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.
We were extremely lucky to have M&M Productions visit us on Tuesday to perform ‘Treasure Island’.
It was full of swashbuckling fun and we loved every minute! Thank you to our amazing FOMS (Friends Of Mountjoy School) who funded this experience for the whole school.

What lays beneath?
As part of Science Day Chestnut Class and Rowan Class buried some organic and non-organic items the day before we broke up for Easter. On our return we dug up our buried ‘treasure’ to see what had happened. We had buried an apple core, some leaves, a plastic bottle and a polystyrene egg. Over Easter the leaves had disintegrated; the apple was still there but you could see bugs on it, eating it. However, the plastic bottle and polystyrene egg were both fully intact with no sign of deterioration. We had learnt that plastic litter can take decades and decades to degrade – making it really important to recycle plastic so that it can be re-used rather than destroying the environment and being a danger to all sorts of wildlife.
Amazing Swap Shop for Science day: Theme of sustainability , biodiversity and waste reduction, so Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. A big thank you to Parents, Carers and Students for a fantastic selection of toys, games, and clothes to swap in school.
