We had fun celebrating European Day of Languages last week with a treasure hunt around the school. ✨

To celebrate the theme of ‘Languages Unite’, students had to find the six words for ‘Friend’ hidden around the school. Well done to Daniel, Jackson, Lacie, Ruby and Ava who were drawn out as our prize winners! 🌎

🥋🏆 What an incredible achievement! 🥈🥉

A huge congratulations to Year 9 student, Henry! Recently, Henry competed at the AMA Northern Open Karate Championships in Bury, taking part in three categories.

After a full year of hard work, dedication and regular training, he achieved an incredible 2nd place (Silver) in Kata and 3rd place (Bronze) in Kumite (sparring), competing in the 13–15 age category and going up against competitors older than him.

This is a huge achievement, competing against some of the best in the country, we are incredibly proud! 🥈🥉

We have proudly been presented the National Whole School Wellbeing Gold Award! ✨

What does this mean for our young people? 💭

Being recognised for our achievements in Raising Attainment Through Wellbeing is a fantastic acknowledgement of the work taking place across Waltham Toll Bar Academy.

Most importantly, it means that student wellbeing will continue to be at the heart of everything we do.

We know that when young people feel safe, supported and listened to, they are better able to learn, grow and achieve. Providing safe spaces where students can talk, share their worries and access the right support helps them to feel more confident and ready to succeed—not only academically, but also as individuals.

This recognition celebrates the work we have already done to support our young people, while also reinforcing our commitment to continuing that work.

For our students, it means we will keep creating an environment where their wellbeing matters, their voices are heard and they are supported to reach their full potential.

Last week, the Year 7 Girls Football Team played their first match together in the national cup. ⚽✨ Every student showed a fantastic attitude, determination and skill throughout (including super keeping from Isla C, not pictured).

Up against a strong Malet Lambert side, there was solid battles all over the pitch and two wonder goals from Sophie resulting in a 2-2 draw to go to penalties. What a fantastic display on their first outing, we can wait to see what they bring over the years!

Our FIRST Poetry Café! ✨📚

Last week we held our very first Poetry Café in the library, an open space for staff and students to read and discover poetry of both published poets and themselves. 🌟

The session was fantastic, and our students were phenomenal. They shared thoughtful explanations of their poems and listened to one another with such sensitivity and maturity throughout.💭

It was a wonderful celebration of poetry, creativity and our very talented student voice.

On Thursday, our Year 10, 11, 12 and 13 Dance and Performing Arts students had the fantastic opportunity to visit Leicester Curve Theatre to watch ZooNation's 'Sylvia'. ✨

The performance took the students back in time, bringing to life the story of the Pankhurst family and their significant role in the fight for women's rights. From powerful vocals and captivating performances to dynamic and energetic choreography, Sylvia had our students completely captivated.
