morning. Y11 students can leave school at 11.30 on Friday, although school will be open until 13.30 for those who wish to stay.
Thank you.
C28 are on route back to Doncaster! We estimate to arrive back at 5.55-6pm. There is some traffic coming out of Leeds. We will keep you posted!
Please note the carousel training day will take place at school so lunch arrangements will be as usual.
As emailed out to parents, we have an exciting opportunity to visit West Yorkshire Playhouse Theatre in Leeds on Thursday 18th May to see ‘Of Mice and Men’ (our anchor text for our current expedition).
Students will need to be at school at the normal time, but they will need to bring a packed lunch as we will be leaving school at approximately 12pm. If your child receives free school meals, we will provide this for them.
The cost will be covered by school, and we aim to return to school at 5:30pm.
Best wishes,
Y8 Expedition Team.
