Wow!
A group of our pupils had their passing out parade from their 3 day course with the Phoenix Project. What an incredible achievement, they have been an absolute credit to Restormel.
We are so proud of all of you and thank you to the brilliant staff at the Phoenix Project.

We were delighted to welcome Paralympian, David Hill, to Restormel last week to support the official opening of our new outside space.
David then ran an activity with pupils, ‘Capture the Flag’ on our new MUGA. There was tactic, healthy competition and skill on fine display for all.

A wet but wonderful Forest School session today. We are so lucky to have use of our fantastic woods.
Pupils built shelter from the rain, made a fire and enjoyed s’mores, explored the acres and were even met by some friendly horses on the way back to school.

Today pupils from KS3 & KS4 visited Cornwall Islamic Centre. They were introduced to the Muslim Community Leader who spent time showing the pupils around the prayer hall and explaining the foundations of the Islamic religion. Pupils asked some valuable questions and were so grateful for the trip.

Thank you to Cornish Tea & Coffee who met with year 11 pupils today as one of our employer encounters.
Pupils heard all about the mastery of coffee making and then were able to experience making their own drinks using the wonderful coffee machine that was transported in.
