What a day! πŸ™Œ
Our wonderful student Fraser and his brother were lucky enough to spend the day at Plymouth Argyleβ€”watching the players train and enjoying lunch with the team.
Memories made and smiles all round ⚽️

As part of our first THRIVE tutor session, Glynn House students competed in the spaghetti marshmallow tower building challenge.

The winning groups tower was 91.5cm and was able to withstand a fan on the highest setting. Very impressive!

Some of our Year 11 Glynn House students went to HFC yesterday morning and were treated to a backstage tour to give them an insight of different career opportunities in the world of theatre and performance.

Thank you to the Hall for Cornwall for the experience!

On Weds, we were joined by Claudia from GEL Energy, telling us all about the UK's first geothermal powerstation at United Downs near Redruth. It was a really informative and interesting session.

Claudia is also running a session for our online Y10 next week.

Thank you Claudia!

Fi's student made some lovely marbled fimo keyrings yesterday. She came up with lots of great ideas on what to make. Don't they look great?

Thank you to the charity 'Unbeatable Eva' who are going to supply some tube yarn so we can hand knot a blanket.
