The Bourne Academy were delighted to welcome the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, who gave a performance and workshop to Year 7 and 8 students.
We are delighted to announce that The Bourne Academy has received funding of £1,000 from the Green Goals Partnership. The generous funding is to enable the Academy with After School Clubs promoting Healthy Living.
Two students from The Bourne Academy were selected following a day of dance in January, to be part of the opening ceremony at the Dorset School Games where schools from all over the county were represented.
A willing group of KS3 students were successfully challenged to a four mile sponsored walk last week around the school site. The walk was organised to raise money to build a teachers' house at the Academy's partner school - the Osiligi Obaya School in the Maasai, Kenya.
Cakes, biscuits and books were on the agenda in the Library, where the Mad Hatter was fundraising for the Academy's charity.
At The Bourne Academy, adventurous students are fortunate to learn about Outdoor Education and have a very successful outdoor education site with its own lake, assault course and copse area with fire pit. Students use the area to learn survival skills and include fire lighting with sticks and flint, building rafts, skinning rabbits, boning fish and usually end their lesson toasting marshmallows!
The 'Telling Tales Drama Festival' was created to showcase and celebrate the wealth of acting talent there is at the Academy. Throughout the week long festival, over 500 students watched one of four plays, selected to offer both an exciting challenge to actors but provide entertainment and 'food for thought'.
We are absolutely delighted to receive a donation of £2845 from Wave 105's Cash for Kids Scheme, supported by the local FJB Group. The award was received at a prestigious evening reception at the Harbour Heights in Poole, where each chosen charity gave a presentation about their intended project.
The Bourne Academy is very grateful to receive a generous donation of £500 from JP Morgan Chase and Co towards the purchase of a new Epson Interactive Overhead Projector for their new state-of-the-art Maths Suite.
Further evidence of the great collaborative working relationship with Canford, our Sponsor school, came about as senior Canford staff members and nine Year 12 students visited the Year 10 Leadership Academy to learn more about this very effective student body.
Fans of folk and rock music will be making their way to The Anvil, Bournemouth on 27 January at 7.30pm to see Piegeon Hole, a new young band with a fresh innovative sound.
