Last week a group of our students enjoyed the "Biggest Girls Football Day" at Dartford FC, celebrating women's football and International Women's Day. It was a great day aimed at inspiring young girls to get involved in sport, break down barriers and promote inclusivity. Well done to our girls who won 3 out of the 4 games they played! ⚽️🏆

Our literacy lead, Mr Foster, in full musketeer mode as he delivered the World Book Day assembly to our Year 7 cohort last week. It was brilliant to see so many students engaged in the celebration of the written word, from our tutor-time front cover quiz to the treasure hunt at break and lunch to the literary passport activity in the first 10 minutes of each lesson. We can't wait until next year! 📚
