Week beginning 10.6.19 - Sports Week

It's fair to say we've had an interesting week, with the awful weather changing plans most days. Still, we made the most of it and all the students had lots of opportunities to try new things, which they thoroughly enjoyed. Well done to everyone who did their best and showed great sportsmanship along the way!

Week beginning 29.4.19

Key Stage 4 have had three days of work-related activities this week. While everyone in Year 11 and 12 went out for Work Experience, Year 10s took part in some activities around getting ready for work and team-building. It was a very busy week and every single one of our students pushed themselves and overcame personal challenges. I am very proud of all of them and we have had some very encouraging feedback from employers, parents/carers and the students themselves.

On Wednesday, the whole school experienced a music afternoon courtesy of Mrs Lakin and Inspire. We had a wonderful time taking part in a range of activities and ended the afternoon with some meditation.

Here we are working with 'Chrome Music Lab'.

Week beginning 11.3.19

Half of Wollaton Class are very lucky to have the opportunity to go horse-riding every Wednesday. Here are some snapshots of the students getting to grips with the equipment and gaining confidence on horseback.

Week beginning 25.2.19

Wollaton class absolutely loved our visit to the Mansfield Fire Museum. We explored equipment old and new and had the opportunity to ask lots of questions about fire engines and firefighters.

Week beginning 11.2.19

This week, we looked at riddles and how they are structured. By the end of the week, we wrote some of our own!

Can you match the answers to the riddles?

Week beginning 28.1.19

Everyone enjoyed a visit from Zoolab this week, which gave us a chance to encounter some unusual animals and find out a little bit more about them.

Week beginning 21.1.19

We've had a visit from the police today. They told us about their job, showed us their equipment and even let us have a look around one of their cars. It was very interesting to be thinking about all the different jobs that are being carried out within the police force and students made the most of their opportunity to ask questions.

Week beginning 23.9.18

This week we made flapjack for the MacMillan Coffee Morning, the students enjoyed checking they had all the ingredients, weighing out and mixing the ingredients, taking turns and sharing the experience.

Once the flapjack was finished most of the students wanted to buy it at the cake sale!

Week beginning 12.9.18

We've had a good first two weeks, we're all settling into our new routines nicely.

In Maths the students have been working on comparing the size of two objects, either longer, shorter, taller smaller etc. Also we have been playing Maths games working on taking turns and listening to rules.
