Celebrations in X26 (Y11) & X27 (Y10)
We had SO many things to celebrate in our final KS4 community meeting of this half term!
From incredible amounts of praise points, to students identifying others working hard across sessions… and outstanding acts of kindness, we had SO many postcards to share from staff too!
See below some of the awesome things happening this term in Y10 & 11 – they’ve come back with a bang and done themselves SO proud!
Have a fabulous half term,

KS4 are SMASHING it!!!!
We had the opportunity to hold a Y10 & Y11 community meeting this morning to celebrate all the amazing stuff going on in each year group!
Take a look at the sheer amount of praise postcards from staff for our wonderful Key Stage 4 students. They shared their notices, praises and wonders; and also their own apologies, appreciations and stands.
Some awesome work going on at this point – keep being amazing!!!

UNBELIEVABLE work from KS4!
I’ve had the pleasure of spending a little more time in sessions this week with Y10 & Y11 – and I’ve seen some absolutely phenomenal work from X26 & X27!
X26 have had an amazing week across all sessions. Admiral smashed it out of the park in Miss Buckley’s English session – some incredible contributions from Max, and who knew Kolby could analyse poetry in so much detail?! Skipper have been brilliant this week too, especially in history – I’m hearing SO many positive comments about Y11 and their hard work!
We’ve launched Learning Labs this week, too – attendance at this has blown us away – I think for English, 80/100 students attended. These run on a 5 week cycle, so every session will help Y11 to get smart and achieve their potential. AMAZING!
In science this week, you could hear a pin drop as X27 Skipper focused so much with Mr Morrison on the work they were completing about atomic structure – not an easy topic – but every single student in there showed incredible respect – for each other and their learning environment! A special shout out this week to Noah, Billy and Nadia B – who have been absolutely brilliant in EVERY. SINGLE. SESSION. Keep it up!
With so much fantastic work going on, it’s no wonder X26 have earned a collective 226 praise points this term… but X27 are racing ahead with a collective 561 praise points. WOW!!!!
Keep showing everyone how wonderful we really are in Y10 & 11!!!

X27 Ethics – Piecing together the puzzle
Over the past few lessons X27 have been grappling with GCSE content regarding Christian Belief’s about the Creation story. We have embedded this further by splitting into groups and producing a jigsaw piece which symbolises one of the 7 days of creation.
Students then presented their thoughts in their groups regarding which day they think is most important. A fantastic discussion had by all! Well done for working hard Ethics!
