  • Year 10 RS group visited the United Synagogue, Sheffield

    Published 12/06/26

    On Tuesday 9th June the Year 10 RS group visited the United Synagogue, Sheffield for a tour by Rabbi Yonosan Golomb. We were told the story of Moses whilst the special 'Sheffield Steel Burning Bush' was lit – the steel having been directly donated to the Synagogue. We then moved through to a room with a wall built entirely from stone imported from Jerusalem. On this wall was a map showing how Jews from all over the world make up the Sheffield Synagogue congregation. We then got to visit the Synagogue itself, being shown where the men and women sit in separate areas. The Rabbi talked us through some of his beliefs about Creation before showing us the key features - The Bimah, (a raised stand with a reading desk), The 10 Commandments in Hebrew, the Ner Tamid (everlasting light) and the Ark. (Cupboard for the Torah Scrolls.) Annabelle opened the Ark for us, and we were able to see the real Torah Scrolls together with their decorations. We took many photos, and Oscar and Jack even managed to get the Rabbi to pose with them!

  • Y9 DRAX Trips​​​​​​​

    Published 15/05/26

    Fantastic visits to Drax this week - May 12, 13 & 14

    Students recently enjoyed an exciting and educational visit to Drax Group, where they learnt how electricity is generated using biomass energy.

    The days began with interactive sessions in the Visitor Centre before students explored the power generation process — from sustainable wood pellets sourced in the USA to the production of steam at 560°C, helping generate enough electricity to power around 1.2 million homes.

    Students toured key areas of the site, including the huge turbine hall, control room, biomass domes and cooling towers. They also learnt about the many careers involved in operating the power station, including engineering, chemistry, logistics and finance.

    After lunch, students took part in a team engineering challenge to design and build paper planes, testing both their creativity and teamwork skills.

    The visit was an inspiring opportunity for students to develop their understanding of renewable energy and the careers linked to the energy industry.
