A Christian wedding ceremony

Students in 9ML re-created a Christian wedding ceremony on camera in their RE lesson with Mrs Conway. They were a little bit shy, but seemed to enjoy it in the end!

The full video will be uploaded soon!

A British take on Mendhi

Here are some more photographs of an event that happened on our launch day. These are pictures of student Mendhi designs - the students used the traditional Indian way of painting on to skin but gave it a British twist with their own designs.

Multicultural Britain Day at Hillcrest

A brilliant day was had by all on Friday, which was our launch day for the partnership between our 2 schools.

Students produced lots of fantastic work throughout the day- and there is so much we cannot possible upload it all at once! Please see some of the work below - and DPS should expect to also receive some through the post soon!

Students in ICT created new flags for the partnership, combining the British and Indian flags, but also the school logos.

Students in English drew stereotypical pictures, showing what other peoples' perceptions are of British people

Some students created cards celebrating the partnership.

In geography, students worked together to create a map of Great Britain with many landmarks marked upon it. They also made a fact sheet so that the students at DPS can learn all about Britain.

Some children created posters to celebrate the partnership.

In English, year 7 wrote letters to the students at DPS to tell them about themselves and ask questions. Let's hope we get some replies!

These are flag designs for the partnership.

In art students created their own British inspired mendhi designs to paint on their hands. The pictures of the finished painting will follow later!

In history students created timelines of British history so that students at DPS can learn all about the history of our country.

In MFL some students learnt a little bit of Gujarati, and worked at creating simple posters for classroom doors

Students in MFL created some basic English phrasebooks for the younger children at DPS to use.
