In July 2019, year 8 students worked with artists from Same Sky to produce artwork for the Create Festival. Students made their artwork based on Victotian innovation and technology such as stamps. Students’ work was proudly displayed all around the event. #tjwathrowbackthursday https://t.co/2nZoaQhxXJ

If you could grow up to be famous, what would you be famous for? Maybe it would be for writing a novel, maybe you will you be an investigative journalist or invent something to save the planet from global warming. We are sure we have some future superstars in our midst! #tjwa https://t.co/AmwpGFPz2c

Three more days! The Academy Foundations will be our fundamental ingredients for success; the things which matter to us the most. We start with "In all things we put our children first, everything we do is designed around their long term benefit". #TJWA https://t.co/NhWyBBFj5g
