Today, Kite Class attended their first of 6 Farm visits. During the next 6 weeks, Kite Class will work with Farmer Jamie to learn about what it takes to keep a farm running, how to look after the different types of animals and things to look it for to ensure the animal welfare standards are being met. Today, Kite Class met the animals, collected and tested the quality of eggs, tested the quality of the soil and began to look at the 5 Animal Welfare Needs for each of the animals. Pupils enjoyed their visit and got stuck into all of the jobs! We can't wait for next week!

Some of our Year 11 and Post 16 pupils had the chance to go and explore the different roles and companies of our local fishing industry. They had the chance to learn more about Grimsby's history of fishing heritage, the history around the companies and talk to employees about their careers. Pupils throughly enjoyed their visit and have said they would love to work in the industry. They asked lots of excellent questions and were enthusiastic throughout the morning. A huge thank you to all of the companies who hosted such an informative day and to Jo Woodhouse, at Made Great in Grimsby, for organising such a brilliant morning. #madegreatingrimsby
