🐉 𝗕𝗧𝗘𝗖 𝗔𝗻𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲 🐉 A new member of the Animal care team As announced by Mr Markham this morning, we are delighted to introduce the newest addition to the Central family. Our new Bearded Dragon will play a key role in our Animal Care programme, teaching our Year 10 students key skills on handling and husbandry. Now, the challenge is up to our students, what should we call our dragon? All name suggestions can be added to the box outside of Mr Markham’s office this week before our Year 10 students select a name next week! Don’t miss your chance to play a very different role in the future of our academy community! #AnimalCare #AmbitionResilienceRespect #WeAreRRCA
💪🏼 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲 💪🏼 🌎 Riley maps out the win 🌍 A huge well done to Riley (Yr 8) who took the win in this morning’s house challenge, getting the first win of the year for house Valentia! 💛 All three of our student competitors scored full marks in their respective rounds, which involved identifying countries by their flags. Riley came out as the challenge winner, being the first to identify Egypt 🇪🇬 in the tiebreaker round. A huge well done must go to Dominic (Yr 7) and Jesse (Yr 8) who also scored full marks in their rounds, beaten only by Riley’s quick tiebreak answer. Three worthy competitors, who were all great and in Mr Armstrong’s words, “very well taught in Geography 🙂”. This mornings scores take Valentia level with house Luguvalium who have scored one win each this year. We will see you during Monday break next week for round 3️⃣! #HouseChallenge #AmbitionResilienceRespect #WeAreRRCA
