Maths Super Learning Day! The whole of KS2 took part in an exciting Maths Super Learning Day, diving into the four operations through a range of fun and challenging activities.

KS4 Art Learning Spotlight Our KS4 students have been producing some incredible work inspired by contemporary artists! Georgina has recreated the style of Abby Diamond, capturing her expressive use of line, colour, and energetic markmaking to create her stunning bird. Her piece shows real confidence and a developing personal style. Reyyan has taken inspiration from Tamara Phillips, using delicate patterns and flowing watercolour effects to create this fantastic rabbit artwork. A beautiful blend of technique and imagination! We're so proud of the creativity and ambition our artists are showing in their studies. Keep it up! #greatparkacademyart #CreativityInAction #YoungArtists #ArtInspiration #GreatParkAcademy #gosforthgroup #CreatingFutures #studentsuccess

GPA Artist of the Week. Huge congratulations to Molly in Year 10, whose commitment to developing her artistic skills has truly paid off! She has created a beautiful mixedmedia frog, experimenting with texture, layering, and colour to bring her design to life. Molly has shown brilliant focus in class, refining her ideas, responding thoughtfully to feedback, and pushing her creative techniques further each lesson. Her final piece is full of character and showcases how much she's grown as a talented artist. Well done, Molly - we can't wait to see what you create next! #GreatParkAcademyArt #ArtistOfTheWeek #CreativityInAction #StudentSuccess #GreatParkAcademy #GosforthGroup #creatingfutures

German Enrichment Day with the Munich Supercrew! We were thrilled to host the amazing Munich Supercrew last week for a special German enrichment event, and it was electric from start to finish. Students kicked off the day learning German in fun, interactive sessions, then wrapped it up by joining a full-on German rock concert right here in school! We were proud to welcome four other schools to share in the experience, making it a brilliant celebration of language, music, and culture. Here's a mini video capturing the energy of the day with clips featuring our students, staff, and the band's lead singer. Enjoy the highlights! #GreatParkAcademy #GosforthGroup #CreatingFutures #LanguageLearning #CommunitySchools #GermanEnrichment
