Our year 7s thoroughly enjoyed the 'Animal Experience'. They learned about all sorts of Wild animals, as well as interesting facts about their habitats. They also had the opportunity to hold these incredible animals, which they loved!

Here are some more photos of our fantastic 'Animal Experience', which has been a massive success amongst our students. 'Angel the Owl' loved our Sports Hall so much, she wouldn't come down for about an hour! Can you spot her in one of our photos?🦉

It's always lovely to see our students embrace Character Development Day (Drop Down Day), and involve themselves in the activities that take place throughout the day.

We wanted to share some extra highlights, featuring The Animal Man, from our first Drop Down Day last Thursday. It was certainly a jam-packed day for us with a multitude of exciting activities.
The Animal Man is always a massive hit! Students saw creatures in real life for the first time, held things they were scared of and made incredible memories.
