Reflection at the end of the week....

Once again, the development block challenge was a great success. Pupils in year 7 have now completed two challenges with the third (led by the humanities cluster) coming next.

This challenge was led by the languages and English cluster and required all pupils to take a trip around the world. On the first morning pupils were briefed and issued with their passports before having to proceed through security! During the week, pupils completed a wide variety of tasks as they travelled the world including food tasting, salsa lessons, ordering food in a cafe, researching native animals and much more.

At the end of the journey, parents and carers were there to meet the pupils in the arrivals lounge. The excitement was obvious as the pupils shared their learning experiences with each other and their parents and carers before finally having their passports stamped to confirm completion of their challenge.

This was another mind-blowing learning experience for all concerned. We can't wait for the next challenge!
