A wonderful act of kindness from our Y9 students A huge thank you to three of our amazing Year 9 students – Laura, Isabella and Ellie, who kindly gave their time today to help Mr Mitchell create beautiful orange butterflies These butterflies will form part of a special installation at Newcastle City Library, designed to welcome refugees to our city. The colour orange is widely recognised as a symbol of support for refugees, and we're proud to contribute to this powerful display alongside other schools across the city. Each butterfly carries a message of welcome or a drawing, many written in different languages – a meaningful reminder of our commitment to being an inclusive, compassionate, and supportive community. We hope this collective artwork will send a strong and heartfelt message: you are welcome here. #CommunitySpirit #KindnessMatters #Inclusion #Compassion #ProudSchool #MakingADifference #NewcastleTogether #TyneAndWear #StrongerTogether

We couldn't be prouder of our students. Your GCSE exams are well underway, and we are truly inspired by the positivity, determination and commitment you are showing every day. Your resilience reflects exactly what it means to be part of our Trust – a community that supports one another and strives to achieve their very best. Remember, all the hard work you've put in and continue to put in will pay off. But exams are not just about results. Your mental health and wellbeing matter just as much. Taking time to rest, staying balanced, and reaching out for support when you need it are all part of success too. We are proud of you, we are behind you, and we believe in you every step of the way. Keep going – you've got this. #CreatingFutures #GosforthGroup #GCSEs #ProudSchoolMoment #wellbeingmatters #gosforthacademy

Happy May Day! As we welcome May, we're reminded of growth, renewal and looking ahead to the future. For our students, this is an especially important time as exam season approaches. Across our Trust and academies, we're encouraging everyone to look after their health and wellbeing – getting enough rest, eating well, staying active and taking moments to pause and breathe. Small, positive habits now can make a big difference, helping young people feel confident, resilient and ready to achieve their best. Exams are just one step on a much bigger journey. By supporting healthy minds and bodies today, we're helping to create strong, successful futures for tomorrow. Wishing our whole community a positive and motivating May Day. #MayDay #WellbeingMatters #HealthyMinds #ExamSeason #CreatingFutures #StudentSuccess #GrowingTogether #TrustCommunity #gosforthgroup #gosforthacademy

The Sign of True Champions True champions aren't defined by never falling but by how they respond. And our Year 10 football team showed exactly what that means in the City Cup Final After an earlier narrow defeat to Wallbottle ended a long unbeaten run, the stage was set for a dramatic rematch. Under pressure, after an unexpected detour, the boys showed resilience, unity and belief. The result? A dominant 7–3 City Cup Final victory, rediscovering the scoring form that's seen them net 67 goals in just 12 games this season An incredible response. An unforgettable performance. A team to be proud of.

These two superstars have won this year's Gosforth Academy Kindness Award. The award started last year and gives Gosforth Academy staff and students the chance to nominate students who have performed an act of kindness, however small, in school or their local community. Bruce D and Oliver M, both in Year 9, recently helped a member of the public who collapsed in the street in Gosforth by making sure they were comfortable, reassured, and that an ambulance was called. The voting panel selected these two students because of the bravery and community spirit they both showed. They displayed our school values and are an absolute credit to our community! #gosforthgroup #gosforthacademy #creatingfutures #communitykindness #InspirationalStudents #proudschool
