Our recent Poetry By Heart competition was a true celebration of language, expression, and confidence. Students took to the stage to read and perform a poem of their choiceand they were incredible. From classic verses to contemporary voices, each performance was filled with emotion, energy, and passion. The talent on display was inspiring. Every student brought something unique to the spotlight, showing not just their memory skills but their deep connection to the words they chose. A huge well done to everyone who took partyou made poetry come alive!
Our amazing readers have done it again! A huge shoutout to our fantastic students who took part in the National Reading Champions Quiz, going head-to-head with schools from all across Wales! They tackled some seriously challenging literature questions and narrowly missed out on first place by just one mark! We couldn't be prouder of how brilliantly they represented our school. As a reward for their hard work and incredible effort, they'll each be receiving reading vouchersgifted by the National Literacy Trust. Da iawn!
Wednesday 2nd April the Sixth Form Headship Team organised the JFS first Eid Celebration. The Sixth Form Headship team wanted to invite the school to join in this special event and to share the reasons behind Ramadan and Eid and share the enjoyment of this celebration. The Sixth Form team organised a 'Wear your Own Clothes Day' along with an Eid Celebration in the main hall for all students with stalls and games for the students to take part in, some these included Henna, sweet bags and the Eid Money Wallet game. There was also stalls with free tasters of date fruits, mango juice and Rooh Afza drink for students to experience some of the traditions around celebrating Eid. During the celebration there was a lovely buzz and atmosphere in the main hall, and credit goes to the Sixth Form students and the Y10 and Y11 helpers who create this. The event in the hall raise just over £400 which will goes towards the Sxixh Form Prom and the Schools chosen charity. Well done to all that were involved in this day and to the Sixth Form Students for proposing the event.
