Tudor Grange Worcester

Merry Christmas from the blogging team and the rest of TGAW!

Hey everyone, It's almost end of term (ᵔᴥᵔ) and there's been a lot of stuff going on. 1- We have 2 new Bloggers, Ben and Cameron! 2- The Winter Fair. We raised over £3000! You can buy a  Rolex Datejust 16030  with that. It was busy and there was a range of stalls. 3- Cinderella Our newest production- Cinderella is doing pretty well so far, you can still buy some tickets. The last date is Tomorrow! 4- Romeo And Juliet The English Department's Play performed in the Palace Theater in Redditch. Organized by Mrs. Allaway 5- Geography/RE Trip The RE bit was really fun, we got to have a tour of the Worcester Cathedral, and pretended to be monks, I (Louis) was at the front of the line! The Geography bit was a bit boring but got us moving as we did a log of the city on the way back to school. 6- Hive Trip We have a full blog post on this  here! There's so much more we can talk about! Make sure to stay tuned on the blog have a great Christmas! We will see you somet

Hi guys so today we are going to be talking about SAS. Me (Aaliyah) does Photography it is really good and me (Ruby) does Animal care its very smelly but also really awesome. Here is some other SAS like Tudor Radio, Adventures, Media and Debate etc. Animal Care - The animals at animal care are 3 Rabbits, a guinea pig, a dog, a cat, 3 goats, 2 chickens, 2 donkeys and 4 ducks. We go on the mini bus to another place that has all these animals. During our SAS session, we clean the animals out. This means that we have to clean out any droppings and replace straw so the animals don't get infection and disease. Then we walk the dog and go to see some horses. Marvin, the rabbit, goes into the furthest corner so we can't reach him often! Falcon is a duck and she is amazing because she is really friendly. Photography - In photography, we go around the school and take photos of different things. We have a task sheet with challenges on (For example, take a photo from the second f

Come to the TGAW Winter Fayre! The TGAW Winter Fayre is back this year! Come along to support the school, and a Nepal charity!  Watch this promotional video: This year as a Tudor Grange Academy Trust initiative we are supporting Shamhav Nepal. This is a charity focused on rebuilding schools in the earthquake struck Nepal.

Have you been to the Hive yet? It's a great space to hangout, play games, use the computers and finally read books. Year 7 went on a trip to look at the huge library of books on offer at the hive. We looked at original letters from WW1 soldiers; it was quite strange as they all seemed calm but all around them there were bombs going off and shells landing. We also did speed dating, but with books. We looked at brand new books that aren't even on the shelves yet. There were some great books we found that wanted to make us read. Finally we picked up a book from the library and checked it out. Ruby is currently reading Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.

This week a new college competition was announced! The goal is to sing  'Merry Christmas Everyone' by Shakin' Stevens  the best!  You can practice on the video down below Who do you think will win? Marlowe is the current award holder, will the other colleges take its crown? Comment down below!

Hi!!! It's Ruby and Aaliyah reporting again this evening, and we're posting about our day off timetable to take part in an inter-college cup sports day! All of year 7 and 8 were involved and this is how it went. It was a great day; very  brutal but very fun. First we went to tutor and then got dressed and ready for the fun! The year groups played separately. Year 7 and 8 took part in the 4 hours of excitement. The year 8 girls did netball and bench ball. The year 7 girls played bench ball and the year 7and 8 boys played rugby. Each form got to play 6 times. The teams who did the best played in a final. Versalius were the winners of year 7 bench ball! We heard at the end that Versalius also won the other year 7 games! Other winners were Raleigh (Year 8 Netball) and Walsingham (Year 8 Rugby).   Unfortunately, Marlowe and Tyndale didn't place in the top 3 :( Whilst it was lots of fun, it was seriously competitive! We both have war wounds(!) from our efforts to win.

So today year 7 went on a Cathedral trip. All day we stayed at the Worcester Cathedral for about 3 hours including a 5 min break to rest our legs. I(Ruby)got very tired as well as my friend. Our history and geography teachers took us because it will help in our general knowledge. We looked at architecture and had a tour about the history.  There was a lot of time to stop and explore and admire the building. We stopped to hear a prayer, because every hour a prayer is said. Inside it was really big with some beautiful stained glass windows.  The day ended walking back to the school. It was nice to get some exercise and fresh air.      

Hi Everybody! Did you come to Open Evening? It was amazing. Me (Aaliyah) toured people around the school. It was very good showing people the school so they would get the experience of seeing what Tudor Grange Academy  is like. Also me (Ruby) helped out in english with Miss Lees and fellow students!  Aaliyah - To start off, I met the people I was to show around by Reception. I took them around the school very slowly, focusing on the key areas they wanted to go to. The main areas people were interested in were English, P.E, Drama, Music, Computer Rooms and the Cooking classrooms. My favourite part of the evening was the fact that lots of my friends were helping too and I got to walk around with my friends. I had to remember some facts such as the times of our split lunches and what's on the menu! Lots of people were really interested and asked lots of questions.  Ruby - My role on Open Evening was to help in English. We had to help the year 6 students make up Shakespe

Welcome back people! I know it's actually been a whole week since we started school again but this is the first day I was free to make this... So yesterday the Freshers Fayre took place in the English suite and to be honest, I saw a lot of talent roaming around in the halls.. Weird saying, I know. But I hope there will be a few more new recruits to the Tudor Blogosphere next week! So next week I will be posting some of my favourite products, TV programmes and stuff like that I enjoyed over the Summer holidays, and I think you'll really love them too. So keep in touch for that! The Tudor Grange Academy Blogosphere will be back same time net week for full blog posts and better content than ever before! SEE YOU THEN :)   

Hello!   This blog post is sadly the last one of the school year :(( I literally can't believe I've been running my blog for almost a year, remind me to do a big celebratory post for that!    But this post will just be me briefly telling you what’s going to happen on the blog in the next few months or so :) I was going to post weekly or every few days in the holidays, but unfortunately I didn't have a lot of time and I spent my spare time on the Summer project. But my goal for next years blog will be to post a lot more! I also have a lot more blog post ideas for next year: Interviewing MORE people about MORE things, lots of DIY's and hacks, and also just a lot more content in general with more college blog posts. I also want to say that the monuments the tutors built were AMAZING! Especially Mrs Allaway's tutor who made 'The Valley of the Fallen' and you could easily see that they spent a lot of time and put a lot of effort into it! So
