Kicking off with an exciting Induction Day, our Y7s met their mentors and started building friendships that will last a lifetime. They enjoyed a fun-filled bonding trip, where teamwork was key and new connections were made. Students got to know their form tutors and had a special session with our school's psychologist. In this session, they explored how our differences and uniqueness are strengths to celebrate, learning how to co-exist peacefully while embracing what makes each of us special.
Our Year 12 Induction Day offered a dynamic blend of important guidance and engaging activities to ease students into the new school year. Alongside learning about key expectations, students participated in interactive sessions and group activities aimed at fostering teamwork and a strong sense of community. The day struck a perfect balance between being informative and enjoyable.
The MFL department annual KS3 trip to Europe recently took place with great success. Forty-one Year 7,8 and 9 students and 4 teachers stayed in the town of Aachen on the border of Germany with Holland and Belgium. After visiting the Dutch city of Maastricht, we travelled to the Three Counties Corner and experienced walking for more than an hour through the biggest Labyrinth of Europe in search of the fourth lost country.
We enjoyed the Euro 2024 street celebrations in Düsseldorf, admired the famous Cologne Cathedral, saw the river Rhine from above from the big cologne wheel, and learnt how chocolate is made with a special tour in the Lindt chocolate museum. Our trip could not have been complete without a visit to a theme park and the Phantasia Land theme park by the city of Brühl was a unique experience for everyone. The MFL department wishes everyone a happy summer and we are looking forward to our next year's trip to Barcelona, Spain!
