Stratford College opened its doors on Sunday 6th September for a vibrant Open Day and welcomed prospective students and their families, and members of the community. The event started with presentations from the principal, Mr. Barrett, from Chief Rabbi Wieder, the Chair of the Board, and an inspiring student representative.
Then led by student guides, visitors toured the campus and got a taste of the school's curriculum by participating in hands-on experiments in the Science Lab, interactive activities in the Computer Lab, and expressing themselves with creative art in the Art Room, plus drama theatre and film studies in the English department.
Thank you to all our student guides for helping out. It was a fantastic afternoon filled with engaging conversations and we hope that our visitors who arrived asking a single question: why Stratford, left with a short answer: only Stratford.
The TY Horticulture class were out in the Autumn sunshine planting Spring bulbs using the chaos planting method. This is when a multitude of different spring bulbs (Hyacinths, Daffodils, Tulips, Crocuses, Narcissi) are mixed together and randomly planted so that we have a mixture of flowers and patterns emerging in the spring. It mimics nature and so is more enticing to pollinators and native insects that need the food in Spring.
