  • Ready to Roar!

    Published 09/07/24

    We had a visit from a Paleontologist! During this activity learners found lots of fossils hidden in the school gym. Using the special tools and brushes provided and taking great care learners uncovered a variety of fossils. From the folders provided learners were able to cross reference the fossils with information from the largest land dinosaur to a tiny star fish. Alongside this learners were reminded of carnivores, herbivores and how dinosaurs adapted to their habitat when they roamed our planet.

  • Are you ready to go wild at Yorkshire Wildlife Park?

    Published 09/07/24

    The whole academy visited Yorkshire Wildlife Park and, despite the rain, enjoyed their trek around the park to find their favourite animals. The learners used their maps to navigate their journey around the different kingdoms and explore the wide variety of wildlife. Many of the animals were sheltering from the rain and low temperatures but our eagle-eyed learners were able to hunt them down. The play areas were a favourite with the juniors with many of them sliding down the twister slide in the Jungle Lookout Playground. What a roarsome day.

    The junior learners have been taking advantage of the weather this term by enjoying our local park. All learners have safely walked to the park using look, listen and cross on each road.

  • Excellent Teamwork in Juniors

    Published 09/07/24

    Our junior learners all visited Pink Pig Farm and showed excellent teamwork and respect. They walked around the animal enclosures, laughed at the dancing turkey and cooed at the adorable bunnies. They created an obstacle course in the hay bales, swinging from stack to stack with smiles and laughs all round. Annabelle and Bella helped one another on the cart track before the learners raced around the track on the pedal cars. All of the learners had a fabulous day and can’t wait for a return visit.

  • Inspiring excellence as we say goodbye to our Year 11’s

    Published 09/07/24

    Our Year 11’s this year chose to leave us with an air of sophistication. They asked to explore the high society pastime of horse-riding and afternoon tea. As always the Coritani Staff rose to the challenge and the Year 11’s went to Safe Equestrian, where they had an afternoon looking after horses. They learnt how to care for horses, they fed, brushed and tacked them up ready for riding. After this introduction to horse care /ownership they took to the saddle and rode off into the sunset on a great adventure. Well not quite, they had a ride around the town of Winterton and were back in time for tea.  Afternoon tea at Elsham hall county park.  The Year 11 students enjoyed sandwiches cakes and of course tea.

  • Ready for the appliance of science

    Published 09/07/24

    This year in Science we have been focusing on Practical activities that engage and spark curiosity in our learners. This particular experiment demonstrates a number of scientific principles in a spectacular manner. The reactions show what happens when a strong oxidising agent is in a powdered form is mixed which reacts rapidly with a blue liquid to create a large Exothermic redox reaction. This reaction starts slowly doing nothing for the first 20 seconds then into a white smoke eventually culminating in a rapid release of heat and bright purple flame.

  • Inspiring Excellence

    Published 09/07/24

    Once again our presentation afternoon at Glanford Park was a huge success this year.

    Our learners should be so proud of themselves as we recognised and celebrated their achievements.

    It was great to see so many families celebrating with us and enjoying the occasion.

    We always look forward to this annual event as it allows us to acknowledge the hard work of our learners and reflect on how much progress they have made.

    To be part of their journey is such a privilege and we wish all of our learners the best for their next chapter.

  • Ready to Read!

    Published 09/07/24

    Monday 3rd June was a very exciting day for our learners at Coritani, as it was the big reveal of our refurbished reading room also known as “The Cave.”

    During the day all the learners came for a peak and were immediately drawn to the beautiful ivy, entwined with bright fairy lights which lead them into the dimly lit cave! There were gasps of excitement and enthusiasm! The learners enjoyed delicately touching the ivy and lights and trying out the new seating, as well as looking at some of the books and getting into character using the soft toys.

    Learning takes place in all areas of the reading room including working at tables, on the wooden stools and making use of the array of soft blankets sitting on the floor of the cave. The learners really enjoy their time in the cave and find it a safe and comforting place.

  • Ready to Sew, Make and Bake

    Published 08/07/24

    KS2 learners had the opportunity to revisit their fantastic skills in art and design and make their very own apron for cookery lessons. They carefully marked out the pattern with a template and used the professional big scissors to cut out their material. Learners worked carefully and safely to use the electric sewing machine to stitch and hem their aprons. They all created their own individual ideas with fabric markers for the little pocket. Designs of names to aeroplanes were drawn before stitching these in place on the front of their aprons. Possibly we have a future designer maker in the academy!!
