Dear Parents & Carers, Welcome to the final Intrepidus magazine of the 2018-2019 academic year. Our students have had a fantastic year, excelling in their studies, performing arts, sports and more. As always, the following pages will keep you updated with the fantastic work our staff and students have done this term.

I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate our Intrepidus badge winners this year. This is the highest accolade awarded at the academy, and this year’s very deserving winners are: Year 7 - Irene (7 Gupta) & Gabriel (7 Pinter) Year 8 - Eliana (8 Yousafzai) & Daniel (8 Bonhoeffer) Year 9 - Yousra (9 Hamilton) & Navid (9 Hamilton) The Intrepidus badges for Year 10 and Year 12 students on work experience this week will be announced and awarded next year.

I’ll close by thanking each and every student and parent for your support this year.

Best wishes,

David Benson Principal

FOUNDER STUDENTS FINISH THEIR GCSE S On Friday 28th June our founder cohort of students celebrated the end of their GCSE exams with a Year 11 prom at the Rembrandt Hotel in Knightsbridge.

Donning formal attire (and looking fabulous!) students enjoyed a buffet meal and party. The long awaited prom awards (voted for by the students) were presented by Mr Kirby and prom hostesses Amani (11 Oliver) and Parmida (11 Winfrey).

Awards ranged from classics such as “most likely to become Prime Minister” (Fatima - 11 Berners-Lee) and “most likely to win an Olympic gold” (Jeriel - 11 Kidston), to some more contemporary awards including “most likely to become ‘insta’ famous” (Cheyenne - 11 Berners-Lee) and “most likely to become a motivational speaker” (Sara 11 Berners-Lee).

Everyone at KAA is so proud of our first year group for their focus and resilience they’ve shown over the past two years whilst studying for their GCSEs. We now look forward to seeing students on results day this summer.

GCSE results day is on Thursday 22nd August, and school will be open from 9am for students to pick up their results. For those who have applied to KAA sixth form, please remember that you must enrol with the sixth form team on results day. For those who have applied to other colleges and apprenticeships, our careers team and representatives from local colleges will be available to help with your enrolment on other courses.

PERFORMING & CREATIVE ARTS

This year’s summer production of Hairspray wowed audiences as the performing arts team put on the biggest and the best musical yet in KAA history.

Set in 1960s Baltimore (and with accompanying accents from the full cast), Hairspray follows teenager Tracy (played by Irene, 7 Gupta), whose dream is to dance on The Corny Collins Show. Her parents (Navid 9 Hamilton and Finn - 7 Stoppard), with fantastic comic delivery, warn her against disappointment and tell her not to dream so big. Tracey doesn't listen, and accompanied by her best friend Penny (Amira - 9 Murray), auditions for the show, falls in love with teenage heart throb Link Larkin (Gabriel - 7 Pinter) and is taught to dance by the ultra stylish Seaweed (Yonis - 8 Jones). When Tracy wins a role on the show, she becomes a celebrity overnight. But Tracey is shocked by the prejudice and racism shown by the show’s producer Velma Von Tussle (Olivia / Adea 10 Baker) and joins forces with Motormouth Maybelle (Eliana, 8 Yousafzai) and her friends to use The Corny Collins Show to campaign for social change.

Students from Year 7 to 12 spent the spring and summer term rehearsing for the show during enrichment across music, drama, and dance disciplines. On Tuesday 9th and Wednesday 10th July the cast performed two matinee performances for students from Oxford Gardens, Avondale and Colville primary schools, followed by two evening shows for a full audience of students, staff and parents.

Our thanks to the director Miss Miller and the whole performing arts team, our talented student technicians Musa (10 Lennon) and Noah (10 Baker) for running the lighting and sound for all four shows, and the entire cast for their d ed i cat io n a n d enthusiasm in creating our best summer production yet.

Following the BBC2 documentary The Choir featuring the KAA choir and choirmaster Gareth Malone, which was watched by over 1.5 million viewers in the Spring term, the KAA choir were invited to open the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) awards on Sunday 12th May. The choir opened the show accompanied by Gareth on piano with a cover of London Grammar’s Strong.

We were blown away by the way all students rose to the occasion and put on a fantastic performance after having time for just two choir rehearsals to prepare after the Easter break.

