World Maths Day
We celebrated World Maths Day with a number of fun maths activities and a big maths scavenger hunt around the school for students.
Science Week
This year’s Science Week was a big success, students enjoyed having a science day within their classes, KS4 went to a science event with other schools. In recognition of Science Week, Lower School & KS3 also had a visit from a scientist who held a fun ’science party’ in the hall!
Multicultural Day
This term’s Multicultural Day focused on Kenya. Students took part in activities in their Key Stage groups taught by different teachers, which included fact finding and art activities, and a whole school quiz in the afternoon in House Teams.
World Book Day
Students enjoyed dressing up for World Book Day and recommending their favourite books this term, accompanied by World Book Day themed lessons, an assembly and a scavenger hunt!
Students also used their book vouchers, some classes chose for staff to pick them up and Nightingale went on a trip to Moon Books.
Work Experience & Internships
Our students have been on work experience this term, they attended places such as Monkton Nature Reserve, RSPCA and East Kent Railway. We would also like to introduce our new office intern, Charlie!
Lottie continues to be enjoy her internship at Academy fm.
Charity
We had, as one parent called it, a bit of a ‘rainbow week’ earlier on in the term! With a day for Ukraine, students and staff showed their support by wearing blue and yellow. The school donated £1000 to the Disaster Emergency Committee on behalf of the school community.
For Red Nose Day, students wore a mixture of red and non-school uniform in exchange for an optional donation. With parent and staffs’ generous donations combined with the school’s contribution, we raised £100. Thank you for your ongoing support and generosity.
The school also continues to donate monthly to local food banks and sponsors our two children, 9 yr old Freddy via Bibic, and Zaynab via Action Aid.

Congratulations Team Scott for winning this term’s House Games with their target throw skills!
