Cracking Cholera Newcastle University visit

Thirty of our Year 8 pupils visited Newcastle University’s biomedical labs today for a science and history themed visit. We studied the symptoms of cholera and looked at primary sources detailing an outbreak in Gateshead in 1831. After that, we used microscopes to identify infected victims and designed our own cures based on medicines available to the Victorian people.

A huge thank you to Dr Lindsey, Sarah and the team at the uni for an excellent day.

Thank you! France 2026

Just like that, another France trip comes to an end. It was a pleasure to take such a brilliant group to Normandy and Paris; we hope the children enjoyed it just as much as the staff. Well done to you all for being wonderful and we hope you get some well deserved rest. What a bonus being back three hours early, just in time for the England match!
