Virtual Sports Day 2020

Jul 2020
Pre Prep children were encouraged to participate in a virtual 'at home' Sports Day this year with a range of suggested events in which to participate. Head of Sport, Mr Gareth McComb encouraged the children to practise the events during their allocated week and then perform them when it suited them best at home. The sports staff provided written and video instructions to help set up races and events and to start the 'ready, steady, go!' Families had the option to upload their photos and videos to the allocated Padlet to share the fun with their friends and teachers.

Senior House Virtual Art Exhibition 2020

Jul 2020
Speech Days at St John's at the end of every summer term also coincide with the school's annual Senior House Art Exhibition. This event gives the chance for artwork across the academic year from each child to be viewed and celebrated. Head of Art, Mrs Sam Downer, was determined not to let the pandemic stop 2020's exhibition and, as a result, it was celebrated electronically with over 500 pieces of work to be enjoyed.

F3 have made prosthetic hands in DT with moveable fingers & thumbs. They have linked the movement of human joints, muscles, ligaments & tendons in hands with their made hands.

RS - should we all be forced to make the sacrifice so that we can help everybody else, or should it still be someone’s decision about whether they make the sacrifice ? F2 think about whether we should all be required to sacrifice proper food & drink Huel to save the environment? https://t.co/CeQakuPNqX
