PE

Students can look forward to a wide range of activities in the P.E department, which caters for all abilities. Each year the students who enjoy the gym and dance lessons have the opportunity to showcase their talents in the Gym and Dance Festival, which is held at the Academy and also welcomes primary students from local schools to take part.

Students can also get involved in the Academy’s football and cricket teams which have excelled in their achievements. At the end of each year, students get the chance to take part in and support the Academy’s Sports Day. This enjoyable event brings out fierce competition between the house teams, and is a great way for the students to socialise and interact with each other, while supporting and encouraging team spirit. There is a variety of after school activities available, and students and the wider community are also able to use the fully equipped gym.

 

My favourite aspect of school is being involved in the School Council – the chance to represent other students and get your voices heard is great. Away from lessons, I also

take part in football and cricket but in school time I really enjoy using the computers. When

I finish at school, I’ll go on to college to study further – I’m not sure which subjects yet though!