Suad (11 Balon) performed spoken word at the intro of the song, and Adil (10 Nijinsky), Irene (7 Gupta) and Lyric (10 Chaplin) had solos in the arrangement. This was a truly once in a lifetime opportunity as Gareth and the choir were singled out as the one performance for the annual show.

Students performed in front of an audience packed with TV stars, including Ant & Dec, Benedict Cumberbatch, Holly Willoughby and Graham Norton.

They also had the chance to walk the red carpet before the show.

When we arrived for a sound check it was terrifying as we could see place cards on the seats in the theatre showing us who was coming.

So. Many. Famous. People!

The whole experience was breath-taking. There so many things that seems unreal. It shows how far we came from the very beginning and the experience the choir has gained through working with Gareth Malone.

When we final all got on stage to perform and got into our places, you could almost sense the buzz on stage. It all went by so quickly! We finished, everyone was so proud of our journey as a choir.

The BAFTA awards by Irene (7 Gupta) A selection of students who took part in the Big Show were chosen to perform at the Royal Festival Hall. I remember everyone on the coach, we were so ecstatic (but of course nervous too!) - after all we were on our way to the BAFTAs!

by Miss Cockell On Friday 7th June the KAA Choir travelled to BBC Wogan House to perform live on the Jeremy Vine Show on Radio 2.

We were invited ahead of the BBC's Music Day in September to discuss the power of music upon our students and our recent experience working with Gareth Malone. Always up for a challenge, the choir was tasked with performing two songs from 'The Big Show' completely acapella - that is, with no instrumental accompaniment or backing tracks!

The students performed Memories, celebrating the early days of secondary school, and the chorus of the finale song, with its uplifting line 'with our arms around our friends, keep on holding till the end'.

By Miss Cockell Both songs were performed with confidence, accurate pitch and clear diction.

Lyric (10 Chaplin) and Olivia (10 Baker) then spoke eloquently to Jeremy about the power of music and explained how they have been able to express themselves through singing and the creative arts.

Thank you so much to the students for their professionalism and dedication.

PERFORMING & CREATIVE ARTS 7

by Mr Dunning On Thursday 23rd May the Dance and Art departments hosted a showcase of student work to celebrate the achievements of our students this year.

Parents and carers joined staff and students for an exhibition of student art work from 5.30pm to 6pm, featuring work from students in years 7 to 11.

The art exhibition was followed by a dance show and awards in the theatre. Fifty students performed 20 different dances in a full production which highlighted the talent and skill of the KAA dancers. Of these 20 performances, 9 were choreographed by the students - a clear credit to their dedication and talent. The dance staff were proud to watch each student perform to the audience, showing all of the hard work they had put into the show during the month beforehand.

The show also allowed the opportunity for the dance team to give awards to students for their work in dance throughout the year. This included KS3 Dancer of the year Ana (8 Truth), KS4 Dancer of the Year Isha (10 Hepburn) and KS5 Dancer of the Year, Miriam (12 Tutu)! A huge congratulations to all the dancers who took part, and thank you for your hard work all year.

As always, the Dance Department have been incredibly busy this year, ensuring that KAA students have as many opportunities to get involved in dance as possible!

In addition to the fantastic Dance Showcase and Hairspray production this term, the dance department have also been busy with the Intrepidus Dance Company and GCSE Dance workshops.

In June over 20 members of Intrepidus Dance Company have started to complete the Bronze level of the Arts Awards. This is an extra qualification that the students have elected in extracurricular clubs, showing their dedication and love of dance. For this award, the students have written reviews on the live performances they have seen, and have also done independent research into a dancer or choreographer that inspires them.

To complete the award, the students will choreograph and teach to each other, among other tasks. The students have been really enjoying the process of gaining their Arts Award, and we hope that they all keep working hard to eventually go for Gold!

Throughout the year, prospective and current GCSE Dance students have had the opportunity to experience additional professional performances and workshops. This has included traveling to watch ‘Infra’ in November, performed

by The Royal Ballet. This was especially valuable to the students as ‘Infra’ is one of the set works in the GCSE specification.

The students also had the opportunity to gain insight into another of the set works, ‘A Linha Curva’ in December, when Rambert Dance Company came to KAA and delivered a workshop.

