Crown Flyer 31st January 2020

On Tuesday 14th January, members of the English Department along with 44 Year 10/11 students visited The Old Vic Theatre in Waterloo to see a production of A Christmas Carol. It was an excellent opportunity for both year groups to see the book come to life, aiding the Year 11s in revision for their GCSEs and the Year 10s who have just finished studying the book with their teachers. The show was approximately 2hrs long, with a 20min interval. Students were enthralled and engaged from start to finish and fully immersed themselves in the festivities.

Apart from enriching students’ cultural capital, the trip also served as an opportunity for all students to be able to use the production as a form of revision and reminder of the key quotes and themes from the Novella. On the journey home, many students were engaged in healthy discussions about some of the themes that permeated the production, with others identifying key similarities and differences between the book version and the play.

Trust Champions!Last week the Academy P.E. Department took Year 7 students to the “Trust 5 Aside” football tournament. The day started badly with a broken down minibus, this didn’t dampen the teams spirits and soon alternative transport was sourced and the players arrived at Leigh Academy. I am delighted to say that the Year 7 Girls brought home the cup as Champions!
