Posted on: 13/02/2025Maths FeastYesterday, 7 year 10s and I participated in the Maths Feast challenge alongside many other schools. It was a strenuous task to test one's mental capability and quick maths. Despite the many difficulties, my team and I persevered with the challenges and managed the completion of all the problems that were given to us. My team won 5th place and the other team representing EGA won 3rd place among 17 other schools. I am very pleased with the turn out of yesterday's events.- Almire year 10

Posted on: 22/01/2025Year 9 Art work on Public displayYear 9 artwork on public display During the summer term, Y9 EGA students took part in a workshop learning about anti-apartheid activism in the local area. Working collaboratively, students researched the impact 6 individuals had on the anti-apartheid movement and shaping the culture and identity of our present day community. The 6 portraits produced by Maram, Lorin, Elodie, Flo, Sophia and Asma are now on display outside the site of the new Anti-Apartheid legacy museum on Penton St. To have their artwork on display within the community is fantastic for our students and reflects the values of the EGA art department: giving our students the opportunity to create artwork that critically investigates the world around them, producing personal, meaningful and impactful artworks.

Posted on: 21/11/2024Outward Bound ResidentialWe hope our students are as proud of themselves as we are all of them .They have achieved so much, overcome huge obstacles and had a huge amount of fun, with some being away from home for the very first time. This residential has built their confidence, resilience and self esteem. As one student said, 'We can do this. We've done scarier things this week.' We hope this experience stays with our students and the next time they are faced with a challenge they have the self confidence to push through and achieve their goals

The peak was not only a destination but a reminder that with determi- nation and courage, we can rise above our fears, one step at a time.
