The Academy is hosting a community café event on Wednesday 1st of December from 3:15-4:15pm. We are welcoming members of the community to come for some refreshments, take part in student led activities and have a chat. Some of our students are putting on stalls with different activities and there will be performances by our GCSE dance students. This event is the first community café the Academy has hosted in the past two years, so we would love to see as many members of the community as we can! Family and friends are also welcome.

Christmas Neo natal project
Christmas this year was different for all and at TSLA we wanted to help support our local community with a bit of ‘Christmas’ spirit!
We worked alongside The Health Tree Foundation – a charity for the Scunthorpe Hospital. Every Christmas they collect items donated to 'gift' the parents and babies in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICCU). However due to COVID parents are not allowed out once they are in the ward so it may be hard to get snacks, toiletries etc.
This was a whole school effort and in particular our Y9 enrichment groups who were the ‘organisers’ to help fundraise encouraging students and staff to donate items.
The Year 9 Media, Archbishop of York and Duke of Edinburgh enrichment students created a variety of videos, presentations and posters that were used to promote the event at school , to contact local supermarkets for donations as well as creating lovely cards and messages of hope that were included in the packages sent to the hospital.
Please see some of the posters created and messages of hope as well as the ladies from the HTF who came to collect the packages.
Well done all we really did show the TSLA Christmas spirit!
