It’s that time of the week again, where we come together to celebrate and express our gratitude for the incredible individuals who make our school community so special. The nominations for Week 2 of Thankful Thursday have poured in, and we are thrilled to highlight some remarkable pupils who truly embody the spirit of Chase Terrace Academy.

Lucy and Libby, Year 11:

These two exceptional pupils have shown immense kindness and compassion by selflessly assisting a fellow pupil in need, without hesitation. Their actions exemplify the close-knit school community we have here at CTA, where pupils genuinely care for one another.

Connie, Year 8:

Connie has been nominated for her outstanding dedication as a Year 8 runner. Her hard work not only helps keep our school running smoothly but also reflects her commitment to our shared values. We also wanted to take this time to celebrate Connie, who was scouted to play for Wolves Football Club and has played for them for six years!

Mrs L Finch, Academy Progress Lead met with Connie (pictured) this morning and said: “I had the absolute pleasure of meeting with Connie today for our Thankful Thursday, and I must say, it was an incredibly inspiring conversation! Connie shared with me her remarkable journey as a student-athlete here at CTA. Her tenacity and commitment to both her academics and her athletic pursuits are truly commendable.”

Erin, Year 11:

Ms N Mason, Headteacher, nominated Erin who recently applied for a KPMG work experience placement. Despite not securing a place, Erin overcame her reservations about the application process, she was very well prepared and demonstrated resilience throughout her interview.

Caris, Year 9:

Nominated for her exceptional reading skills and being a champion reader! But that’s not all – Caris is also working on writing her very own book. Her ambition and dedication is clear and she is an inspiration to us all.

Let’s continue to celebrate and appreciate these outstanding pupils who make CTA such a special place. We look forward to hearing more stories of gratitude and kindness in the weeks to come.
