Today some students from Canterbury Christ Church came in to deliver a creative writing workshop called 'Beginnings and Originality' to some of our Year 9 students. It was really useful in helping students to come up with interesting narratives and in developing their drafting skills. Students had lots of fun swapping ideas and subverting their reader's expectations. A special well done to Oliver and Sophia, whose work was particularly inventive.

Well done to Mia, Zoe, Clay and Hayden in Year 10 and the eight Year 12 students (including Devaryss, Jaimie, Beth and Maisy) who have been accepted to two of the University of Kent's very competitive 2019 Summer School programmes. These students went up against hundreds of other applicants from across the county to vie for their place, and were accepted as a result of their excellent and eloquent application statements. They will now have the chance to experience life as a university student for a week this summer in Canterbury - living in halls, attending classes in the subjects they are interested in and meeting current students and lecturers.

On Friday 3rd May, 48 students from the Ebbsfleet Academy travelled to the battlefields of Ypres, visiting the Passchendaele Museum, the Tyne Cot and Langemark cemeteries and the town of Ypres. The students demonstrated a great deal of respect for the places that they were visiting and their behaviour was exemplary, particularly during a short ceremony of reflection at Tyne Cot. The students asked many interesting and insightful questions and really enjoyed the visit. ������

Random Acts of Kindness: A member of the public contacted us today, to say she witnessed a young boy trying to get on a bus on Friday who did not have the correct money, so was refused. A student in Ebbsfleet uniform kindly stepped up and paid for the young boy's travel. We don't know who this student was, but would like to thank you, and hope you will let a member of staff know so we can recognise you for your maturity and generosity ��
