Students finish at 12:20pm tomorrow like today it is going to be extremely hot. Students do not need to wear their blazers and ties. Please bring a water bottle to refill and stay inside the building as we have air-conditioning throughout and the building/classrooms are very cool
Mrs Craven and Mr Heatley delivering the icepops to students in lessons!
Good Morning, Please remember that today is going to be very hot. Students do not need to wear their blazers and ties, they need to bring water or a water bottle to refill, wear sun cream and stay inside the building when possible as we have air-conditioning throughout.
Absolutely delighted to have them visit, and so glad they enjoyed the murder mystery!!
Some of our Yr 5 children have had a fantastic opportunity this morning visiting @Copley_Academy and taking part in their #FutureGreatStars event. Lots of science, maths and English involved. Great #teamwork and #reasoning involved @Inspire_Ashton @Mr_Connaghan 🤩🌟🙌🏻
As you may be aware we are expecting very high temperatures on Mon and Tue. We will not be expecting our students to wear a blazer or tie. Although the academy building has air conditioning throughout we understand that it may be very hot outside so this will hopefully help.
Construction and building design. But don’t eat the marshmallows, it will cost your team points!!
