🧑‍🔬 Last week pupils had a very busy Biology Week with lots of practical activities taking place across the school! 🧬 Year 7 made their own onion cell slides and jelly cell models, while Year 8 built DNA models. Year 9 investigated which antiseptics were most effective against bacteria, and Year 11 put their ecology skills to the test using quadrats to sample plant species. Pupils also enjoyed dissecting owl pellets to explore food chains. 🧫 Years 9, 10 and 11 took part in a Biology Spelling Bee. Congratulations to our winners: Jake in Year 9, Ted in Year 10 and Dylan in Year 11. 📷 More photos on Facebook! #RedHouseSchool #BiologyWeek #ClassroomActivities #AnEducationEnjoyed

❤️ Thank You, Red House Families! ❤️ 🍞 A huge thank you to all our families who generously donated to our Billingham & Stockton Borough Foodbank collection. Today, we handed over a van packed full of food to support those in our local community. 💬 Following last week’s thought-provoking assembly with Helen Winspear and Bernard Liversidge, we learnt more about the incredible work they do and how vital support from places like Red House is. 🤝 The assembly was a powerful reminder of how fortunate we are and how important it is to look out for others. 🥰 Thank you once again to everyone who donated and helped make today’s collection such a success. #RedHouseSchool

⭐ Beyond the Classroom: Spanish Club ⭐ 🗣️ A place where pupils can develop their language skills and build confidence in an enjoyable and supportive environment.

💛 What a busy Hello Yellow Day for YoungMinds! ☀️ Our Junior School pupils enjoyed a fantastic day celebrating kindness and wellbeing organised by our pupil council. There were lots of different activity stations to explore including: a kindness postbox, a kindness challenge, a lemonade and biscuit stall, a colouring station, music for dancing and a reading corner. Pupils also visited a special station to create their own yellow sunbeam, sharing what makes them happy. These will be displayed in our Zen Den! Finally there was a very special visit from Charlie, our wonderful wellbeing dog! 🌼 In Senior School, pupils took part in lots of mindfulness activities during lessons and tutor time, encouraging everyone to pause, reflect and consider simple ways to look after their mental health and wellbeing. ✨ A huge thank you to everyone who took part and helped make the day so special! All money raised will be donated to YoungMinds, supporting the charity’s vital work to ensure young people can access advice and support whenever they need it. #RedHouseSchool #MentalHealth #Wellbeing #AnEducationEnjoyed
