🌪️ Just because Storm Bert decided to pay us a visit last weekend, didn't mean fun was cancelled in boarding! 🤩 Crossword quizzes, clay modelling Christmas decorations and painting a sign to remind Santa to come visit us at St Mary's.🎅🏻🎄
All of our students are so smart, and it's a pleasure to see the amazing things they create! We topped off the weekend with a cinema trip to see the new Wicked movie - another great weekend in boarding!

The first batch of Year 8 USB-powered lamps rolled off the production line this week in the Design Room. This year, Talbot Heath introduced a brand-new KS3 Design curriculum, equipping students with essential skills in designing and making. It provides hands-on experience with a variety of tools and machinery, enabling them to create exciting and innovative projects.

As part of their studies, Year 8 pupils have been designing and constructing their own desk lamps. They began by cutting and shaping plywood to create the lamp structure, developing their woodworking techniques. Next, they delved into basic electronics, soldering their own PCBs to power a USB powered LED light. Each lamp was completed with a custom-made lamp shade, designed to suit a specific target market, showcasing the students’ creativity and problem-solving skills.

Considering this is the first time these pupils have studied Design, their work has been outstanding! Featured here are fantastic lamp designs by Imogen, Holly, and Niamh. 🤩👏🏼
🎾 We are incredibly proud to be the No.2 Tennis School in GB 🇬🇧

We’re excited to announce that Elevate Education will be hosting their next parent webinar on resilience on December 3rd.

Elevate will be working with our year 10 and 11 students next February, delivering high-impact workshops on study skills, motivation, wellbeing, and exam preparation. By tuning into their webinar series, you’ll learn how you can help support your child at home by reinforcing the skills they’re learning at school. 

Sign up for the session below to learn how you can help your child to recover from a knock to their confidence. Whether that’s a disappointing grade, exam slip-up, or a less-than-perfect report. 

Here’s what Elevate will be covering on the night: 
✅ Practical strategies to help your child manage their response to setbacks 
✅ Building your child’s resilience both in and out of school 
✅ How ‘fear of failure’ can impact your child’s resilience
