Students in Year 12 received their Vinspired certificates for 10, 30 and 50 hours of volunteering service within the school community. As part of the Churston Baccalaureate, students are required to give back to the school and volunteer at least 10 hours of volunteering. This can involve, aiding teachers in lessons, offering peer support, running clubs, attending events and tours within school. They have already completed over 1800 hours of volunteering since September. Well done year 12. #CFGS #churstongrammarschool #churstongrammar #CFGSawards #CFGSVinspired #CFGSsocialjustice #CFGScommunity #CFGSsocialvalues #CFGSsuccess #CFGSachievement #WeAreChurston

Our Year 9 students switched roles from pupils to teachers, hosting an energetic and highly successful Multi-Skills Festival for Reception pupils from Galmpton primary school. The event was designed to offer the year 9 students a chance to develop their leadership, communication, and organisational skills. From the moment the Galmpton students stepped off the bus, the atmosphere was one of high energy and focused activity. Well done to all our Y9 students who were involved in such a positive and rewarding day - it looks like the Galmpton students really enjoyed themselves. You did Churston proud and hopefully inspired a next generation of Churstonians! #CFGS #churstongrammar #churstongrammarschool #CFGSsuccess galmptonprimary #galmptonprimary #CFGScommunity #CFGSsocialvalues #CFGSvalues #CFGSsocialjustice #CFGSachievement #WeAreChurston

Year 8 students at Churston Ferrers have spent their term in Philosophy and Religious Studies delving into the intersection of faith and creativity for the prestigious international Spirited Arts competition. They first studied religious art from the Global East and West before embarking on an art project of their own. Tasked with responding to religious themes, all 160 students produced a piece of art that was submitted to teachers and our Sixth Form judge, Emory, to narrow down. To select the finalists, the school welcomed back Ellen McPetrie, an Old Churstonian and celebrated local artist, as a guest judge. Facing the difficult task of narrowing down a diverse and high-quality field, Ellen spent Tuesday evaluating the technical skill and spiritual depth of the submissions. After a rigorous selection process, five students have been chosen to represent the school on the international stage. Their work will now be sent off to compete against 3000 entries from across the globe. The standard of work was incredibly high. We were glad to have a former student like Ellen return to see the talent currently emerging from our Year 8s and to judge the project. Congratulations to the official finalists: Layla, Emily, Edison, Marley and Harrison.

To celebrate World Maths Day, Y7 investigated the possible number of platonic solids that could be made and why there are only 5 possible ones! They made their own platonic solid and used their models to find the connection between the number of faces, vertices and edges. This led them to discover Euler's formula F + V - E = 2. #CFGS #churstongrammar #churstongrammarschool #CFGSmaths #WorldMathsDay #WeAreChurston
