It’s an Academy priority this year to build on the government’s commitment to help inspire the next generation of British athletes by providing high-quality PE and school sport for all our pupils and create the foundations for active healthy lifestyles.
Year 6 enjoyed an exceptional event organised by FOSA, well attended by pupils and supported by our Academy staff. Everyone have a fantastic time and it was a superb way to kick off our celebratory period in the lead up to their transition to high school.
During the Entrepreneur week, so much 'real life' learning takes place. The children form teams and have to come up with an idea and business name. They then have to research pricing and possible profit margins. Next they have to create a very detailed shopping list of everything they are going to need to buy, ensuring their maths is accurate so as not to go over the £15 budget FOSA kindly lent each group, them to get their business up and running.
In Art, Year 3 have been studying Modern Architecture, concentrating on the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao.
