Year 7 had the wonderful opportunity to visit Warwick Castle on Tuesday 15^th July. Pupils were taken back in time as they visited the Grand Hall and State rooms viewing artefacts and portraits that all tell the story of the castle’s ownership through time. Their History lessons were brought to life when they observed the War of the Roses Jousting performance - a highlight of the day. The Falconers Quest demonstration was a real treat and brought a high level of excitement as the birds of prey swooped over the heads of pupils. Pupils also loved the opportunity to explore the grounds, climb the Tower and really experience was life was like in medieval England.

Turing Trip - Italy

From 1st – 5th July, pupils from all Matrix Academy Trust schools, including Elmwood School who are joining the Matrix family in September, embarked on the final International trip of the 2024–2025 academic year. The 55 children experienced an unforgettable week in the heart of Italy.

During their time in Italy, students explored some of Rome’s most iconic landmarks, including the awe-inspiring Colosseum and the Pantheon. A hands-on gladiator school experience gave everyone a taste of ancient Roman life — a highlight for many, even with the heat!

Adventurous spirits were tested on the high ropes course, followed by visits to the Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain, and the lively Piazza Navona. Although a planned trip to the Vatican was sadly cancelled due to a metro line closure, spirits remained high. Instead, the group enjoyed a sunny afternoon on the beach at Ostia, where paddling in the sea proved the perfect way to end a packed itinerary.

The behaviour of all students was exemplary throughout the trip — a real credit to the Trust and to their schools. The final trip of this year was a resounding success, leaving everyone with memories that will last a lifetime – and a lot of enthusiasm to participate in next year’s adventures!
