Probably the most important tweet I’ll post across various platforms for a a long while. We need to champion this, listen and let children talk. I’ve experienced the impact of mental health & youth suicide with a family friend this year and the devastation it brought #papyrus

Many of us think we can’t achieve a goal, we can if it’s in smaller steps. Keep this in mind when we say we can’t do something. We can, we might need a little help along the way, we might hit a hurdle but we can overcome it.

What we are learning today: Year 10 Biology students have been undertaking a core practical, viewing onion cells under the microscope.

This week in Minecraft Lab we built rollercoasters focusing on forces and motion and Newtons Laws. Some very creative displays by our students in their worlds 🎢🎢🎢

Marked my Y8 assessments on fluids and they were fab- this is why. Amazing revision resources and effort into constant recall and application. Look forward to going through feedback tomorrow - we’ll done 👏👏👏
