What a way to end lockdown learning! We started with the first lockdown form of the week and we are ending as the last lockdown form of the week! Couldn't be prouder of all my amazing Y7 superstars. @OutwoodShafton #CookIslandsisthebest
So proud of my Y7 form absolutely smashing their first week of online learning and 2021! Cook Islands cake has been promised once we are together again @OutwoodShafton
I wasn't sure whether I would enjoy this book as I don't usually read non-fiction. I'm glad I ignored my close mindedness as I have loved all the moments of high drama and tension! If you're 50/50 like me I really recommend you give it a try!

A quote to inspire you to pick up our @outwoodbookclub recommended read - Touching the Void!

Love a bit of #screenfreedom time after school
In lockdown, we're all spending a lot of time in front of screens, but it can be good for our mental health to have a break sometimes. Grace, 14, shares some activities you can try.

In between lessons make sure you get away from your screen. Maybe make a snowman
First week of lockdown live lessons done! Only been visited by Simba so far with 10X3 now invested in whether he will produce a toxic fart ruining my train of thought again. Who knows which pet will join my lessons next week 😅 @OutwoodShafton
Yes!
