Delicious Food, bug boxes and lots of thank yous

Listen

Year 11 Mock Practical’s – Hospitality and Catering

I just wanted to share with you some of the photos from the Mock Practical’s the Year 11s did last week… these are a mere snippet of the photos we took over the two days. They worked so well and did us all proud!

Annie

Let me introduce Phoebe Denbow, our Miss Hannigan, in rehearsals for our Year 7 production of Annie.  Phoebe joined us through the PAA audition places at the start of Year 7.

Appreciation postcards

This week staff and students have been writing appreciation cards to each other.  We are all very thankful for what others within our community do to support and help us.  These cards are a small token of that appreciation.

Year 7 Bug Boxes

Great to see our Year 7 students completing their bug box practical work ready to take home for the Easter holidays. I’m sure there will be lots of happy bugs making use of these wonderful creations now that spring is well on the way!

Easter Egg Hunt!

Our Year 9s came into school today in mufti as a reward for their amazing effort and behaviour. Mr Grinsill told them that they would have an Easter egg hunt at break time and they would be searching for a giant egg filled with sweets. At the end of a busy break he then let the students know it was just an April Fools. He was not a popular man!! He redeemed himself by repeating the challenge during break 2, but this time with a real egg!

30 day challenge

This week Hannah Carr in Year 9 has completed the 30 day fitness challenge posed by Devon School Games.  She has now uploaded her form as part of the Devon Virtual Games.  One of the activities she enjoyed was her Doga sessions!
