Who doesn’t love Lego, apart from when you step on it with a bare foot! 🧱
Crew time Fun Fridays continued with lots of creativity as our children got stuck into building with Lego. There were some fantastic ideas on show, plenty of teamwork, and even a competition to see who could build the longest necked giraffe.
A brilliant way to end the week, encouraging imagination, problem solving and lots of smiles.

📝💡 Revision Technique #8: Self-Quizzing 💡📝
Want to test how well you really know a topic? Self-Quizzing is a powerful and active way to reinforce your learning and build confidence for your exams!
Here’s how to do it:
1️⃣ Create Your Own Questions: After revising a topic, write down a list of questions based on the key points.
2️⃣ Test Yourself: Try to answer the questions without looking at your notes or textbooks.
3️⃣ Check Your Answers: After quizzing yourself, compare your answers with your notes and identify areas that need more work.
Why it works:
🔸 Actively recalling information helps strengthen your memory.
🔸 Shows you exactly what you know and what needs more attention.
🔸 Improves exam technique and helps you feel more prepared.
💡 Pro Tip: Use online quiz tools or flashcard apps to make self-quizzing even easier and more interactive!
Give self-quizzing a go this week and boost your confidence!

🌟 Student Spotlight 🌟
Meet Sophie Ryan, who studied at Marches Sixth Form between 2019 and 2021 and has gone on to build an inspiring pathway in conservation and environmental science.
Since leaving Sixth Form, Sophie studied BA Animal Welfare and Society at Winchester University, graduating with a First Class Honours degree. She is now completing her MSc in Applied Wildlife Conservation, working alongside ecologists and conservation projects to support real‑world improvements to wildlife protection.
Sophie’s journey has already taken her across the world. She has worked on a marine conservation project in Costa Rica, helping to protect sea turtle species from poaching and habitat destruction, and has supported wildlife rescue centres as an assistant. She is currently waiting to hear about her next project, with hopes of exploring human–wildlife interactions between predators and people in Greece.
Alongside her studies, Sophie works part‑time as a brand ambassador for Untamed ethical cat food and volunteers in data analysis for rewilding projects in Somerset, combining academic knowledge with practical impact.
Sophie’s story is a brilliant example of how Sixth Form can open doors to meaningful, global opportunities and help students follow their passions with confidence.
If you are considering Sixth Form and wondering where your journey could take you, come and join us and see what is possible 😊

200 Sixth Form young people came together for a thoughtful and important discussion about cancer 💛
It is a difficult topic, but our young people approached the conversation with maturity, empathy and respect. We were incredibly proud to see how openly they engaged, supported one another and listened with care throughout.
Creating space for honest conversations like this is an important part of supporting wellbeing and helping our young people grow into compassionate and confident adults.

This year’s ski trip was a real success, despite having to make some last minute changes to ensure it could go ahead.
Originally planned for a larger group, the trip was reduced so that our Year 11 students could still take part, giving them their final opportunity to experience this visit.
It was fantastic to see how much progression the students made over the course of the trip. Conditions were excellent and everyone made the most of the experience, showing resilience, determination and a willingness to challenge themselves.
A huge thank you to the staff who gave up their time to support the trip. Without their commitment and care, opportunities like this simply would not be possible. Team Marches 💙
