On Friday 23rd January Year 10 were involved in their 'Welcome to the real world' careers day. The day was focussed around students looking at next steps as well as skills that will help them in later life. In the morning students were given impartial advice from visitors about College, Apprenticeships, Interviewing and Deep fakes and then in the afternoon they took part in a mock interview run by approximately 20 external visitors (parents and business links). The day was a great success, and the students found it both fun and educational. The mock interviews were particularly successful, and the interviewers were extremely impressed by the students' preparation, confidence, and performance. Thank you to all who attended and helped on the day. #StudentCareers #LearningForLife #EducationToEmployment #CareersEvent #InterviewSkillsRead More »Instagram

The art department and Year 7 are currently doing a community project with the Abbey Flyer - designing posters for the 7 stations that go between St Albans and Watford. We have chosen to look at the environment of this area and the bird wildlife that inhabit it. We are also exploring materials and techniques working in class and with Art club participants. We are hoping these posters will be in place in the Spring. All of the birds represented are British Birds and can be found in gardens, woodlands and water lands within this area. Our students have been working hard on this project and creating some beautiful artwork. Displaying their work at our local stations would be a fantastic opportunity to celebrate their creativity and give them a real sense of pride. We can't wait to see them up! #CommunityConnections #SchoolCommunity #CommunityPride #StudentsInAction #LearningThroughArt#STAlbansmumsRead More »Instagram
