Former Pupil Visits Year 6
This week former Bomere Heath and Corbet School pupil Beth Trow visited Year 6 pupils to talk to them about her journey from sports day successes on our school field to the European U-18 Athletics Championships.
Following her representing Shrewsbury Athletic Club and Shropshire County, as well as West Bromwich Albion FC and Shrewsbury Town FC at football, Beth represented Team GB at the European U-18 Championships in Slovakia in July.
Beth gave a presentation about her athletics and football journeys, training, successes and future goals, as well as answering questions about her promising career. The Year 6 pupils asked some amazing questions! Beth really helped them understand the importance of determination, resilience and being self-reflective in order to improve.
We thank her for giving up time from her busy training schedule to come in to see us again – and we wish her all the best for her upcoming training and races!
Y5/6 STEM Day
On Tuesday, Y5/6 pupils enjoyed a STEM Day!
In the morning, students had the chance to get hands-on with STEM and unleash their creativity as they took part in an exciting activity – The Space Challenge. Working in teams, students designed, built and tested a rocket for launching a satellite into space.
Then in the afternoon, students took part in a really fun activity – The Sustainability of Aerospace – challenging students to design a sustainable aircraft of the future, before developing a poster to present their ideas.

Guinness World Record Attempt
Here are Stiperstones, Grinshill and Wrekin taking part in The World’s Largest Poetry Lesson with the hope of being part of a Guinness World Record.
A few weeks ago pupils shared their ideas with Laura Mucha, who has read every school’s entries before creating a draft poem. Today pupils got the chance to ‘Live Vote’ alongside thousands of other children on how the poem was written, choosing specific words and lines as well as the title.
The most amazing thing happened too: we suggested a line in the poem (“Sweets cost 1p back in the day!”) which was chosen by the tens of thousands of other children taking part to be in the final poem!
Mrs Quigley had to make sure our part in the event could be verified, by providing specific evidence for Guinness World Records.
We will send the final poem out in due course and update you with the result of the attempt.
