🎭 Drama Club Has Taken Centre Stage! 🎭 What an amazing start we've had to our new Drama Club! 🌟 Over the past few weeks, students have been exploring how to tell stories without saying a single word, using only their body language, facial expressions and movement. From creating exciting characters to acting out imaginative scenes, our budding performers have shown fantastic creativity, confidence and teamwork. It has been brilliant to see everyone stepping out of their comfort zones and bringing stories to life through the power of physical theatre! 👏 We can't wait to see where their drama journey takes them next. Watch this space for more fantastic performances! 🎬🎭 #DramaClub #CreativeConfidence #RisingStars #northgosforthacademy #creatingfutures #GosforthGroup
View PostYear 11 Visit to the National Apprenticeship Show 🌟 Last week, our Year 11 students recently visited the National Apprenticeship Show at the Vertu Motors Arena, where they had the opportunity to explore a wide range of apprenticeship and career pathways. Throughout the day, students met employers, training providers and industry representatives, gaining valuable insight into apprenticeship programmes across a variety of sectors. They discovered more about the skills and qualifications employers are looking for and the different routes available to them after leaving school. There were plenty of opportunities to get involved too! A particular highlight was the Army stand, where students put their skills to the test through a series of challenges and games, explored training equipment and tried on tactical gear while learning more about careers and training within the Armed Forces. It was a fantastic opportunity for students to ask questions, make connections and learn more about how apprenticeships can provide a route into further training, qualifications and future careers. A brilliant day of exploring possibilities and thinking about the future! 👏 #NorthGosforthAcademy #NationalApprenticeshipShow #Apprenticeships #Careers #Year11 #FutureReady #Creatingfutures #GosforthGroup

View PostToday, students took part in an important assembly delivered by Northumbria Police, focusing on the impact of hate crime and the importance of respect, inclusion and understanding within our communities. The session helped students understand what hate crime is, how it can affect individuals and communities, and why it is vital to challenge discrimination, prejudice and harmful language. Students were encouraged to reflect on the power of their words and actions, both in school and online, and were reminded how to report concerns and seek support if needed. A big thank you to Northumbria Police for taking the time to speak with our students and for helping to promote our shared values of kindness, respect and equality. #NorthGosforthAcademy #GosforthGroup #CreatingFutures #NorthumbriaPolice #HateCrimeAwareness #RespectAndInclusion #ChooseKindness #EqualityForAll #CommunityValues #SafeSchools
