From Music …

KS3

In music some year 7, 8 & 9 classes were researching Motown Records and its impact on Civil Rights in the USA. Thank you to all the students who presented their work to class.

Year 10

These performances are part of year 10 GCSE students lockdown assignments. Ebony Palmer performed ‘Feeling Good’ by Nina Simone and Katie Warburton was drumming to ‘Little Monsters’ by Royal Blood.

From Photography …

Year 12 Photography Assessment based on Still life Food Photography.

Studying Photography in a lock down is incredibly challenging however, Year 12 have been innovative and creative in finding various approaches to achieving some magnificent outcomes.

From Art …

Year 10

Year 10 have been working incredibly hard over lockdown and have been focusing on cakes and sweets as their theme. These are just some of the brilliant outcomes that have been submitted. Great work!

Miss Sykes and Mrs Harmer

From Russian …

Russian students in Year 8 undertook research on winter in Russia. A fabulous array of work was produced by the students. Clara Thorp and Grace West created PowerPoint presentations packed with interesting facts and photographs. Ellie Simpson made a wonderful poster telling what to pack for winter in Russia! Megan Hughes chose to write the information in her exercise book telling not only what clothes are needed to survive a Russian winter but also what winter activities are the most popular. Teah Gregory, Sasha Sole and Jessica Deasy produced amazing information leaflets adorned with brilliant hand drawn pictures. Well done, girls!

From French …

THE GREAT FRENCH LANGUAGE CHALLENGE

Please take a few minutes to have a look at all the work our students have been creating for the Great French Language Challenge. A lot of research and creativity has gone into this task.

Merci,

Mme Ainge
