Sporting Success

The U13 boys athletics team put in a strong

performance at the Bury St Edmunds Leisure

Centre and finished third in the Western Area

Super 8’s competition, securing them a

qualification place in the county finals.

In the finals, the boys put in some exceptional

performances, which included wins for

Colby Poolton in the shot put and Dylan Kirk in

the 200m. Following some impressive work in

the other track and field events, and a quick time

in the medley relay, the boys finished in fourth

position out of the ten schools attending the

county finals.

Haydn Fox, Year 7 was asked to

talk about his experiences at

MCA with visitors from the ATT.

The following paragraph is how

he described his experiences.

MCA is a great place to learn because of all the work and support teachers

put into a single lesson; the fundamental help that guides pupils along their

way, the core values and simple energy of the teachers here contributing to

make this school the fantastic place to learn that it is. The ingenuity of just

one teacher that absorbs a pupil into a lesson makes such a difference to

our education. You see, as Benjamin Franklin once said “ Tell me and I’ll

forget. Show me and I may remember. Involve me and I will learn.”

Sports Day

Rocket Cars

Eight students have successfully taken part in

a rocket car challenge. The students had to

design and make a car that was powered by

a rocket motor to travel a short distance as

fast as possible. The cars designed by

Mildenhall College Academy students

achieved speeds of around 60mph.

Congratulations to James Dawson, Harvey

Pakahm, Ben Hobbs, Jack Harrington, Callum

Bourberry, Bobby Claydon, James Arnold and

Riley Palmer who all designed cars capable of

achieving the national speed limit.

Congratulations to James Humphries who helped

to develop the sports day app that was used to

give live results at this years sports day. The app

helped to deliver an extra competitive edge as the

students were able to see how close the results

were throughout the day. The app was also

designed to make any broken records visible to all

students. During the course of the day 21 records

were broken. In a very close run sports day

Newton House came out as winners clinching

victory in the last relays of the day.

Congratulations to James for his support in

developing the app, all of the record breakers and

all of the Newton competitors.
