Year 7 at Shrewsbury Academy loved making rock cakes🍰
Rock cakes are a traditional British treat with a rough, craggy surface, crunchy on the outside and soft inside, often filled with dried fruit such as sultanas. They became especially popular during WWII as they required less sugar and eggs, making them a simple and practical bake for tea time.
During the lesson, students showed exceptional organisation and listening skills as they learned and used the rubbing in method. This technique coats the flour in fat, reducing gluten development and helping to create a light, crumbly texture, perfect for cakes, scones and pastry.
A fantastic session full of learning, teamwork and practical skills. Well done Year 7 🌟

It is so lovely to see so many students making the most of our Fitness Suite first thing in the morning. Arriving from 7.30am with such commitment and positivity, they have been training all year round. Their dedication is something to be really proud of 💪✨
Students were given bananas for a quick burst of energy and to help them understand how small choices can make a big difference to their training.
A huge well done to everyone who continues to show up, work hard and support each other. What a fantastic start to the day! 🍌👏

STEM Clubs are on a roll at Shrewsbury Academy 🧪🚀
Our Summer Term STEM Programme is packed with exciting hands on activities, from celebrating Easter periodic table style and making polymer water beads, to slime experiments, phony physics, medical madness and even balloon rockets.
Children will work in teams, solve puzzles and explore science, technology, engineering, arts and maths in fun and memorable ways.
We love seeing curiosity, creativity and problem solving skills come to life through experiences like this, and we cannot wait for another brilliant term of STEM learning.

Investigating anaerobic respiration, Red Nose Day style 🔬🔴
Year 9 at Shrewsbury Academy have been exploring anaerobic respiration by yeast, investigating how the mass of glucose affects the volume of carbon dioxide produced. They did a fantastic job testing their ideas and proved their hypothesis that increasing the amount of glucose increases the products formed.
To link their learning with Comic Relief, they even added a red nose to the biggest balloon collecting the gas, a brilliant reminder of the important work supported by the charity.

Our Year 8 scientists have been absolutely on fire in their Science lessons! They demonstrated excellent safe use of tongs while reacting a metal with oxygen and showed brilliant understanding as they explored their Key Stage 3 topic “Reactions”. It has been lovely to see their excitement… and their reactions to the chemical reactions too!

Our Year 9s have been getting creative in Textiles as they explored the theme “Under the Microscope”. They experimented with printing and embroidery techniques to produce beautiful pieces inspired by blood cells.
They have learned a whole range of stitches including couching, back stitch, running stitch, basket stitch and cross stitch, building both confidence and skill with every lesson. These techniques are not only fantastic for artistic expression but also invaluable life skills that can help students repair and personalise their own clothing, reducing waste and challenging fast fashion 🧵✨🩸

Our Year 7 students have been busy showcasing their fantastic speaking and writing skills.
After working hard in previous lessons to write their own persuasive speeches aimed at the 1850 government, they were eager to read them aloud to the whole class. Their confidence inspired others to join in too, creating a brilliant atmosphere of encouragement and participation.
It was wonderful to see such enthusiasm for speaking, listening and persuasive writing - a real celebration of student voice and creativity 👏✨🗣️

Our Year 7 scientists have been doing a brilliant job learning about parallel circuits and how to keep bulbs bright with equal potential difference. A huge well done to our performer of the lesson, who confidently demonstrated how to set up the circuit with support from his expert friend (and STEM Club member!).
The class can now confidently use ammeters (in series) and voltmeters (in parallel), and they are becoming skilled at drawing circuits and recognising circuit symbols.
By building and investigating both series and parallel circuits, they are learning the rules in a memorable, hands on way. Lesson grade 1 - outstanding 🌟🔬👏
