Loving Learning!

It was great to walk around the school last Friday morning and speak to students attending in person, face to face lessons and also say a quick hello to students connecting in remotely from home.

I was impressed with the online attendance and thanked students for their hard work in these challenging times. It was good to speak to Emily and Cameron about their outstanding work in Mrs Amao and Mrs Bowyer’s technology classes.

Emily’s group were researching packing for various products to prepare them for the practical work where they will create their own uniquely designed packaging.

Cameron was using some new 3D design software to create a marble run which will be physically made in lessons next week. The challenge is for the marble to move, but as slowly as possible!

It was impressive to see the high engagement and excellent work being completed.
