Last week our Year 7 students were treated to the BAE Roadshow where they learnt all about energy and the importance it plays in everyday life. The workshop is delivered by staff from BAE, Royal Airforce and the Royal Navy and is always a highlight on our calendar as a a really interactive and engaging session. A particular highlight was seeing just how fast Mr Fisher could go on the energy-generating bike!

On the last week of term we had our Year 8 Music, Drama and Dance taster sessions for our Pathways courses. Year 8 did really well, it was lovely to see so many students get involved. If anyone has any further questions about our courses then please come and see us

Last term saw yet more students receiving the Headteacher's Commendation for going above and beyond not only in terms of academic performance but also by being an outstanding member of the KSA community
Well done everyone!

Last half-term our Performing Art students in Years 9, 10 and P16 had the fantastic opportunity to watch a production of Jekyll and Hyde by The National Theatre Company. The dance studio was transformed into an amazing set, the lights, sound, costumes and props really brought the performance alive.
The Q&A with the professional actors at the end was so inspirational for our performing art students. The actors said our students were an amazing audience, the best school they have visited. They are currently on tour in Peterborough and then heading to Wakefield.
A huge thank you to everyone involved!
