Mrs Ince visited Year 4 on Thursday with her Year 10 art class. They have been designing party bags and requested feedback on which lettering, colours and designs were best. Year 4 gave some very honest opinions but are super excited to see the Year 10s again in a few weeks, once they have made their final products
On Saturday 18th January, the Zonal Trampolining championships were held at the Sports Wales National Centre in Cardiff, Wales. Millie, Evie, Priya and Megan made up the Derby High School 7 - 8 Novice group. Millie was competing as an individual and scored a total of 49.400 after both flights. This meant she came 5th overall. As a team everyone did their best and we were all happy with our performances and all our hours of hard work clearly paid off as we came 3rd.
Over my last few assemblies in Primary we have been following the Atlantic Challenge, a 3000 mile rowing race from La Gomera, Canary Islands to Antigua. 35 teams set off on Thursday December 12th all hoping to arrive in Antigua first.
This week has flown by, and for our U5 it has been a busy full week of mock examinations. Our U6 have now completed their mocks and are receiving their grades along with advice, support and targets to ensure they achieve their potential in the summer.
Happy New Year! It was wonderful to welcome our students and staff back this week filling the school with lovely chatter and laughter.

The music department at Derby High has a proud history of wowing audiences with outstanding performances, and Monday evening’s Senior Christmas Concert was no exception. It was wonderful to hear from such a variety of individuals, groups, ensembles and choirs. It really showcased the depth of talent from our students.
An enormous amount has been accomplished this term by pupils and staff.
