From PE …

During January, the students were set an optional PE challenge to complete the set daily workout or any workout of their choice and send in videos/photos to their PE teacher. We were so impressed with how many students completed/attempted the Cha-cha slide plank challenge, Baby shark abs challenge and Joe Wicks workouts! Well done to all of those students who sent in what they’ve been doing. In particular, 2 students went above and beyond and created a video of all the challenges they had done throughout January. Amazing work from Tayla-Mae in Year 7 and Bella in Year 8!

Year 10

Well done to all students in 10A and 10B GCSE PE classes for producing some fantastic work on ‘Aggression in Sport’ last week. Here are some brilliant pieces from Amelia Kaufman-Cook, Holly Hart, Jess Downing and Molly Barnard.

PE House Challenge

We are now encouraging students to get involved in the PE House Challenge of which House can walk/run/cycle the most KM’s in 3 weeks. Here are the current standings from last week!

Please see the poster for the challenge and it would be great if all students could contribute something, even the staff are getting very competitive!!

Mrs L Dann
Head of PE

From Maths …

From Music …

Congratulations to the following students:

Ruth Bull (Year 7) who got a distinction for her ABRSM Grade 5 Recorder exam
Megan Cave (Year 7) who got a merit for her ABRSM Grade 3 Flute exam

From Science …

Year 7

In science last week, 7VW learned about static electricity. Did you know that if you rubbed a balloon against your jumper, you can stick it to the wall?! See our scientific explanations below.

From PRE …

Year 9

In Philosophy, Religion and Ethics the Year 9 students have been researching a worldview that does not involve the belief in God: humanism. Here are some of the leaflets they have produced that explore the key principles and values of the humanist community.

From Italian …

This week our year 7s and 8s were set a more creative homework where they could choose one or two things from the ‘Italian cultural menu’. This offered them a choice of fun activities that allowed them to practise their Italian in ‘real’ situations, explore some Italian culture and an optional break from screen time. There have been some wonderful examples of students engaging with this, such as new recipes tried, new Italian music explored, Italian film reviews and even a Powerpoint on an Italian football team. See below some examples!

From Year 8 …

Here are some of the entries to the Yr8 mask design competition. We discussed in assembly that we all wear masks of different kinds – We discussed the ‘I’m fine’ mask and the year group was challenged, as their first Cre8itivity competition, to design their own mask. Huge congratulations go to the winner: Alice Lynn and runner up; Grace McMenamin. WELL DONE!

STEM Challenge 1 – Density 

Well done to everyone who participate in the Density STEM Challenged. Students were asked to make a density column using different liquids you find in your home.

The winners are:

Year 7: Emily Man and Taniska Powar (joint winners)

Year 8 – Nefeli Tsamili

Special prize for teamwork – Lucy and Abbie Norris

KS3 Students can find details of the next STEM Challenge on Google Classroom, due 22nd February.

Good Luck!
