Our amazing ADC held a bake sale to raise awareness and funds for International Men’s Day.

Students spent the day learning why this day matters and explored charities making a difference:

✔ Mates in Mind – Supporting mental health in male-dominated industries
✔ Orchid – Fighting male cancer
✔ Andy’s Man Club – Encouraging men to talk about feelings
✔ Mankind – Helping male victims of domestic abuse

Thanks to your votes, all proceeds from the bake sale will go to Orchid: Fighting Male Cancer. 💙

Let’s keep the conversation going and continue supporting men’s health and wellbeing.

🎄 Festive spirit at Sir John Talbot’s School!

Our Year 7 Crew representatives took on a very special job during Wednesday's Crew time – decorating the reception Christmas tree. But they didn’t stop there!

They added festive touches to our reverse advent calendar racking and the reception desk, showing amazing creativity and teamwork.

We’re incredibly proud of how they represented our Trust value “Caring about my environment” and our school values. Their decorations are beautiful, but just as importantly, they were kind, respectful, and supportive of one another throughout the task.

🏛 Exploring History at Vindolanda!

Our children had a fantastic time during their visit to Vindolanda, diving into Roman history in a hands-on way. Each child chose their favourite item from the museum, sketched it, and explained why it stood out to them.

What impressed us most was the variety, there was very little overlap in the items chosen, showing just how engaged and curious our children were throughout the task. Their creativity and enthusiasm really shone through!

42 of our Year 9 students embarked on an incredible enrichment trip to France. A highlight was meeting their French pen pals at Collège Jeanne d’Arc in Bernay after weeks of letter writing - a wonderful cultural exchange that brought language learning to life.

The group also explored some of Normandy’s most charming and educational sites, including:

✔ Graindorge cheese factory
✔ The picturesque port town of Honfleur
✔ The stunning Basilica of Saint Thérèse in Lisieux
✔ Cerza Zoo
