During our End Of Term Assembly, Year 7 spoke about Resilience. We watched a video about a boy who showed resilience and then spoke about times where we had been resilient. The students were great in sharing their ideas and were very proud of their certificates!

Our hair and beauty students have been looking at the clippers this week. 💇 They have been looking at how the clippers function and the different size guards used. They put the guards in order and then had a go at using them to see the different lengths that they cut.😁🧡💚💙

Last week, St Clare's had their annual sports day. This year, students took part in a variety of field and track events. We are so proud of the effort that each individual student put in. It was great to see St Clare's School come together as a community to celebrate.🏆🧡💚💙
