Year 10

Welcome back Year 10’s.

We would like to congratulate all year 10’s on their R.S results.

Whilst we are still drifting in the summer memories, the Year 10’s have an incredibly important year ahead of them.  This is their most important year so far.  This is the Year 10’s first year of GCSE’s.  Students at Wren are starting to feel the pressure in the first few days, I wonder what will they feel when the real test begins as the exams start? Not only are the students anxious, but the teachers have similar worries… The Teachers will have to teach like they’ve never taught before to make sure their students get the results they deserve… The tension rises and the race begins -  students, it’s all up to you now.  Best of luck!


As we complete our first week at Wren, we wait for what Wren has to offer next.  Year 10 students have started all their preferences and they already have started preparation for the big exams.



Focus Day

Monday 19th September was the first Focus Day this year and the Year 10's focused on Personal Finance.  We did five different lessons .

One of the lessons was the Fortunity Game which is about exploring different stages of life and how finance is connected with it which made us get points, money and brain power.

We played Beat the Bookie which meant we had to use our instincts and the best odds to try and make money.

Make it with the Band was a video in which we had to make sure we chose the right option for the band.

We all learnt about how and why and when finance can help us in life. 


The first Focus Day for Year 10 was a success.

Hi Bloggers, I enjoyed the year 10 Focus Day too! Just to remind you that the point of 'Beat the Bookie' was to make you aware that gambling isn't a good idea - glad you had fun though!
