Published Young Writers

Chace Library recently entered students into various writing competitions. Our Librarian has set up workshops to help students with poems as well as short stories that are based on chosen human rights issues. We are proud of the following students as their work has now been published nationwide.

We look forward to entering our aspiring writers into new competitions and events.

Body Worlds

During my trip at the Body Worlds Museum, it educated me about the inner workings and mechanisms of the human body and showed me a variety of effects the daily lifestyle choices and risk factors have on our health and nutrition. There was a range of areas of the museum that displayed the different body systems such as the digestive system, the respiratory system, the reproductive system, the cardiovascular system, the locomotive system and the nervous system. In addition to all of that, is showcased how they preserved human bodies using the process of plastination which was also amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed my trip to body worlds and would recommend it anyone to who is intrigued about the human body.

Sheep Dissection

This week our unsqueamish Year 12 Biology students dissected a sheep head. During the A level Biology course students learn about role of the nervous system in relation to homoeostasis, this hands on experience allowed them to identify key anatomical structures.

Superzone Planning!

Superzones are an area of 400m radius around secondary schools in which action is taken to protect young people’s health and encourage healthy behaviours through targeted intervention. Chace have been chosen to be a pilot school for this initiative.

The student council welcomed Ailbhe and Marghe from the Enfield Public Health department and Mr. Bruton, the Headteacher for a working lunch this week to discuss this issue. The student council shared their priorities and gave valuable feedback about ways in which the initiative could be implemented.

The Book Bus!

The top deck of a purple bus was transformed into a mobile showroom stocking over 1000 books. Year 7’s had the opportunity to visit the bus and were able to place an order for the books they wanted to purchase. It was a fun day that sparked conversations around re-creating and modernising a culture of reading. Thank you to all the Year 7’s for their perfect behaviour and the staff from Browns books for Students who travelled such a long way to be with us!

Ben Kinsella Trust

At the end of the summer term, the student council arranged for a non-uniform day. The money was donated to the Ben Kinsella Trust. We raised £636. The money raised has allowed the trust to provide three more anti-knife workshops which will educate 90 more young people about the dangers of carrying a knife.

The next non-uniform day will be at the end of this term and the student council will be asking the student body which charity we should support next.
