creating a garden and forming a junk band. The pupils also spent focused time on one of six areas of study: coral reefs, coastlines, rainforests, air, oceans and rubbish. Parents were then invited into the school at the end of the week so see exhibitions of the children’s work.
The idea behind the theme week is to develop pupil-centred learning, their creativity, collaboration and resourcefulness skills.
Past themed-weeks include Brazil (2016), Hull (2017), History (2018), Invention (2019) and Japan (2020).
‘Longest Day’ golf challenge
Year 13 students Jacob, Finlay, William and Harry took part in the Macmillan’s Longest Day Golf Challenge on Tuesday 28 June.
The challenge entailed a marathon of walking and 16 hours of golf in one day. The friends were motivated to take part as they all experienced the impact of cancer on their families and friends. Any support has been greatly appreciated. Well done!
