Our ‘Unique Minds’ IGNITE group recently had the opportunity to visit the Taylor Hill Animal Centre run by Kirklees College! The trip, run by Miss Tattersall and Mrs Thorpe, provided valuable hands-on experience and enhanced their classroom learning, where our students have studied the needs and capabilities of children with SEND, as well as how animals can play an integral role in therapy and emotional support! #Huddersfield #Grammar #School #SEND #Therapy #AnimalTherapy
Year 3 students stepped back in time for an unforgettable Greek-themed day today! 🏛️
They dressed as Ancient Greeks, tasted delicious Greek food and even wrote their names in Greek.
The day was full of hands-on fun, with students creating beautiful wreaths and competing in the exciting ‘Olympus’ games! 🏆💫
This was a fantastic way to learn about Greek culture and history while having a blast!

As part of Jigsaw: Healthy Me, our Early Years children have been learning about healthy bedtime routines 🛌
They have been looking at how sugar affects their teeth, as well as how to brush their teeth properly.
The children were very pleased with their new toothbrushes and toothpaste from school once they had completed the topic 🦷🪥

Year 10 students have recently enjoyed an interactive session with Yorkshire Businesswoman of the Year Deborah Ogden as part of their learning on Personal Brand.
Deborah is a Personal Brand and Impact expert, who has a wealth of experience working with organisations and individuals on developing and maximising their personal brand for success!
Students learned the importance of knowing their own personal brand, of knowing the impact they make on others and of being the best versions of themselves everyday, essential skills as they begin thinking about the next stage of their educational journey beyond HGS.
