A Fantastic Big Write at Our Primary School

A Fantastic Big Write at Our Primary School

Our primary school had an exciting Big Write! The students were given a scenario about life inside a tree and shared different ideas before writing their stories. Everyone was excited to put their thoughts on paper, using descriptive writing to bring their ideas to life.

At the end of the session, they exchanged their work and read what a friend had written. It was fun to see how everyone had different but amazing ideas!

Year 9 Students Visit Cobbe Barracks – A Meaningful Experience of Giving Back

As part of their studies on World War I and II, Year 9 students this week visited Cobbe Barracks, where they had the opportunity to donate various essential items to wounded soldiers. This visit was a significant part of their learning journey, offering them a deeper understanding of the wars and their aftermath.

The students arrived at the barracks with many questions in mind, eager to gain first-hand information and insights that would enrich their classroom studies. Meeting the soldiers allowed them to connect the history they are learning with real-life experiences, making the lesson more impactful and meaningful.

We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to all the students who contributed to this initiative. Your support has truly made a difference, and you should be proud of the positive impact you’ve made on the lives of others.
