During term 2 S1 students have worked on fruit sculptures. First they did lots of drawings of fruit and then they designed a sculpture based on their observation drawings. They added their own ideas and colours and came up with some very original designs. The work is now on display in the school corridor. !

P6 have been learning about life in 1066 in Britain and all about the battle of Hastings and P6D decided to make their version of the very famous Bayeaux tapestry which shows the Battle. They have enjoyed learning all about what happened in the battle and have enjoyed the project. Well done to all in P6D. !


Lessons for this year group finish on June 23rd. During this term, AS examinations will be take place between May 12th and June 12th. The grades obtained in these examinations together with the internal marks of the Spanish Section determine each pupil’s School Report at Graduation. . From now till June 23rd, classes will carry on as normal as no organised study leave period is necessary for this year group. All pupils should attend classes till the 23rd and must bring a justification from home for any absence from School during this time. Periods of absence will obviously affect the final grades adversely as the internal marks will depend on work completed up to June 23rd. As far as the English AS subjects are concerned, classes will consist of revision lessons and once pupils have taken the examination, the internal mark for each subject will include work until June 23rd. AS far as Spanish subjects are concerned ( Lengua, filosofía and Latín) classes will carry on as normal.
