VOCATIONAL
VIRTUAL BABY PROJECT The Mothers Union have been in school again to allow the year 10s and 12s an opportunity to care for a virtual baby for the weekend. Firstly they delivered a lesson on what it takes to be a good parent and students considered financial implications and stability of a relationship before planning to have a child. The weekend allowed the girls to experience how difficult it is to look after a baby and hopefully they all want to wait until circumstances in their lives are correct before embarking on this for real!
Some of their words at the end of the weekend:
“It was soooo hard.” “Do I have to go to lessons today?” “I’m never doing that again.” “It was fun, but im going to wait until Im 30.”
“We were judged as being a teenaer when we were out and about in Westbury, and had to explain it was a school project.”
At the end of the project the Mothers Union will be back to do a follow up lesson about learning outcomes and to share the girl’s experiences (highs and lows).
My Health and Social Care group would like to say a massive thank you to the Mothers Union for giving them this experience.
THE BUSINESS STUDIES CLUB
This term the MBA (Matravers Business Association) has been planning a Christmas Card Deliver Service for the final weeks of the term.
The club made up of: Year 7’s Chloe Patton-Cuff Tom Saxby Daniel Saxby
Year 9’s Luke Crockford-Ward George Howard Elizabeth Orrell Bryony Patton-Cuff
The students presented their idea to Dr Riding and received a shining review. The group are now making their final preparations for advertising during assembly and tutor times. They are hoping to raise enough money to fund further business activities in in 2018 including the annual Valentines Rose service as well as M-Fest ventures.
