Some more photos from today's Sports Day... What a fantastic way to cap off the school year – a brilliant opportunity for students to celebrate their achievements, enjoy some friendly competition, and make lasting memories with their friends outside of the classroom. We would like to wish all our families a wonderful and safe summer break. We look forward to welcoming everyone back, into our fantastic new school in September. 🏅🌞

Dear Parents/Guardians, I am writing to inform you about an incident that occurred in the community yesterday after school hours. We were made aware of this incident and have been working closely with local police and businesses to identify the students involved. Through our investigations, which included reviewing CCTV footage, we have identified a number of students who were involved, not only those directly participating in the incident but also those who were captured filming or encouraging it. Please be assured that we have issued serious sanctions to all students identified as being involved. We want to make it unequivocally clear that such behavior will not be tolerated within our school community. We will continue to take a firm stance on these matters moving forward to ensure the safety and well-being of all our students. Thank you for your continued support. Hannah Carter

We’re delighted to announce the results of our 2025 Year 7 Orchards Spelling Bee. After some fierce classroom heats, 12 finalists did battle on the big stage with Scarlett and Harry the last two standing. After a brilliant semantic tussle it was Scarlett who emerged victorious 🌟 pic.twitter.com/1uoReSPej3— Orchards Academy (@orchards_tkat) July 16, 2025

An incredible day for our Year 7s last week who took part in a friendly fixture at Bobby More School. They have amazing facilities, and it was truly special to see the smiles on our students' faces when they spotted the Olympic Stadium. pic.twitter.com/xcpjSXMfSN— Orchards Academy (@orchards_tkat) June 30, 2025
