Activities Week <strong>2016</strong><br />
Structures and Interpretation<br />
This<br />
is the fourth year we have run Activities Week and this year we had a<br />
focus on Structures and Interpretation. Departments across the school<br />
worked hard to create amazing opportunities for our students in years 7-10 and year<br />
12 to grow and develop through innovative projects and learning opportunities from<br />
creating beautiful butterfly sculptures inspired by nature, a production in a day through a<br />
media and performing arts project entitled, “Fluid Borders” to building Norman castles,<br />
entrepreneurial challenges, investigating crystal formation and exploring the structures<br />
and cells in dissection lessons.<br />
The week challenged the students to think in a different way and undertake new learning<br />
through fantastic opportunities, including for the first year, 500 + students venturing<br />
out to learn away from the classroom. These included visits to explore local historical<br />
venues and venture further into London to complete various maths and geography based<br />
challenges.<br />
Here are some of the activities listed below:<br />
• Art in Maths<br />
• Microscopic<br />
• Buildings<br />
• Natural History<br />
Museum<br />
• Crystals<br />
• Pompeii<br />

On Friday 8th July <strong>2016</strong>, students in years 7-10 concluded the week with their Dream Rewards Day<br />
with many off-site adventures. Activities Week <strong>2016</strong> has opened up new opportunities and exciting<br />
challenges and like the previous years, has given the students and staff at <strong>Cranford</strong> the opportunity to<br />
work together to achieve some amazing outcomes and a great week had by all.<br />
