Despite us being a Healthy Eating school, this summer in Art 7RB and 7CMB studied the American Painter Wayne Thiebaud and took inspiration from his paintings of rows of Milk Shakes, Ice creams, cakes- Fast Food of the 1960’s and painted sweets
Thursday 8th June we attended the U13 (Year 7 & 8) District Athletics at Rugby Athletics Stadium. It was a very soggy day in Rugby after several days of heavy rain so conditions were not ideal, however we kept our positive attitude and carried on regardless.
Izzie Rees (7RB) made this cake for her English homework, to represent the difficulties that soldiers had to face, when living in the trenches.WELL DONE IZZIE, a superb piece of work!
We work hard to ensure that learning is at the centre of all that we do and are very proud of the achievements of our current and past students. The examination results in 2016 were outstandingly high as has become the norm here at Sponne. Congruatulations to you all for achieving so well. Sponne is a
vibrant learning environment and we encourage all of our students to
actively engage in all that we offer. Many events take place in
addition to our ‘normal’ planned lessons and details for some of these
can be found on our website.
I hope that you will find helpful information on our website but do contact us if you would like any further details.
Thursday 6th July 2017 was the 6th Annual Summer School Games at Moulton Collage, Northampton. These School Games are like a mini Olympics and include an Opening and Closing Ceremony and Medal presentation at the end of the day. The Games include an array of sports for all different age groups for children from across the county. Earlier in the School Year Sponne Year 7 Cyclists had previously won the preliminary round held at Sponne and were eagerly anticipating an exciting day ahead.
The Weather was extremely hot and with little shade near the outside track it was extremely tough going. The sprint races saw us secure a 1st place from Tom Blewett and two 2nd places from Freya Shepherd and Madeline Pritchett.
Sponne School's recent application to the Tesco Bags of Help Grant Scheme has been successful.
Our project will be put forward to a customer vote in the Tesco store in Towcester during July and August 2017. Please support our cause 'Mental Health Support for Local Families' and the funding will help ensure we can offer support to the young people at Sponne and their families.
Thank you
Stepping Up To Sponne In September?
As your child starts their final term at Primary School, your thoughts will naturally be turning to their forthcoming transfer to Sponne in September. In order to make this a welcoming experience, and to answer as many questions as we can for you in advance, we will be visiting your child in their primary setting over the next few months.
An Information Booklet will be given out at this time; it can also be downloaded here
Welcome Year 6s!
We are very much looking forward to welcoming and meeting our new students due to start in September at our transition events that are happening soon.
Thursday 6th and Friday 7th July are the Induction Days when the Year 6s come to school and experience what school will be like in September. They will travel around the school having the opportunity to meet a range of teachers in a wide variety of subject areas, sample the canteen food, and of course, meet lots of new friends!
