If you have any concerns, please liaise with your child’s crew leader in the first instance.

The last of the taster days will take place on Tuesday the 16th students will be leaving school at 9am and should arrive back between 3:15 and 3:30pm depending on traffic. All students will be provided with a lunch at the college and will take part in three taster sessions and an enrichment session. The students have chosen the sessions that they would like to attend. XP Is proud to offer students a range of opportunities to help them make informed decisions about their next steps as they prepare to move into year 11.

Huge well done to the year 7 rounders team for their first rounders tournament at XP Doncaster. Unfortunately we lost our 1st game however we reflected and learnt from our mistakes and won our 2nd game. It has been a fantastic year for rounders, well done it all the players involved.

The Netball squad and cheerleading team are taking part in a sponsored 5k run on Monday 15th July. We are raising money to go towards netball dresses and cheerleading uniforms ready for next year. The students would love your support and contributions towards their efforts. If you interested in sponsoring the teams please either speak to the student taking part or email Miss Bowser – [email protected] for further details.

Good Luck to all the students taking part. From Team PE.

Last week Year 7 went on fieldwork to Endcliffe Park in Sheffield to test the hypothesis that ‘the width and depth of the river will increase with distance from the source’. As well as ‘the velocity of the river will increase with distance from the source’.

Students worked as geographers and had a great day!
