A special Thrive moment today 🦋
Our students have been learning all about the life cycle of caterpillars, watching five tiny caterpillars grow, form their chrysalis, and transform right before their eyes. Today, they released their Painted Lady butterflies into the wild – a real full-circle moment.
Each one even had a name (yes, like footballers 😄): Scienza, Manning, Bree, Tonda and Peretz.
David Attenborough would be so proud of our future biologists 🤩
Teamwork really makes the difference! In Year 8 Oracy students took on the “First 10” challenge, working together to create strong openings and hook their audience from the very first line.
A great reminder that when we work together, our ideas go further 👏

Hope you’ve had a restful long weekend and are feeling ready for the week ahead 💙
We started the day in English, exploring ;Noughts & Crosses; with Mrs Hein, using exam-style questions to analyse language, sentence types and the writer’s emotions.
Students even closed their eyes at moments to reflect honestly on their thoughts and reactions to the text - a really thoughtful way to engage more deeply!
