The ship set sail from Poole, Dorset and sailed via the Isle of Wight, Boulogne in France and then down the River Thames to Canary Wharf.

It was a fantastic opportunity for the pupils as during their time on board they were setting the sails, helping maintain the vessel, taking it in turns to keep watch, recording the sea and air temperatures and even had the chance to climb the masts.

As pupils sailed down the River Thames, they were met with lots of media coverage and there was even a live stream of them passing under London Bridge.

Pupils spent two days learning about the history of the Holocaust as well as Jewish life before, during and after the Holocaust.

and the DT department in the Secondary Phase.

The children have looked at different types of wood, and have learnt how to use a range of tools such as a saw, drill and file. All children worked very safely, and demonstrated great levels of skill whilst manufacturing their products.

They spoke to the visitors about coaching, the value of having Restorative Practice representatives in school and how pupils are involved in school council and as House Captains.

One visitor said “The day was insightful. It was excellent to see the consistent message from both pupils and staff which demonstrates the effectiveness of the RP approach.”

Well done to the pupils involved with the day.
