Drayton Manor Park & Zoo
Year 8’s had great
fun and were perfect role models at Drayton Manor. First class driving
on the Dodgems by all – even the adults! Everyone got soaked on the
Rapids and the Log Flume. Chris Hedge was the star trying all the big
rides. A perfect day enjoyed by all, well done
Year 7 Visit to
Kedleston Hall
We enjoyed learning
about the past at Kedleston Hall. The House was enormous. It is
fun learning together with friends. We finished off our day getting fit
at Markeaton Park.
St
Martins Outdoor Trailblazers
Pupils
Josh Hill, Ryan Riddings and Callum Miller have been practising their
Bushcraft Skills with Mr Tranter as part of their Outdoor Activities
classes. They are planning a camping and fishing trip in the summer term
and have been practising their cooking and fire making skills.
Sports Relief and School Cross Country- Mr. Lawrence/Mr. Tranter
On
Friday 19th
March, the school raised money in aid of Sports Relief. Firstly, pupils
took part in the schools annual ‘Cross Country Race’ and ‘Fun Run’ at
Alvaston Park. It was fantastic to see so many pupils take part and it
probably was the biggest turn out of pupils in St. Martin’s history!
Well done to everyone who took part and congratulations must go to Craig
Carter in year 11 who has won the Cross Country several times during his
time at St. Martins.
Pupils
also took part in a range of events include non-uniform day, break
dancing, Wii Fit dance and Wii Fit Hoola Hoop challenges. Some students
also competed in a charity football match vs. St. Andrews School.
Unfortunately we lost 3-2, but at the end of the day it was all for a
good cause. Everyone had a great day and we are pleased to have made a
positive contribution by helping those in need.

O.C.N. SKILLS FOR SHOPPING
As
part of our skills for shopping module, Emma ,Nicole, Patricia, Jolana,
Sophie, and Mrs Malone visited IKEA in Nottingham! Who says
accreditation is BORING!!! We looked around at all the great furniture
on offer trying to imagine how we could spend our money! This was
after sampling their delicious breakfast of scrambled egg,
sausage,
bacon, beans, tomato, and hash browns!
We all
recommend the breakfast and at 99pence it’s a MUST!
Its back, staff at
the RAMS study centre are working with 8 of our students at Derby
County’s Pride Park Stadium for 6 weeks.
So far the
students have had the opportunity to have a look around the stadium,
visit the players changing area and have their photo taken in the
television interview room.
Over the next 4
weeks the students will be making music, animation and much more. Good
luck to all the
students
involved.