Students from Year 9 and 10 were challenged with choreographic tasks and developed a great understanding of the movement style which will support their upcoming GCSEs.

Art department news by Miss John

On Tuesday 18th June our year 9 students created paintings based on the theme ‘Tolerance and Diversity’ as part of the Ship of Tolerance workshops with artists Ilya and Emilia Kabakov.

This project aims to connect children of different continents, cultures and identities through art and create a dialogue about diversity and tolerance.

Through a program of in school workshops, students will spend a time discussing the meaning of tolerance and the value of being exposed to different cultures, races and ideas. They will share their thoughts and produce drawings of vision of tolerance and peace. The work students produced will form part of a ship with sails made of 139 drawings that will be selected from art workshops in 30 schools, refugee groups, local community art organisations.

9

In September, The Kabakov Foundation and Art Action Change will bring The Ship of Tolerance to London as the centrepiece art installation of Totally Thames 2019. The ship will be built at the Royal Docks in the London Borough of Newham and then located by the Millennium bridge. We look forward to seeing our students’ artwork sail down the Thames in September.

KAA’s second annual A Level Art exhibition took place on Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th July at Maxilla Studios, with a private view on Thursday 11th July.

The artwork exhibited this year included A Level work and a selection of exceptional GCSE pieces, exploring themes of identity, light, reflection and environment.

Working with local artists from ACAVA, year 12 students curated the gallery space to showcase the progress they have made throughout the year, and how they have developed into young artists. The work displayed demonstrates our students’ skill and conceptual understanding; they produced personal, reflective responses, using materials and techniques to communicate their ideas effectively.

Students worked on sculpture and self portrait pieces with Clare Burnett, Nadine Mahoney and Nicole Morris. The work produced over a five-week period was in response to ideas based on the themes the artist’s presented or the artist’s practice.

The students were set the task to collaborate in small groups or work individually to produce a final outcome and learn some exciting new techniques.

The student’s worked really well with the artist and think you’ll agree that the work they have produced looks fantastic!

In the Summer 2 term our Year 10 Fine Art GCSE students took part in a workshop with ACAVA studios working with three professional artists.

The Summer 1 term was host to the school’s much anticipated fifth and penultimate major house competition: house debating.

by Miss Rose

Following the heats, in which we heard why video games are not as bad as we might think and how reality TV may be more toxic than we even realise, the results came in and it was Angelou and Pankhurst that pipped the other houses to the sought after finals. This meant that these two houses would be fighting for 1st place in the following week's final, while Franklin and Honeyball would be battling it out for 3rd and 4th place.

The final rolled around on Thursday 23rd May, with all teams debating the motion ‘that any form of protest which disrupts the lives of others should be illegal in the UK’, while the rest of the school watched around the building through a live stream.

The final was a display of fiercely penned rhetoric and skill from all houses, with arguments ranging from obscure historical events, to pertinent issues of today such as Extinction Rebellion and Black Lives Matter. The passion and thought was second to none and, by the end, every student was yet more proof that KAA is full of young people who truly care and are going to make a difference to our society.

After impassioned debate full of flair and challenge that would put our country’s politicians through their paces, Angelou came out on top. Huge congratulations to the winning team; Nora (9 Farah), Ahmed (8 Yousafzai), Badee (7 Graham) and Rami (8 Yousafzai).

A big well done to all students involved, it takes courage and resilience to research, plan and perform such impressive speeches. The winning team showed Intrepidus at its finest.

Elliot Warren, Olivia Brady, Nicola Alexis and Natalie Jennings gave detailed feedback and comments to each house.

Pankhurst - 3rd place - 10,000 points

HOUSE COMPETITIONS

Art and Design Portraits by Miss John What an exciting year it has been for the art department with the launch of the underwater installations, ‘selfie’ portraits and t-shirt design competition. The level of creativity and quality of entries into each of the three competitions has been amazing this year. To end the year, the art department set the challenge for students to create their own ‘selfie’ portrait. Rose Macdonald (Year 8) showed outstanding skill and imagination to produce a winning piece of work for Franklin. A big thank you to all the students that participated in this year’s Art and Design house competition. We cannot wait to see what next year brings!

