Students from Year 7 and 8 had the honour of taking part in the city's celebration of the Blitz 85th anniversary along with hundreds of other volunteers constructing the 'Great Blitz Build' art installation. 

Coventry City Council ran week long workshops which involved creating a cardboard structure of Coventry old cathedral which was bombed during the Blitz. 

During the Tuesday session, twelve students were given instructions by Olivier Grossetête the artist who showed them how to tape together boxes that would form the roof section of the structure. 

On Saturday and Sunday the Cathedral came to life in Broadgate where members of the public could help to bring the build to life, before being pulled down to depict the cathedral bombing. Volunteers working along side our students commented on their fantastic conduct and manners throughout the session. 

Well done to Harriet, Elizabeth, Kadir, Bobby, Sienna, Anoop, Zainab, Karshin, Ava, Soraya, Gracie and Harrison. 
Thank you to Mrs Downs, Year 8 Senior Supervisory Assistant, for supporting the trip. 

Year 9 students were given the opportunity to take part in the following STEM activity. 

Students were given a realistic scenario where they were lost at sea with broken communications. They would have to make contact with another vessel or land by building a tower with two satellites attached.

These activities are designed for small groups to work on strategy, communication and teamwork.
The equipment used is simple in structure (think very large Meccano) but designed to encourage the use of students’ imagination and STEM skills. 

Group sessions like this will develop student’s ability to work together as a group, adapt, improvise and communicate to ensure their design is as effective as possible.

Year 13 last week hosted their annual Science Research Conference, showcasing an impressive range of work across Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Psychology, and Philosophy & Ethics. 

Working in study groups over the summer, they investigated dissertation style questions that went beyond the curriculum, often exploring themes of future innovation. 

Each group produced a scientific poster and presented their findings, articulating complex ideas with clarity and confidence.

The conference was an inspiring celebration of research, collaboration, and academic excellence, highlighting the curiosity and creativity of our students. A huge well done to all involved for their hard work, dedication, and the professional way they rose to this challenge.

Students performed on stage at The Albany Theatre in the whole school production of 'Legally Blonde' 

Performing allows students to perform in front of an audience and instill a sense of belonging. It also contributes to a student’s confidence and self-belief, and potentially creates a more well-rounded individual.

Each student involved has shown commitment, enthusiasm, determination and PRIDE whilst rehearsing for LEGALLY BLONDE.

A HUGE well done for all involved!
