Boarding week

Last week has been as busy as usual! With the multitude of visits and activities in the boarding houses, the students have been very busy. The weather has allowed us to spend as much time as possible outside and the students were happy to make good use of the combination of sun and snow. We have been shopping for warmer clothes and new boots to allow the students to circulate with the huge snow fall we had. We look forward to another busy week.

With the Christmas period soon upon us, the children and the boarding staff are in full preparation for the festive period. Amongst many traditions at the school, we will have the special day we collect and decorate our tree as a family, followed by a Christmas film and cookies.We will also be preparing the Christmas carol singers for their Saturday performance and not to mention the Christmas party. This evening, the students have already started to choose their secret santa names when they will all exchange gifts with another student, in secret.

Welcome Back :)

It was wonderful to see so many smiley faces entering Academia this morning. The children were excited to be back at school and they were motivated to start the second half of the term. We enjoyed hearing all about their adventures over the holidays.

We have got a busy week planned for the children; the Reception and Year 1 & 2 class will be visiting Labyrinthe Aventure and a local farm with their teachers on Thursday and Friday while the Year 3 - Year 9 children will be exploring Europa Park. Let's not forget our Halloween Party for the whole school on Saturday, look out for some spooky photos next week!

 

Let's catch up with our Year 1 & 2 class and see what they have been learning.

Lisa and Simon enjoyed recording sentences for their story to help them to write them. The children have been practising their beautiful handwriting using a range of different media and in maths they have learned how to sort 2D shapes using Venn diagrams through practical and interactive activities.

Meet our Student Council Class Representatives

Meet our Student Council Class Representatives - Maya, Anastasia, Ella, Ludovica, Marousia, Tony, Mathieu, Rio

Student council is a group of students elected by their peers. Our school council members will bring ideas, requests, and feedback to the meetings. Students who participate in student councils learn about the democratic process, leadership, problem solving and teamwork.

The student council is the voice of the student body.

 

Express Yourself

As part of Express Yourself week each class decorated their door based around the book they have been reading. The winning class was announced in assembly this morning - well done to Year 3 & 4!

Exploring the story of ‘The Three Little Pigs’

This week, as part of our special ‘Express Yourself’ celebrations, we have been focusing on reading. We decided that it is fun to read everywhere. Take a look where we took our favourite books!
The Reception children have been thinking about the initial sounds in words. We looked carefully for words beginning with different sounds and used our special Spotter Glasses to help us!

Exploring the story of ‘The Three Little Pigs’ has been lots of fun. We acted out the story and took on the roles of the pigs and the big bad wolf.

In the role play we worked on The Three Pigs’ Building Site and in The Architect’s Office. We were designing houses and then using the construction equipment to help us build our models.

The Reception children have been investigating the properties of different materials. We wondered which materials the big bad wolf would be able to blow the furthest. We used an air pump to help us gets lots of ‘huff and puff’! It was lots of fun and we found out that a house made out of leaves would blow much further away than a house built of stone!
