Fire Safety Awareness in Year 7 Last week, our Year 7 students took part in an eye-opening session with Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue Service, learning about the risks and consequences of setting fires. They explored the devastating impact fire can have on lives and communities, and engaged in thoughtful discussions around peer pressure and anti-social behaviour. A big thank you to the fire service team for helping our students understand the importance of making safe, responsible choices. #FireSafety #CommunityAwareness #Year7 #TyneAndWearFire #RespectResponsibilitySafety #NorthGosforthAcademy #GosforthGroup #creatingfutures
View PostYesterday, students in Spanish learned about a Spanish celebration. The 9th of October is "El Día de la Comunitat Valenciana", a day which is celebrated every year to commemorate the day on which King James I liberated the region of Valencia from the Moorish rule and created the autonomous region of Valencia. It is also the Valencian version of St Valentine's day. Students have learned all about the festival, parades, traditions and fireworks and have been really curious in their questions about this celebration. Lots of excellent discussions have taken place. Well done! #NorthGosforthAcademy #CreatingFutures #GosforthGroup #LerningSpanish

View PostWorld Mental Health Day Mental health is the foundation of a healthy life, both at home and in every community, including schools. Today, we observe World Mental Health Day, a time to reflect on how we care for ourselves and for one another. This year's theme, "Access to Services Mental Health in Catastrophes and Emergencies," reminds us that support must be available not just in clinics or hospitals, but also in the places we live and learn. At home, open conversations and emotional support can make all the difference. In schools, creating safe, inclusive environments helps young people thrive - especially during times of stress or crisis. In our communities, we must ensure that mental health care is accessible to everyone, everywhere especially in emergencies. Let's continue to: Break the stigma Support mental well-being in every space Advocate for services that reach those who need them most Because mental health is a right - not a privilege. #WorldMentalHealthDay #MentalHealthMatters #AccessToCare #SupportAtHome #SupportInSchools #WMHD2025 #gosforthgroup #NorthGosforthAcademy