Computer Science by Mr Crook At the start of the academic year Computer Science students were asked to create an interactive version of the word Intrepidus. Students could approach this in any way that they saw fit. The winning entry came from Daniel (8 Truth). Daniel explored a number of ideas and set an ambitious, creative goal for a fuller project. He has broken the problem into smaller steps and has demonstrated resilience in pursuit of his idea.

Following this, students were asked to remix a retro game on scratch. The winner was Maha (7 Hansbury).

Swimming Gala by Miss Thompson With swimming making a return to the PE curriculum this year at KAA it was time to bring back the annual swimming gala. The PE department were overwhelmed at the enthusiasm of the competitors who showed fantastic commitment and organisation in being fully prepared for the after school event.

Year 7 & 8 were certainly well represented and had highly competitive races. The crowd also provided supportive motivation to all competitors. There was some stand out performances from Rama (Y7), David (Y8), Tashi (Y9) and Bobby (Y10).

The afternoon was dominated by the Franklin swimmers, even with Honeyball’s last minute relay success it was a comfortable win for Franklin. Well done to all who took part, it was brilliant to see such a variety of students at this sporting event.

Ready, Steady, Cook!

Winners: Franklin

On Friday 12th July our Year 7, 8, 9, 10 and 12 headed to the Linford Christie Stadium for our fifth annual Sports Day house competition.

With 20,000 house points up for grabs, Sports Day always proves a key point in the final push for the house cup. With every student signed up for a least one event, it was an action packed day with track events ranging from the newly added 60m sprint to the 800m race, and field events including tug of war, javelin and high jump.

As always our staff were not afraid to show the Intrepidus spirit and get stuck in to the staff events.

Pankhurst staff came off victorious against Franklin in the staff tug of war and students were gripped by the last leg of the staff relay which saw a photo finish between Mr Campbell (Franklin) and Mr Cyrus (Angelou) - with Franklin just snatching the victory.

The students displayed fantastic resilience and Intrepidus, with a huge number of new school records set (all listed opposite). Special mention to Jayden (10 Lennon), who broke numerous Year 10 records!

Students are awarded a medal for first, second or third place, and points are accumulated for all participation from 10 for a win to 1 for 8th place.

Students competed well, but the other houses couldn’t prevent Franklin from stealing a third consecutive Sports Day win with 8,310 points securing them the 20,000 house points! Honeyball took second place with 7,610 points, earning them 15,000 house points. Angelou came in just behind Honeyball with 7,470 points. Pankhurst came fourth with 6,870 points.

Well done to all students (and staff) who took part and our huge thanks to the PE department for organising the day.

TRIPS & WORKSHOPS

by Miss Green

This summer 12 brave year 8 students have embarked on the DebateBox challenge. Innovative and exclusive to our community, DebateBox is a program which seeks to develop young people's oracy skills and personal discipline through combining the practice of boxing with debating. Each week students have been going to the Harrow Club and working with talented DebateBox mentors and the coach from the Cuban Boxing Academy.

David (8 Tatchell) said: "In DebateBox we learn about the positions of a debate and exactly, in greater detail, what each position does. We also learn how to judge a debate. It's helped me with my English speaking skills as well as my public speaking in general. In the boxing section, we do a warm up that consists of boxing drills. After that, we learn combinations on the punching bag and pads. Boxing has helped me with my co-ordination and confidence. It's really fun and proactive."

I hope the students taking part are as proud of themselves as we are of them. Their dedication and enthusiasm has been tangible across the term and I have no doubt that their achievements will transfer to their academic work and beyond. Well done.

Geography students have shown true Intrepidus spirit this academic year with house competitions, enrichments and interventions they have been involved in, and most crucially through the GCSE fieldtrips this term.

In the Summer term, our year 10s braved pouring rain on Monday 10th June and intense sunshine on Tuesday 11th June during our field trip to Eastbourne.

We began the day at Beachy Head where we climbed the highest chalk sea cliff in the UK (531 feet above sea level), giving spectacular views of the coast. We then walked down to Holywell to see first-hand the coastal management scheme protecting the coastal town behind it.

Next up was the most crucial geography of the day: students carried out a bi-polar analysis on each coastal management scheme, completed a few questionnaires and successfully measured out a beach profile and analysed beach sediment - all vital skills for their geography GCSE!

