Museum Takeover Day

Ash SNAPS visit

As part of an Ash Careers lesson, we took a visit to SNAPs in Bridport, Shoe Lane to see their Toys, Games and Collectibles shop. One of our students caught an interview with Tim using questions we’d planned in class. Tim shared how we can turn our passions and special interests into work when we’re older. Students then selected some interesting products from around the shop to explore and examine and some even completed transactions. We finished with a masterclass in painting miniatures. Thanks Tim and Jamie for inviting us into your lovely shop for our Careers lesson.

Mascarade Prom 2025

Mascarade Prom 2025

Our current KS4 and Post 16 enjoyed their Mascarade themed Prom last week.  Students arrived in a range of vehicles including, a motorbike, Range Rover and a Ford Mustang.  All students partied the night away to a disco and enjoyed buffet and refreshments.  This is able to happen because Friends of Mountjoy were able to make a donation to largely pay for the event. Thank you to all the staff for everything they did.

Ash Class Bridport visit

Ash class treated themselves to an end of term Breakfast treat in Wetherspoon’s, Bridport.  They all ordered their own meals independently, some also caught the local public bus into town. They then walked around the town seeing the new elephant display and finished with a trip to the Library.  A great finish to the term.
