\nThe Duke of Edinburgh’s Award parents' meetings will take place on the following dates:
\nOn Friday 6 February, we hosted our annual AVA Careers Fair.
\nRecently a group of our Student Parliament and Duke of Edinburgh students visited Green Ridge Primary School to work alongside younger pupils on the importance of caring for the environment and taking pride in our local community.
\nWe are pleased to offer Salsa Club for students who’d like to learn some new moves in a fun, relaxed setting.
\nThe Mason Foundation is a national charity behind Propel Pathways — a new, free website designed to help neurodivergent young people and those with SEND build confidence, develop practical skills, and get ready for the world of work.
\nA group of Year 10 students visited the University of Reading on Wednesday 4 February — their first ever visit to a university campus. They said the day was both inspiring and really valuable.
\nA fire crew and their engine visited school today to talk to our Reception children. It was a real highlight — the children loved seeing the fire engine up close (and even climbing inside!), and we could hear squeals of delight all the way from the staff room!
\nThe AVA Parent Teacher Association has kindly purchased new equipment for our sensory gym, helping us further develop this valuable space for pupils who need time to regulate, reset and feel ready to return to learning.
\nOur Year 3 WOW Day launched their upcoming Stone Age topic — always a firm favourite with the children. The costumes were fantastic and certainly made the lunch hall an exciting place to be!
\nOur Year 10 and 11 History students demonstrated exemplary respect, curiosity and resilience as we navigated our way through an icy, snowy three-day tour of Berlin last week.
\nLast week, Mrs Crumpton and Miss Chony met with our Duke of Edinburgh participants and issued letters to parents and carers with details of the upcoming Bronze Award Information Meeting.
