8M had a lovely visit to Aldeburgh this week where they visited the scallop shell sculpture and had fun throwing stones into the sea.

They also went to The Red House, where they had a chance to explore the grounds and participate in some Stone Age activities. They got to listen to some beautiful harp music and see where the Queen once took tea!

Our students all showed great engagement and represented the school superbly.

What an amazingly successful first full week back for the children at Stone Lodge Academy. We've been so impressed with how well the students have consistently demonstrated our school values of self-belief, resilience, respect and ambition.

The school council and I have an exciting meeting next week to discuss more student leadership opportunities and the potential new house structure. Look out for my welcome back letter at the start of next week with key dates for the rest of this term.

Have a great weekend!

Our final sailing session of the term was a very special one, as our students had the opportunity to showcase everything they have learned while being joined in their boats by family members.

Congratulations to the entire group on achieving their Silver Sailability Award. A fantastic achievement, and a well deserved recognition of all their hard work and progress this term! ⛵👏

🏅HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS DAY 2026🏅

What a fantastic time we had today at our Key Stage 3&4 Sports Day!

It was amazing to see so many of our children giving their absolute all, supported by their families who, despite the heat, turned out in force and created the most incredible atmosphere. Your cheering and encouragement all throughout the day made it a truly special event!

A huge thank you to Mrs Read and the PE Department for all of their hard work in planning, organising and delivering yet another outstanding Sports Day 🏆

☀️ High School Sports Day – Tomorrow (July 6th) ☀️

High School Sports Day will go ahead as planned tomorrow.

With the hot weather forecast, please make sure all pupils come prepared with:
💧 A filled water bottle
🧴 Sunscreen applied before they arrive at school
🧢 A hat or cap for sun protection

We’ll be keeping a close eye on the weather throughout the day and making sure everyone stays safe and hydrated. We’ll review the conditions during our picnic lunch and decide whether it’s suitable to continue with the afternoon events or whether we’ll need to finish early if it becomes too hot.

Thank you for your support – we’re looking forward to a great day!
