Students participated in a range of workshops from external companies on genres such as the music and dance of China, African drumming and samba. There were also many classroom-based activities such as using the app Garageband to create music and the Year 7s enjoyed making their own rap music. Our very own Mr Miles and Mr Barbour also organised and led sessions to whole year groups, which students clearly found both fascinating and engaging. Mr Miles’ session, for example, was a very loud samba extravaganza! Students really enjoyed the day and were fully engaged in these enrichment activities which are designed to supplement the breadth and depth of our curriculum offer. The curriculum days later in the year will look to develop these areas, as well as a focus on supporting other areas of the Key Stage 3 curriculum.

Equalities Enrichment day All students in Years 7 to 11 enjoyed a range of activities and learning experiences outside of their normal timetabled lessons on Friday 15th October. This was the first of our Project Days this year and the focus was on Equalities. We had a variety of external agencies and companies who presented to the students on topics around Equalities and Diversity including Disability in Sport, Race and Racism, LGBTU presentations including a talk from Sophie Cook, who presented on trans-gender themes. At the Valley Campus some of our students also participated in a talk about the refugee status of people who enter the country at Gatwick airport. This talk was really interesting as it highlighted the situation and context of many of these refugees, including their welfare, human rights and many other issues. Our aim is for the annual Equalities Day to supplement the thorough and comprehensive education we offer around the Equalities Agenda in Learning for Life sessions. In future editions of Parklife lookout for information about our upcoming Project Days, where we will be focusing on key aspects of the curriculum, including Music Around the World and other Creative Arts themed days.
