30 students from Year 11 went go karting in Southampton as a reward for being the top 30 in the year group for attending revision sessions at lunch times/after school. 🙌They all had a great time - we had crashes, dodgy corners, head on collisions, handbrake turns, driving at a snail’s pace, the whole sherbang! 😅The staff at the venue were really impressed with them, especially their behaviour 👏🚗 🏆

The History department at AVA took a fantastic group of Year 9 students to visit Krakow in Poland this week. We visited sites of World War Two and the Holocaust - it was an experience which will stay with us all forever. We were very fortunate to have the opportunity to meet and speak with a Holocaust survivor, Kataryn, whose mother and aunt both escaped the Nazis in Poland during WW2. It was a privilege to hear her story and she had a huge impact on us all. Krakow is a beautiful medieval city which we had a tour of on our first day. Lots of students tried the famous local street food of Polish bagels! Delicious! 🇵🇱 Ms Butterworth and the staff team were privileged to take this trip and hope we have helped create memories which will last a lifetime.
