Sackville brings cheer to the dark 2020 autumn

Whilst our year 11s are coming to the end of their mock exams – and how hard they have worked – our science labs have been empty to allow our year 7s their first visit. Careful cleaning of the rooms before and after means we can get our year 7s to complete their Bunsen licence (and have a bit of scientific fun besides). These students have had ten weeks learning science, and indeed all of their subjects, in business, music and drama rooms, so the sight of a gas tap is excitement enough, let alone lighting a Bunsen and seeing Mr Langford’s pyrotechnics. Well done to all of our year 7s and thanks to our science staff.

In the meantime, in an attempt to bring some cheer to the end of 2020, our musicians have instigated the Sackville Wednesday Concert, every Wednesday lunchtime in a different part of the school. We were entertained by some fantastic year 12 musicians this week and we look forward to the spectacular talent coming next.
