Year 7 enjoyed a wonderful day out in London, visiting two significant places of worship: the West London Synagogue and St Paul’s Cathedral. At the synagogue, students saw the Torah scroll, the menorah, and asked questions about the ancient Hebrew writing on the walls. At St Paul’s, they sat in the choir stalls, marvelled at the beautiful mosaic ceilings, lit candles to remember loved ones, and ventured up to walk around the dome. It was a fantastic cultural day enjoyed by all!

We thoroughly enjoyed welcoming the Year 4 students from @hillcroftprimaryschool yesterday for an exciting Science workshop! 💡 The pupils enthusiastically explored Human Circuits, investigating components and building circuits to deepen their understanding of electricity. They also experimented with a variety of materials to determine whether they were conductors or insulators. A fantastic afternoon of hands-on learning and scientific discovery!

It was fantastic to welcome some of our Student Voice representatives into the canteen for a special taste-testing session! 🍽️ They sampled a range of dishes and gave honest, constructive feedback on what foods they enjoy — and what could be improved. Their input is invaluable in helping shape a canteen menu that reflects their tastes and needs. More importantly, it's brilliant to see students actively involved in decisions that impact their daily school life. 👏 #StudentVoicesMatter #destaffordschool #Elior

We had the great privilege of celebrating the achievements of some of our wonderful mathematicians. From Year 7 and Year 8, 57 students achieved either a Bronze, Silver or Gold certificate in the recent UK Mathematics Trust Junior Challenge. Maggie M (Year 7) was awarded a Silver award and ‘Best in Year’, while Edward C, Elina L, James P and Callum W received Gold awards with Callum not only gaining ‘Best in School’ but also has been invited to participate within the Junior Kangaroo Competition which will take place later this month. We are incredibly proud of all the students that took part, very well done. 🤩
