Health and Social Care

In Health and Social Care, our Year 11 students have been learning about the importance of supporting the social and emotional needs of young children. Alongside completing their very own BTEC activities, the class have been working hard to produce a range of Worry Monster Boxes which have been delivered to some of our Year 7 and 8 classes this week.

The Year 11 students explained that when the younger students are feeling worried or concerned, they can write down or draw their worries on a piece of paper and then feed it to the monster.  Later, they can sit down with their teachers and talk about this worry and see how their feelings have changed. All the students and staff were so impressed with the quality of the designs and these little worry eating monsters look fabulous in their new homes!

Seussical the Musical

Our school show this year is Seussical (Kids). This is a fantastic, colourful romp through many of the Dr Seuss stories. The characters include The Cat in the Hat, Horton, Mayzie le Bird and The Wickershams.

Students in KS3 have started learning the songs this week and will all have the opportunity to participate.

We have also been running auditions and workshops for the principal roles at lunchtimes.

The performances will be on Wednesday 25 and Thursday 26 June at 6.00pm.

Please do put these dates in your diaries, there will be lots more Seussical news in the coming weeks.
