Read MorePathway 1 Key Stage 4 Whipsnade Zoo Trip
Published 23/04/26We had a really lovely day at Whipsnade Zoo. The pupils were very excited and enjoyed seeing all the animals, especially the giraffes, elephants and lions.
It was great to see them using what we have been learning in Science. Some pupils were able to name animal groups like mammals and reptiles, and talk about what animals eat. They also spoke about what animals need to survive, such as food, water and shelter.
We are really proud of the pupils. It was a long day, but they tried their best, stayed calm and kept going. Many pupils also did well using their words to communicate what they needed.
Pupil voice:
- “I like giraffes because they eat leaves.” Isa
- “Lions are carnivores… they eat… ME!”
Rupinder
- “This is in the fish group because it has scales and fins and it lives in water.” Mohamed
- “Mrs Majidi, the elephant is eating leaves… it is a carnivore!” Daniel
- “Tigers have hair, they are mammals.” Naeem
- “Penguins are my favourite animal. They have feathers and a beak, they are birds. Mrs Majidi why are they very smelly?” Jack
- “I love the zoo” Kayden
Thank you to all staff for your support on the trip. It was a great day for everyone.

Thursday 30th April 1.40pm - 2.40pm
You will be able to meet with other parents and also choose from the fantastic books on offer. We have made sure that there will be a wider selection of picture books this time. As previously, payment can be made via card, using a QR code we will provide at the fair.
If you would like to join us for one of the sessions, please complete the slip in the letter sent home and return as soon as possible. If you would like to collect your child at the end of the session please ensure you tick the relevant box. Please note that there is no on-site parking - if there is a particular need, please contact your child’s form tutor.

Read MoreFantastic Football Tournament
Published 16/04/26Fantastic Football Tournament
I would like to take a moment to recognise the students who took part in the football fixture during the last week of last term. They demonstrated excellent behaviour throughout, showing resilience, sportsmanship, and a strong sense of fair play. They followed the rules of the game consistently, handled incidents maturely, and ensured the experience was fair and enjoyable for all.
In addition, their commitment to learning and developing their skills was outstanding. The effort they put into the tournament was clear, and they showed great determination when facing challenges and adversity.
As a group, these students embodied the values we promote at Meadow, particularly within PE and team games: fair play, respect, kindness, teamwork, and sportsmanship. It was fantastic to see these values reflected so clearly in their performance and conduct.
I would like to highlight a few individual contributions:
- Dylan demonstrated excellent leadership as captain.
- Charlie showed great resilience and was nominated Player of the Match by the team.
- Elissa displayed strong defensive skills, consistently stopping attacks and creating scoring opportunities.
- Colby and Harrison worked exceptionally well together, showing teamwork and resolving challenges effectively during gameplay.
- Ty showed excellent motivation, even when facing setbacks.
- Kaniz demonstrated strong communication and encouragement throughout the game.
It was an excellent fixture and a great way to round off the term !
Well done everyone !Mr McAlernon

Published 26/03/26On Tuesday 24th March, class GW visited BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir, popularly known as the ‘Neasden Temple.
We were given a tour when we arrived and commented on the beautiful craftsmanship of the buildings.
Afterwards, we all went to the shop next door to buy some Indian vegetarian snacks and devoured them.
The children loved every minute of the trip and wanted to go back again another time.
They were exemplary and a credit to Meadow High School.
