This half term, our Year 10, 12 and 13 DT students had the fantastic opportunity to visit Pegasus Profiles in Thetford. The company kindly organised the trip, giving students a valuable behind-the-scenes look at how a job progresses from initial concept right through to manufacture. During the visit, students gained insight into the use of advanced equipment such as laser cutters, water jets, and flame cutters, used to produce metal parts for industries including agriculture and signage. It was particularly interesting to learn about the crucial role designers play within the business and how their ideas are brought to life through precision engineering. A huge thank you to Pegasus Profiles for hosting us—we look forward to working together again in the future! 🙌

Keep it up, Team TGS!

Year 3, 4 and 5 had a brilliant trip to the Time and Tide Museum in Great Yarmouth! After being transported back in time by a mysterious pocket watch, the children stepped into the shoes of first-class passengers, practising their promenading and learning how to set a dinner table correctly. They then became history detectives, rummaging through suitcases packed with clues to work out who the mysterious cases belonged to and what their stories might have been. To finish the adventure, the children decoded a Morse code message and discovered the shocking news that the Titanic was sinking! 🚢 A fantastic day full of history, mystery and discovery.

🚀📚 Library Adventures for Years 1 & 2! 📚🚀 Our wonderful pupils in Years 1 and 2 had a fantastic time during their monthly visit to the library! This time, they explored the wonders of space, learning all about planets and the solar system — and even designing their very own imaginative planets. 🌍✨ After enjoying a super space-themed story together, the children proudly used their library cards to choose books to borrow and take home. We love seeing their excitement for reading grow with every visit! We’re already counting down to our next trip! Thank you Thetford Library 🌟📖 #LoveReading #LibraryVisit #FutureAstronauts

Nothing to see here! Just snippets of our Years 1 and 2 counting from 1 to 70! We're so immensely proud of the progress they are making in French. Bravo, les enfants!
