Coronation Celebrations!

To celebrate the Coronation of King Charles III, students across the Trust took part in various activities.

There were a lot of parties and picnics for our students, teachers and parents.

Some students took part in “If I was King for a Day” and also took part in their own Coronation ceremony.  

Those who have a keen interest in art took part in the “Royally big portrait”- a project run by the BBC’s Children in Need which aims to digitally showcase portraits of King Charles III to celebrate his coronation.

Other students also created special Coronation designs on mugs and plates, when they went to ‘paint a pot’; whilst others designed their own crowns, designed crowns for the new King and wrote letters too!

A fantastic week of celebrations was had by everyone involved!

Rawmarsh Community School holds Curling Event

On Wednesday 17th May, four of Rawmarsh Community School feeder primary schools attended a transitional Curling event run by Mr Inglis and the RCS Sports Leaders.

 The event saw 28 Y6s, soon to be Y7s, come down and take part in five activities (four of which were curling based with the other being a tour of the school). The event aimed to help aid transition for the new RCS students, through allowing them to familiarise themselves with the school and its current students.

 All activities were run by the Sports Leaders with one of them saying “I’ve really enjoyed the teaching element of the day and teaching Curling to the children”. The Sports Leaders also helped gather feedback from the children regarding the event. Whilst at the same time handed out booklets which contained useful information for the new Y7s such as the school timetable, required equipment for September, a map of the school and some fun facts about their new teachers!

 Ross Inglis, School Games Organiser said: “The event was a big success, with the majority of the children, during the pupil voice activity at the end, saying they have changed their minds from feeling apprehensive and nervous, to excited and happy, about the prospect of moving to Rawmarsh Community School in September.

 A big thank you to Rawmarsh Community School for hosting and to Rawmarsh Ashwood, Monkwood, Rawmarsh Sandhill and Rawmarsh Thorogate for attending.”

WPT Students Take Part in Mega DofE Expedition

On Tuesday 9th May, 85 Y9 students from Wickersley School & Sports College, Clifton Community School and Thrybergh Academy took part in our first ever ‘Mega Expedition’ for their Duke of Edinburgh Award.

They walked almost 30k around Castleton and the Hope Valley over two days, taking in beautiful sights such as Cave Dale, Mam Tor, Lose Hill and Padley Gorge.

They also spent the night camping at Glenbrook Campsite and they were an asset to their teachers and the Trust throughout. 

We’re pleased to say that they all successfully passed their expedition!
