On the evening of Tuesday 3^rd November 2009 the Streetly School held a very successful Careers Fair for years 10, 11, 12 and 13 students. There were 30 exhibitors promoting an extremely wide and varied range of post 16 possibilities.

The high number of parents and students who attended was very pleasing and their comments, together with those of the exhibitors, have been most complimentary.  

Plans for the Careers Fair next year, on 3^rd November 2010, are already being formulated.

Our Year 11 certificate evening was a huge success and it was enjoyable to see our successful students return to collect them.

Photos taken during the event will be available at reception from Monday 16th November 2009.

During the October half term a group of 37 pupils visited the capital of France.

We stayed in a Chateau outside of the city and were treated to many fun evening activities. 

During our four days there, we scaled the Eiffel Tower, did a town trail in Montmatre, went on a stunning evening cruise down the Seine, had a fun day in Disney Land and much, much more!

The weather was beautiful and a good time was had by all!

Seven year 10 G&T pupils went to a 3 hour French Masterclass at Wolverhampton University on Monday 6^th July 2009.

The Speaker spoke mainly in French and students were expected to use solely French to respond, create and present. They produced an advertisement campaign and a menu for a new French restaurant in London. They worked in groups to develop teamwork skills. They then presented their launch to their peers helping further their French presentation skills. Students really enjoyed being out of school and got the taste of university life.

This is an International competition for 13 - 15 year olds. The final selection process ranked Ellie amongst the top swimmers on the squad.

We wish her all the luck in the world, go for it Ellie!

On Tuesday 5^th and Wednesday 6^th the whole of Year 9 were involved with a Dragon’s Den activity. The event, which was run in conjunction with Walsall Enterprise and Business Partnership, was based around pupils use their enterprise skills in a practical business setting. This is a feature of pupil development which is important to the long term success of young people in business; without an ability to think and act in a way which solves problems and thinks creatively, pupils will not end up landing those top jobs which we all crave!

The day involved many activities including quizzes, challenges and thinking about their future responsibilities. Pupils had to devise creative business products and brainstorm how they would get this product to market. However, for pupils to be able to prepare for the world of work they had to be put on the spot by presenting their ideas to guest judges in true Dragon’s Den style.

The ideas of our pupils were interesting to say the least. For just a few examples one group of pupils devised Fridges with a built in I-pod called the I-Phridge where as others devised the ideas of a design of glasses with an opportunity to accessorise. Worryingly Mr Ford seemed quite keen to trial the latter idea…

The pupils seemed to enjoy the day and showed great creativity and presenting skills, so maybe their futures do look bright!

The cheer leaders cheered, the basket balls bounced and the audience gave standing ovations at The Streetly School's production of "High School Musical." The three nights of performances were played to full capacity audiences who were very impressed by the professionalism of the production and the enthusiasm and talent of all the students involved. Drama teacher Miss N Chohan said ". 

I'm so proud of all the students who gave up so much time and the teamwork of staff and students in creating this fantastic show." Everyone left with a smile on their face and one question in their mind, "What's next?”

Congratulations to our Year 12/13 Football Team for reaching the last 16 of the English Schools Under 18 Cup Competition, they beat Prince Henrys 3-1.

The goals scored by Craig Wain (1) and Josh Bambury (2).

As part of our fundraising at The Streetly School this week 8AN have been thinking about how they can raise money for Christian Aid Week.  They have made posters to highlight to other students the good work carried out by Christian Aid. To raise money they are having a cake sale on Friday and a guess how many sweets are in the jar. Some of them have made ribbons and rosettes to sell during form time. 

Thes tudents are taking a Giant Teddy Bear to classes and asking students to guess its name.  The student who gets the correct answer will win a box of heroes.

A BIG thank you to all the staff and students that made this years sports day one of the best ever.

To view our gallery of pictures from this fantastic day, click here.

We are eagerly anticipating our sports day on Thursday the 5th of June.

This will be held at the famous Alexander Stadium in Birmingham.

All of our years from 7 right up to 10 will be competing in this yearly event to win titles and break school records.

Events will include the 100m, 400m, 1500m, the long jump, javelin and much much more!

Good luck to all of our participants!

Sisters Naomi (Year 10) and Ellie Holder (Year 7) have brought National Swimming Success to Streetly Sports College.

The girls represented the school at the recent English Schools Team Synchronised Swimming Championships. This prestigious event was held on the weekend of April 26^th 2008 at the Europa Pools in Birkenhead.

After a gruelling and highly competitive event the girls were awarded the Bronze medal in the Duets Event.

This is the first time the school has had National recognition in this swimming discipline, but with the girls already part of the National Development Squad it is hoped it will not be the last time.

Well done to both girls.

Some of our delighted students received well deserved awards from Chairman of the Governing body Cllr Eddie Hughes at the recent KS4 presentation evening on the 30th of April.

These awards are for exceptional effort and work throughout the year. If you would like to see some of the pictures from this fantastic evening please click here.

Year 9 have been working long and hard over the last couple of days to create their own take on the traditional wigwam.

Well - what's a wigwam?

A wigwam or wickiup is a domed single-room dwelling used by certain Native American tribes. The term wickiup is generally used to label these kinds of dwellings in American Southwest and West. Wigwam is usually applied to these structures in the American Northeast.

Our pupils made these six foot high sculptures using purely recycled materials. The two day event was aimed to raise awareness of visual art and green issues combined.

Also joining us on our green mission was Aldridge and Shire Oak School. There is also talk of our students using their work as part of their GCSE work next year. Good luck to them!

Oh, and did we mention Sarah Arrowsmith was featured (and pictured) in the Express & Star? Dig out the 14th of April edition if you can!
