Assembly
Students in Year 7 had the opportunity to make their voices heard today in assembly. The School Council were talking about the ways in which they make a difference to the school and then they asked students to put any of their ideas on post-it notes to make our school even better. Student were strongly encouraged to become involved and to work together to make a difference.
Great Work
The task was to produce a pretend research paper as if each student worked in a lab! Mr Weale was incredibly impressed with the piece of work below.
Well done Lottie Ruddle in Year 9.
Charles Dickens' Museum
The students wrote...
It all started on a cold morning…my class and some teachers
came for a day trip to London. On Thursday 26th January year 7 students went to
London to visit the Charles Dickens' Museum
We had a wonderful time and this is how it started…
First we all had to arrive at Woking station by 9 am. We got
on the train at 9.40 heading to London Waterloo. From Waterloo we went over the bridge to see the London eye,
Big Ben and Houses of Parliament. We took some photos. It was very cold yet
beautiful!
After that we took the tube to Covent Garden where we heard
a man singing. Then we got the opportunity to visit the London Transport Museum
as Mr Clayton spoke to their staff and we were able to go on a trail collecting
stamps. It was a lot of fun and we all loved going on some of the old buses and
engines.
Finally was time to leave and go to the Charles Dickens' Museum
visit. In this one you couldn’t touch
anything because some objects were 180 years old! We had a tour around the
house and learnt about Charles Dickens' life and what he achieved. The Museum
had 6 floors, lots of rooms and stairs!
It was funny to see how they washed the clothes in those
days, using a bucket and a wooden dolly. At the end of the tour we had a workshop where we had to and
it was interesting to guess the names of certain household items, who would use
them and which room they belonged.

Frog Play
Following on from the success of the Year 7 Frog Play quiz on
their knowledge of the Winston competencies and the school itself Miss Blackman is
launching fortnightly quizzes, which are department specific. Over the last
fortnight Year 7s have been tested on the keywords and knowledge of Design
Technology and Home Technology ahead of their rotation after half term. There
was again a fantastic uptake and below are the winners of certificates awarded
in assembly today. On Monday a Geography Quiz was launched, year 7 have
another week to put their geography knowledge to the test – remembering they
can have as many attempts as they need to reach 100%!
Thank you Miss Blackman!
