Flashback to 2024 when we were visited by Brian Cox as part of his ‘School Experiments’ series. Brian worked alongside Mr Griggs and our students. Take a look for yourself here:
📚✨ Year 8 enjoyed a fantastic day celebrating reading at the Portsmouth School Library Service Awards event at Portsmouth University!
After reading and voting on the shortlisted titles alongside students from schools across the city, they were excited to hear that The Vulpine by Polly Crosby was crowned the winner of the Portsmouth Book Awards. Students also had the opportunity to hear Polly speak about her journey as a reader and writer, with Darcy even asking about her favourite author and book.
The day also included a visit to Portsmouth Central Library, where students explored the extensive collections before settling down to enjoy a story together. A brilliant day filled with inspiration, curiosity and a love of reading! 📖🌟
