Build your own Future.

This week the CLC ran a cross curricular DT, Geography and Citizenship session for St Albans and Bordesley Green Girls school.

The pupils had to design and plan a community for the future by working in groups to discuss what features should be included. Looking at the geographical features of the land and practical ways to improve energy effieciency; the pupils had to build 3D models and decide where to site them in their community taking into consideration sustainability and renewable energy technologies.

Watch this Space!

This week Bordesley Green Girls School completed their P.E Perfomance Analysis for a part of their GCSE exam. Recording a game of rounders then watching it back to see how each pupil performed allowed them to take on board various techniques and errors which occured.


Also Al-Hijrah School participated in the CLC Space Day. The Pupils from years 7,8 and 9 learnt about micro gravity and the effect it has on a person. Looking at aspects such as food, drink, leisure and exercise gave an outline of the habitual enviroment for an astronaut. The day was full of engaging mental and physical exercises which everyone enjoyed.


Activities ranged from designing a space station using Google sketchup to building rockets and launching them in the playground using pressure launching equipment.
Pupils recieved certificates to state the completion of the space day and winners of the Rocket Challenge got an extra certificate for their part.
