Year 12 - Activities Week and Monopoly Challenge<br />

The<br />

week started off on Monday 4th July <strong>2016</strong> with year 12 Students working in<br />

form groups to create a structure inspired by a famous European landmark.<br />

Students had to design their structure and pitch their idea to Ms Kaher in exchange for a<br />

variety of resources. They then worked against the clock to construct their idea, using the<br />

resources acquired during the pitch and eventually present it to the rest of the year group.<br />

After much scavenging in various departments students finally created structures<br />

“Hats off” to 12W who won out right with their spectacular design, with 12Q and 12U not far behind.<br />

Wednesday 6th July <strong>2016</strong> was the annual Rewards Day trip for year 12 where students took part in<br />

the Monopoly Challenge. It was indeed a challenging day which saw students split into groups and<br />

once again race against the clock to visit as many popular sights in London as<br />

physically possible in one day. Everyone made it back in one piece... eventually.<br />

Congratulations to the winning team, Ziah Charles, Aarina Babra, Navpreet Jassy,<br />

Mariam Quireshi, Tara Williams won the Challenge with 5100 points. Their prize<br />

is dinner at Nandos.<br />

On Thursday 7th July <strong>2016</strong> students were involved in a range of sessions aimed at<br />

developing their personal and academic understanding of the world. Students were<br />

fortunate enough to discover the seven traits of what makes a person successful<br />

and learnt about different aspects related to health and relationships presented<br />

by NHS nurses who were on hand to answer any questions. There was also time<br />

for students to work independently on their UCAS applications.<br />

Friday 8th July <strong>2016</strong> was organised meticulously by Ms Tomkins and<br />

was focused on Careers. Students had the opportunity to choose from 13<br />

workshops ranging from writing an effective CV to Building Your Own<br />

Brand. This was an invaluable experience for students and everyone<br />

walked out of the workshops with smiles on their faces and a spring in<br />

their step.<br />

Over all the week was highly successful - students had the chance to take<br />

part in a range of activities and opportunities what will hold them in good<br />

stead for when they leave <strong>Cranford</strong> and enter wider world.<br />

A big thank you to Mr Biggs and Ms Tomkins for all their hard work in<br />

creating an exciting and resourceful activities programme for year 12.<br />
