View PostRemembrance Sunday 2025 This year, we reflect on the theme "Service Not Self," which serves as a powerful reminder of the courage, sacrifice, and selflessness demonstrated by those who have served during times of war and peace. Across our academies, we embody the values of duty, compassion, and community. We honour those who have given so much and inspire our children and young people to live with purpose and kindness. Let us teach our students the importance of remembrance, not just to look back, but to build a kinder and more inclusive future. #RemembranceSunday #ServiceNotSelf #LestWeForget #GosforthGroup #GosforthAcademy

View PostGerman exchange sparks international friendships at Gosforth Academy Gosforth Academy is hosting 10 German pupils from the Elisabeth-von-Thadden Schule from Heidelberg this week. Students get to find out what life is like in a British family and school whilst also exploring our shared cultural heritage. From Roman times and medieval castles via the industrial revolution and two world wars, we are now forging new friendships across borders with the help of a taskmaster-style competition, ice creams and sand castles. Tynemouth Priory, Beamish, Durham and York are on the agenda as well as a goodbye party at Gosforth Academy. We are already looking forward to our return trip to Heidelberg in July 2026. #GosforthAcademy #CulturalExchange #UKGermanyFriendship #StudentExchange #gosforthgroup #CreatingFutures
