The trip to the Freud Museum was a huge success! The students had a brilliant day and were given a insight into the work and influence of Freud and the application of this theories to the Psychodynamic approach.
Our Year 12’s went on a trip to Highgate cemetery to learn the contextual links they need for their coursework.
Year 7 French students went to sunny Boulogne-sur-Mer for the day where they learnt how to make bread and croissants. They also visited the old town and practised their French. Finally, they explored the local sandy beach where they fully enjoyed the glorious weather and warm water. Quelle belle journée!
On Tuesday 10th July, 14 primary schools from Enfield came to Chace to participate in the Big Bang Fair. The primary students have been working on science projects and presented their science projects to real life scientists who came to support the event. The scientists went around, looked at the projects, asked questions and listened to the science that the students have been learning and investigating. The projects covered everything from how to make dirty water clean, volcanoes, density of materials and how the shape of a boat can affect how quickly it sinks. The primary students had a question and answer session with the scientists where they learnt about the different paths into science and the many different jobs that you can do with science.
Chace Science department worked with Year 5 pupils at Capel Manor Primary School using different nutrient solutions to see which would grow the biggest plants!
Well done to the Chace studentsl who represented the Enfield Team at the Middlesex English Schools Champs 2018.
They all had a fantastic experience competing against all boroughs in Middlesex. All athletes were competing at a high standard and most pupils who represented the Enfield team were Chace students. Excellent attitude towards P.E. and Sport in general. Well Done!
Our GCSE students have enjoyed a delightful trip to The Royal Opera House to see a spectacular production of La Boheme. “We were joined by our very own Ms Ferracane to make sure the translation was sound!“
On Thursday 15th March GCSE and A-Level Drama students went to the Vaudeville theatre to watch ‘Lady Windemere’s Fan’; an Oscar Wilde play directed by Kathy Burke and starring Jennifer Saunders. The trip was a huge success, giving students yet another wonderful opportunity to see live, professional theatre in the West End!
Some of our students in Year 9 were very lucky to visit the Cite des Sciences et de l’industrie in Paris during our half term break. The group of 40 students and accompanying staff saw many of the exhibits including the Solar Impulse 1 aircraft which flew across America in 2013 and the Geode located outside.
The group then made their way to Disneyland Paris where they experienced the effect of rollercoasters on the human body and learnt the science behind some of the attractions. These included the work done on gravity by Sir Isaac Newton.
The group really enjoyed themselves and were a credit to the whole school.
Year 10 students enjoyed a great day at St Peter’s College, Oxford. The day included research experience at the Pitt Rivers Museum, a tour of Oxford and an enlightening and inspiring talk by an Oxford music graduate. We also had lunch in the dining hall of the college to experience the communal living of university life.
