Year 8 at the Dickens Museum
Our Year 8 pupils stepped back in time with a visit to the Dickens Museum, discovering more about the life, times and inspiration of one of Britain’s most celebrated writers.
A fantastic opportunity to bring their learning beyond the classroom and explore the world of Charles Dickens first-hand.

Bonjour, Hola, Hallo… Hello!
Today we celebrate European Day of Languages!
What better way to celebrate than hearing some of the wonderful languages spoken across our school community? From a simple “hello” in different languages to our fabulous Year 1 children singing Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes in French.
We love celebrating the joy of languages and the wonderful cultures they open up to us. Learning a new language can start with just one little word… Bonjour!

An Unforgettable Blood Brothers Experience for Our GCSE Drama Students.
What an incredible day for our GCSE Drama students! We were privileged to welcome professional actors from StagED who delivered a full-day masterclass on Blood Brothers. Students gained valuable insight into characterisation, performance skills and rehearsal techniques from actors who have collectively performed in the West End production for over 20 years!
The excitement continued into the evening with a trip to Cambridge Arts Theatre to watch Blood Brothers live on stage. Having explored the play in depth during the workshop, students were able to fully appreciate the powerful performances, staging, and storytelling of this iconic musical.
It was an inspiring and memorable experience, giving our students a unique opportunity to learn from industry professionals and see their GCSE set text brought to life. A truly amazing day that will stay with them for years to come!

Students first visited Malton to investigate the town’s CBD through land use surveys, pedestrian counts and environmental quality surveys.
The following day, they carried out river fieldwork along the River Derwent, collecting data on river depth, width and sediment size to just to name a few techniques used..
A brilliant opportunity to put GCSE Geography skills into practice — with plenty of teamwork and fun along the way!
