A Warm Welcome to Central Academy

💪🏼 𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓒𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓻𝓪𝓵 𝓗𝓸𝓾𝓼𝓮 𝓒𝓱𝓪𝓵𝓵𝓮𝓷𝓰𝓮 💪🏼 🥚 The Egg Drop Challenge 🥚 A huge well done to Aidan who won this week’s house challenge! Aidan took home the win for house Hadrian where our student competitors had four minutes to design a device to cushion an egg dropped from various heights. A huge shout out to Lily and Jesse who also participated in this weeks challenge, with all three students successfully passing the first round! Unfortunately for Jesse and Lily, only Aidan’s device passed the second test, a 3 metre drop from the first floor balcony! This leaves the standings table at... Luguvalium- 5 wins/ 150 house points Valentia- 6 wins/ 180 house points Hadrian- 10 wins/ 300 house points 💪🏼 Don’t miss out on your chance to represent your house every Monday break time in the Atrium well. 💪🏼 #WeeklyChallenge #Ambition #Resilience #Respect

👮‍♂️👷𝕐𝕖𝕒𝕣 𝟙𝟘 & 𝟙𝟚 𝕎𝕠𝕣𝕜 𝔼𝕩𝕡𝕖𝕣𝕚𝕖𝕟𝕔𝕖 👨‍🔧👩‍⚕️ Before Easter our students in years 10 & 12, were out of school enjoying work experience. With over 200 students out across the two-year groups, it was a great week for them. Placements ranged from Hair & Beauty salons, Nurseries, Dog Kennels, Veterinary practices, GP Surgery’s, Dentists, Engineering & Construction firms, Solicitors, Restaurants and Architects to Search & Rescue, Accountants and Magistrates court. We had some great feedback from the employers with some students being offered jobs or apprenticeships and also some being rewarded for their hard work, by the employers. Our students represented the academy impeccably and their manners, dedication, determination and respect were duly noted. Miss Whyte would like to thank all the students for their hard work over the week, and of-course the employers that gave our students these opportunities, without their support these experiences could not be offered. Our next work experience event is taking place on May 22nd when our Year 7 students will be taking part in our ‘Take Your Child to Work Day’. #MyFutureMe #Character #Careers #Ambition #Respect #Resilience
