Significant Milestone Projects:

March 2022: Throne Building Project with Sir John Lang Trust

In March 2022, our pupils had the opportunity to work on a project to build a wooden throne on our playfield, following a kind donation and assistance from the Sir John Lang Trust.

This video shows our pupils heavily engaged in the building process and is a great example of what can be achieved when they work together. 

Well done boys!
