Posted on: 23/09/2026Trip to WhitstableThis week our Year 11 Geography students travelled to Whitstable to put their GCSE fieldwork skills into practice. The trip gave students the opportunity to collect their own data and investigate the impact of coastal processes and management on the local area. Students showed excellent enthusiasm and teamwork, approaching each task with curiosity and determination. The data collected will now be used in lessons to help students analyse their findings and prepare for the their GCSEs. A huge well done to all of our Year 11 geographers for their hard work and positive attitude throughout the trip!

Posted on: 16/07/2026New Year 8 Spanish projectIn our lessons we have been watching the movie Coco in Spanish and analyzing it. The movie Coco is about the Day of the Dead, a festival honoring the deceased which is celebrated in Mexico. It originated from the Aztecs. It is a joyful celebration where families come together to honour and celebrate their dead loved ones. They do this by putting their pictures up with offerings. People also paint their faces with colourful designs made to look like skulls. We also decorated paper skulls and here you can see some of them.

Posted on: 30/04/2026GCSE Geography tripFor our GCSE Geography trip, we visited Stratford to look at the regeneration in that area as it has seen a huge difference to how it looked before due to the Olympics that were held there. Our classes visited four different sites in the area which included: Carpenter Estate, Stratford Shopping Centre, Westfield Shopping Centre and East Village. All of these areas are important on how the regeneration of Stratford shaped the area. I loved the trip as we got to go shopping in Westfield and hang out with our friends! - Alia- Year 10
