18 MarOn Tuesday we welcomed Alan from Positively You back to Acle to work with our Year 8s on a goalsSetting programme. They all spent two hours off-timetable working with him on a variety of different tasks focusing on how to develop personal responsibility, plotting a route to success and learning how to be goal-oriented. They all engaged really well with this and it was a joy to watch them grappling with key study skills which will benefit them as they progress through their time at Acle Academy. #acleacademy #wearepositivelyyou

13 MarInternational Women's Day - Biggest Ever Football Session On 8th March, we took part in the 'Biggest Ever Football Session' for International Women's Day which involved running football tournaments in all girls' PE lessons. England Football confirmed that 'a record breaking 465,000 girls from 5,000 schools across England' were due to 'take part in the FA and Barclays' third session as part of the Let Girls Play campaign', so we were delighted to contribute towards this! We had so much fun and hopefully this will encourage more girls to join our football club on Thursdays after school. #acleacademy #internationalwomensday_global #LetGirlsPlay
