On Monday 7th October, Year 9 enjoyed a visit to Cannock Chase. They had a rather muddy walk to the stepping stones area of the brook, crossed the stepping stones and had a picnic lunch.

World Mental Health Day was held on the 10th October 2019. 

All children and staff in the Prep and Senior departments took part in the #HelloYellow for Young Minds. Everybody looked very bright because they were wearing a yellow accessory in addition to their school uniform, which included hair bobbles, ribbons, socks, ties and hats.

 On 23rd September, Primary 5 & 6 embarked on their 3-day residential adventure trip with The Bushcraft Company, to Cholmondeley Castle in Cheshire. The grounds of this 19th-century castle were the perfect backdrop for a fun-packed residential trip where the children were accompanied by Mrs Talbot, Mrs Shelton & Mrs Wheatley.

Here are some snippets from the children:

What a scary bunch of Minotaurs we have!  Primary 4 had lots of fun making their minotaur masks, after listening to the Greek myth of Theseus and the Minotaur.

Grandparents afternoon was held on Friday 27th September in the Priory Hall.

The hall was buzzing with many grandparents and other family members of the children who attend our school.

Signal 1 Creation Day - Written by Year 8

Overall it was a very fun day and we all enjoyed it a lot. We got to learn all about the radio, what happens behind the scenes and so much more. We started off by introducing ourselves and finding out from Max Mallen (the late night show presenter) what it’s like to be in a studio. Then, we came up with our own radio show which led up to the finale of us creating our very own radio advert to advertise our school.

Once again we are celebrating an amazing set of GCSE results with100% of our students achieving 5 or more grades 4-9.

Our students have exceeded the projected results they were anticipated, which demonstrates how our small class sizes and personal approach to teaching and learning are key factors in the results they achieved.

A special mention must be made of Francesca, Georgia and Ava who all achieved 5 or more grades 7-9.

Some of our senior tennis team girls and boys enjoyed a fantastic day at a blazing hot Wimbledon last Friday.

As we arrived the excitement levels rose as Roger Federer and Dan Evans were seen knocking up together on the practice court beside the minibus park.
