Health and Mental Wellbeing Project

Staff from each of our schools have completed the Health and Mental Wellbeing Project through Yoga and Meditation. They completed the training (trained by a qualified Yoga and Meditation Instructor) and delivered a supported 6 week training block to a group of selected students. They attended the training after school (8 weeks) and then delivered the Yoga sessions in their own time during Lunchtime or after school.

We are looking forward to being able to offer this as a club once we return to school. This will help students to secure clear relaxation and stress relief strategies through physical activity. Students can use these strategies to enhance wellbeing.

Home Learning Art Work

Coleridge, Parkside and Trumpington students have been creating some fantastic Artwork during this period of home learning. We are really impressed with their hard work!

Year 8 students are studying carnival in Create. Teacher of Art at Parkside, Ms Matine, received these amazing pictures of one of her student’s work.

Mr Dempsey, Teacher of Art at Trumpington, has been receiving some great work from Year 8 students who are studying Carnival this term. They have been focusing on the Day of the Dead festival.

Mrs Millen, teacher of Art at Coleridge, ran an Easter challenge to design an egg inspired by an artist. Here are some of the winners from Year 7,8 and 9 students. Well done to everyone who entered.

Mr Dempsey, Teacher of Art at Trumpington, has been receiving some great observation drawings and artist research from Year 9 students.

Rainbow Decorations

Coleridge suggested activity for 20th April: Take a moment to find something beautiful in the world and capture it. I chose this rainbow created by Lidija for the front of our school. “The earth, without art, is just eh”‬

World Book Day 2020

We are celebrating World Book Day 2020 this year by publicising the books staff are reading. It’s a great talking point around the school.

Our students are so talented. Well done Year 7 for your entries into the #WorldBookDay British Bake Off! Some real showstopper pieces. We will be selling them at lunch – although some look too good to eat! It will be difficult to choose a winner.
