We are extremely proud of two of our Year 8 cadets who gave up their own time at the weekend to support the British Legion by selling poppies as part of Remembrance Day.

The pupils Cadet Davis and Virk sold poppies in conjunction with the local ATC 196 (Walsall) Squadron on Bloxwich High Street.

An excellent example of our academy values!

We are delighted to launch our themed menus for 2023/24 off the back of our very successful new menu for the academic year. 

These special days are an opportunity to celebrate events, festivals and cultures from around the world across all of the Matrix Academy Trust schools. Not only will these provide pupils with a wide range of food experiences but will also compliment our Personal Development curriculum and Theme of the Week.

Watch this space for more updates on our menus and the wonderful food that we will be offering as part of these events.

It is always an honour to present the Black History Month assembly. Learning about this part of history and celebrating our differences is vital in bringing together the school community. By shining a light on just a few Black icons, and exploring their diverse stories, I hope I can start some important conversations and ultimately show the school that greatness can come from anywhere.

Mr Abban

This year harvest festival will be celebrated on 1^st October.

Harvest Festival celebrates the time of year when crops have been gathered from the field and people can reflect and show gratitude for the food that they have.

Starting this week, houses will be competing to see who can collect the most items over the harvest period. Bring your items to you house office.

Please donate tinned items or items in sealed packets only.

On the last week before half term, we will count the items and announce the winning house.

Al items collected will then be donated to a local food bank.

Well done to all of the Year 9 boys who took part in their first match of the season against Heath Park.

There were plenty of positives from the match. The boys showed great fight throughout challenging for every ball. There was plenty to take from the game, which shows that the boys have the foundations of a good side.

Tuesday 19th September was our first interhouse competition of the year. All the Ks3 students was really well behaved, and we saw some brilliant basketball being played, overall, it was an amazing success with loads of excited and eager students attending the event. The overall scores from the competition were close, with Warwick winning the event with 15 points, Tamworth was second with 11 points, Kenilworth were third with 9 points and Dudley came last with 9 points.

WELL DONE WARWICK!

A huge congratulations to all students who took part in the event and a big thank you to Mr Harris and Miss Morris for officiating the games and making the event a huge success.

Wednesfield Academy will be using Classcharts to log pupils’ behaviour and praise points. The new Weduc app will be used for parental communication such as sending letters home. Once the issues with WeDuc are resolved Wednesfield will not longer use the My Child At School App at all. The reason the MCAS app is still being used to send letters home currently is due to the problems with the Weduc app that we are working with the company to resolve. We apologise for the confusion caused, and are trying to rectify matters as soon as possible.

We are so proud of our Year 11 pupils!

Congratulations to everyone who picked up their results today.

For those of you returning to our Sixth Form; we cannot wait to see you on the Tuesday 5^th September.

If you are leaving us to go elsewhere, we wish you all the best.

Wednesfield Academy are proud of the achievements of our Year 13 students and wish to congratulate them on their results.  We wish them all the success on theirchosen pathway whether that be University, apprenticeships, or the world of work.
