A huge thank you to everyone who attended our Macmillan Coffee Morning on Friday, 27th September 2024, and to those who kindly donated cakes and treats, helping us to raise money for this worthy cause.
It was wonderful to see so many families and students involved and we are delighted to announce that we raised a fabulous £62.92!
So, thank you to all for making it such a success – we had a wonderful morning!
Whilst students and staff were away enjoying their summer holidays, the academy was still extremely busy getting ready for the new academic year.
Miss Smith and Mrs Jones met with Brian and Jeff from @mitie who are working with the @coopuk project on a redevelopment of our Outdoor School. We were so lucky to have been selected!
Some fabulous news!
Following further participation in the Woodland Trust "Green Tree School Award" we have received our Silver Award!
We are looking forward to getting more saplings, later in the year, to plant in our Outdoor Learning space and provide some year round colour, which will also, hopefully, attract wildlife.
The planting of the saplings will be linked to our outdoor learning lessons and activities in school and we’ll then set our sights on achieving Gold and then Platinum!
The certificate is being proudly displayed in our reception area!

Thank you to all family and friends who attended our recent Christmas Craft afternoon! It was great seeing not only the students getting stuck into the crafting but all the adults too!
On Wednesday 13th December, Mrs Jackson and her team prepared us all a wonderful Christmas lunch. It was absolutely delicious and thoroughly enjoyed by students and staff alike!
Mr Sludds recently organised for us to work with the Peterborough Literacy Trust, as part of an initiative to improve our school’s reading for pleasure.
Today, he met with staff from the Peterborough Literacy Trust, who have given us lots of help and ideas around supporting reading, both at home and in school. Watch this space for news about the implementation of these ideas, in the new year!
We were also delighted to handover a box full of the kind book donations, that parents and staff have given, following their plea for books for children this Christmas.
You may remember, the National Literacy Trust in Peterborough has promised to match up to 1,000 donations to its annual book gifting scheme, to give children across the city the gift of reading.
All books collected will be shared via local foodbanks, where families who use the foodbank service will be able to pick and wrap one to take home and give to their child for Christmas.
Thank you to everyone who donated a new book to go to this worthy cause.
Friday 17th November is a 'Spotacular' Children in Need Day!

The Academy will also raise money by having a mufti day for a £1 donation where we invite students and staff to wear 'Colourful' and/or 'Spotty' clothes!
A huge thank you for everyone who turned up for Fridays Macmillan Coffee morning and the kindly donated cakes & treats! We raised a total of £201.70!!
