Our 7A1 Textiles’ students have taken part in a live fashion drawing lesson with Miss Sinden. 

We studied the work of Grace Ciao a fashion illustrator who works with natural objects to create quirky designs. Miss Sinden was really impressed with the whole class’s participation and enthusiasm. 

Well done year 7

For the next 5 days we are going to post a “Taking care of YOU” top tip for our young people and families. We know this is a hard time for everyone and taking care of your mind as well as your body is so important at this time. These tips might not be anything new but sometimes it is helpful to have ideas broken down and shared again. Pass them on and help others too!

Taking Care of YOU – Day one
Talk to someone about your worries. It’s ok to feel helpless, scared or anxious at this time. It’s also ok to feel fine. Everyone reacts differently. Try talking to someone you trust about how you feel. Sharing our worries helps. If you don’t feel you can talk to someone you know, click the link below for a range of fantastic helplines.

There are a number of laws designed to protect people from discrimination. You can learn about The Equality Act 2010 from this video and poster. It is good that we have laws but remember what we need to do ourselves is understand what racism is and oppose it wherever we see it, no matter who we are.

7LA3 and 7LB5 Spanish have been writing about their snow folk in Spanish this week. Ms Brown is very impressed with their final outcomes.

Well done Year 7!

All of these wonderful words capture the true spirit of Christmas and the Southam values of Kindness, Confidence and Resilience.

Can you learn them off by heart (and put them into practice) over the Christmas period?

Year 7 footballers were a credit to themselves and the school during practice tonight.

After some strenuous warm up activities the boys applied themselves wholeheartedly to a blood and thunder game of two halves!

The match was played in great spirit, and all enjoyed a delightful 45 minutes under the floodlights on the astro turf.

Pleasure to take you and the words of thanks at the end made it all the more enjoyable.

Mr Samra
