  • Ruskin Marks Holocaust Memorial Day

    Published 28/01/20

    On Monday 27th January staff and students at Ruskin joined people around the world to mark Holocaust Memorial Day, with the entire academy community coming together in our school corridors to hold a minute of silence. In recent weeks the academy has worked in conjunction with the Holocaust Educational Trust to ensure students really understand the significance of the day, what we are remembering and why it is so important to learn from it. This has been done by sharing powerful individual stories from the Holocaust – seeing the faces and hearing about the lives of some of the men, women and children who perished in the Nazi death camps.

  • Guide Dogs Charity Visits Ruskin

    Published 16/09/19

    On Monday 16th September Ruskin welcomed Bryan and Barclay to the Academy to highlight to students the work our fundraising for the Guide Dogs supports. Bryan lost his sight when he was 11 years old but it was not until he was in his 40s that he got his first guide dog. The dogs he has had have transformed his life – making him feel safer, enabling him to get out and about and providing wonderful companionship. Barclay is 6. He demonstrated his exceptional training and calm, intelligent and thoughtful nature throughout talks and demonstrations but don’t be fooled… Bryan informed us that when Barclay’s lead is off and he knows he’s ‘off duty’ he’s apparently quite loopy!
