Intercollege Cup Sports Day!

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.      

Open evening!!!!!

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
