Never let the joy be defeated! The #MonktonValley was so beautiful today that it felt worth revisiting the #JerusalemaChallenge in the snow... The whole community got involved with hot chocolate, squirty cream and mince pies to keep everyone cheery. Highly recommended #MonktonJoy
A super visit to @MonktonBath today. Great to meet with @MonktonHead to learn more about the values that drive the community; see them in action; and talk to students about how they embrace failure, question things and think differently. Good to chat @psbacc with @MonktonPrep too
24h until the final #PartnerChat Breakfast Briefing of 2022 and I’m on a train to Bath to meet guest expert @MonktonHead in person! https://t.co/b5bsEh0UXS
Lovely weather for a tour of @MonktonBath with 2 fabulous Y12 students. Interesting having a public cycle route through the middle of a school…Great to talk #partnerships with @MonktonHead & colleagues ahead of tomorrow’s Breakfast Briefing.
The Chicago band, which includes very talented students, has been supporting the actors with a kicking swing! Here's our music 'Chicago Short', featuring our MD, Mr PWL. @MonktonDrama@MonktonBath#MonktonExpressiveArts
At the back of the auditorium, the magic of sound is all controlled by one of our ace tech students. Have a quick look at how complicated the whole audio set-up is! We can't wait, our Saturday night Chicago is almost here! @MonktonDrama@MonktonBath#MonktonExpressiveArts
S1E29 of our #InspiringSchoolsPodcast with Chris Wheeler (@MonktonHead) from @MonktonBath has been listened to in Canada! 🇨🇦

Wonderful to have @boden_jon run a workshop and share his thoughts about getting it right and getting it wrong with our music scholars, topped off by a folk version of this @britneyspears classic; enjoy!
Our newly formed student-led Gospel Choir performed a soulful rendition of ‘Shackles’ by Mary Mary in Assembly thismorning- as well as sharing the history behind Gospel music’s origin to mark & celebrate the end of #BlackHistoryMonth#MonktonMusic 🎶🌟
Along the woodland path at our @MonktonSenior School you’ll find even more autumnal display making, observational drawing and animal hide construction…🌲🦔🦉

Amazing learning about birds of prey with Year 9 today as part of Wild Monkton’s #MonktonFieldDayM22; learning about the natural world is at the heart of conservation; conservation is at the heart of everything we do.
Yesterday Year 6 started their Wild Monkton programme with activities such as: firepit art, pond dipping, wild walking and baking. Thank you to our friends at @MonktonBath for being so welcoming! @PalladianTrust @MonktonHead
