Today, our students took part in an informative and hardhitting assembly on knife crime, delivered by Simon Brown from the Connor Brown Trust. The session shared Connor's story and highlighted the reallife impact that knife crime has on individuals, families and communities. Our students engaged maturely and thoughtfully throughout, gaining an important understanding of the choices and consequences that help keep themselves and others safe. We'd like to extend our sincere thanks to Simon for giving his time and for delivering such a powerful and meaningful message to our young people. #NorthGosforthAcademy #ConnorBrownTrust #KnifeCrimeAwareness #KeepingYoungPeopleSafe #CommunityEducation #GosforthGroup #creatingfutures
View PostEngineering & Gaming Fun! Our students had a fantastic morning at NUCASTLE (Newcastle United Foundation building), designing and building their own vehicles before adding the engineering components needed to race and battle on the track. The challenge? Stay on the track the longest - and our young engineers rose to the occasion! After lunch, the fun continued with an hour of gaming in the Newcastle Foundation Gaming Suite, where everyone enjoyed some wellearned downtime. A brilliant day full of creativity, problemsolving, and smiles all round! #gosforthgroup #northgosforthacademy #creatingfutures #STEMLearning #FutureEngineers #NewcastleFoundation #HandsOnLearning #SchoolExperience
View PostInspiring Year 10 Experience at the Theatre Royal! On Friday, 30th January, our Year 10 students had the fantastic opportunity to attend the world premiere of 'Weird' at Newcastle Theatre Royal, a bold new musical that reimagines Macbeth through the eyes of the iconic Weird Sisters. As Year 10 students will be assessed on Macbeth during their final English Literature GCSE exam, this live performance offered an exciting and memorable way to deepen their understanding of key themes, characters, and plot developments. Seeing the story brought to life on stage really helped consolidate their learning. Our students were brilliant ambassadors for the school, fully engaged throughout the performance and inspired by this creative interpretation of a classic text. Their enthusiasm and thoughtful reflections afterwards made us incredibly proud. A huge well done to Year 10, a truly inspiring example of learning beyond the classroom! #NorthGosforthAcademy #GosforthGroup #CreatingFutures #InspiringStudents #LearningBeyondTheClassroom #EngagedLearners #CreativeEducation #ProudOfOurStudents
