Diwali 2020
Our Middle Years pupils have been studying Diwali this week and have created a colourful display of their work.
They did some fabulous artwork and they even experimented with henna hand painting!
Careers Day
Careers Day 2020 looked a little different to previous years but that did not stop us from having fun investigating lots of different careers and job opportunities.
Students in Upper and Lower School took part in the Somerset Careers Day online whilst our Middle Years children wrote some great Career Pathways. Our Chard centre had a great day discovering what it takes to join the Armed Forces with some fantastic commando crawl demonstrations from some of our staff!
Armistice Day 2020
On Wednesday 11th November 2020 students and staff at SSPS commemorated Armistice Day across our school sites.
At 11:00am all students and staff stopped working and observed a 2 minute silence to remember our service men and women who fought in the last 2 world wars, as well as those involved in more recent conflicts around the world. Students at our Dampier Street site joined our neighbours the Fire Service to show their respect.
Lots of other learning and activities also took place to mark the occasion, including some really great artwork.
SSPS students are published!
Congratulations to more of South Somerset Partnership School students who have been selected to be published in a short story anthology! Watch this space for publication of the book coming this winter.