TRIPS & WORKSHOPS

Our Duke of Edinburgh programme is now growing year on year thanks to donations from our KAA Intrepidus Trust supporters and the hard work of Mr Meighen and Miss Armitage leading the programme.

This year 40 Year 10 students completed their Bronze Award expedition in May, and 10 Year 11 and Sixth Form students will complete their Silver expedition this weekend. As the programme grows, we now have 50 year 9 students registered to begin their Bronze award next academic year.

by Miss Armitage Bronze Duke of Edinburgh participants in Year 10 completed their assessed DofE expedition in the Surrey Hills on the 3rd and 4th of May. Setting off on their routes in teams in the morning, our students were enthusiastic for the challenge that lay ahead.

As the realisation hit and they faced the confusing challenge of navigating through a thick forest (quite different from their practice expedition in Hyde Park!) all groups realised the importance of their compasses. They showed great team work in cheering on the members of their teams who were struggling and soon were back on the (proverbial and literal) right path.

After their competitive training in Hyde Park, their tent making skill and speed was impressive, motivated by trangea-roasted marshmallows before bed.

The early morning start the next day saw most teams tired and slightly soggy. However, this was the day where they truly demonstrated the team working, navigating and camp making skills they have been practicing this year.

We were impressed with their resilience and their support for each other and are happy that so many have been successful in this aspect of the award! We look forward to our students progressing to the Silver Award next year.

TRIPS & WORKSHOPS 17

As we go to press, a group of our Year 11 students are currently in Delhi, India with our history teachers on a once in a lifetime trip before starting their A levels in September.

Leila (11 Dyson) wrote the following about the trip before setting off, and will be providing a full write up about the experience on their return: “A small group of Year 11 students are travelling to Ladakh, a region in India for two weeks, where we’ll explore its vibrant Buddhist culture, in Ladakh’s largest town of Leh, and complete a 9 day hike through the Himalayas. We will be guided by an all-women tour guide company, set up by the local women to bring in income, at that time of year when most of the men in the region are in the cities for work. On each day of our hike we will be staying with a different household; enjoying their food, their cultures and their rich histories, whilst getting a real feel for what life is like in a developing country.

It is an extraordinary opportunity to escape the chaos of London life and explore what will certainly be a culture shock for many of us. For two weeks we will be living almost solely from the contents of our bags (with very limited opportunities to wash our clothes) and with means of washing ourselves that are far more basic than the luxuries we enjoy at home on a daily basis. I’m also certain that most of us will suffer from corner shop withdrawal at some point; a brief moment of craving something that we soon realise we can’t just pop down the road to buy.

However much our privileged London perspective has fragmented our view of the wider world, I am sure that as we take our next step towards adulthood, this chance to explore one of the most rural regions on Earth will open our eyes to the sheer diversity of living and culture that exists on our planet.”

Our huge thanks to every donor so far making this incredible journey possible for our Year 11 students. You can donate towards this Ladakh trip here: https:// www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/olivia-boyle.

SPORTS

by Miss Paine Our annual rowing regatta took place again this July to help bring another fantastic year for Sports at KAA to an exciting conclusion.

It was a glorious Monday afternoon down on the river Thames by Hammersmith Bridge. We had 4 very strong boats made up of our very own Elite Rowing Squad, our Y10 GCSE rowers and some Y10 core PE rowers. Fulham Reach Boat Club were out in full force to officiate our most competitive regatta yet!

Pankhurst got off to a very strong start being the first team to win two out of two races. But that only spurred the other houses on, and by round three Honeyball and Angelou had also won 2 races each! This left us with a three way final between Pankhurst, Honeyball & Angelou.

The race was on over the 400m race to the pontoon.

All three boats got off to a great start but Honeyball pulled out in front. Pankhurst were literally an oars length behind when they both sprinted towards the line. Honeyball held strong and finished with a comfortable lead, Pankhurst 2nd and Angelou 3rd!

Our thanks to the Fulham Reach Boat Club staff, donors to the KAA Intrepidus Trust, and Miss Paine for leading the rowing programme at KAA.

Follow KAA__PE on Twitter and Instagram to keep up with all the latest KAA sports news!

All houses should be very proud as the standard of rowing was excellent and all of the students left with big smiles on their faces, calluses on their palms and well deserved burgers in their hands!!
