# Welcome back to the English department, Year 10

We have been delighted to welcome our Year 10 cohort into their new bubble area which includes the English department.

The librarians have already been hard at work in their old stomping ground after almost 15 months and the bookworms are back in their little fold in my room!

Today I took my class, 10EW1, all still avid readers, into the sensory garden for 20 minutes quiet reading. I was so proud. It's so great to have my wonderful group back in my classroom and see such a promising group of students warm to the space again. Welcome Year 11 class of 2022!

The whole cohort are already a pleasure to have in our department and are a credit to themselves and their Head of Year, English's very own, Mr Faulkner.

Here's some pics of them making themselves at home again...
