It is the staff and students that make our school a success and I am pleased to share that we are still on track for the school to be performing above the national average again this year. The attitude of our young people to learning is impressive and I am proud of how students have been working to support each other during this busy period, as a vibrant learning community.

  • Groundwater in Jurassic Carbonates
    Groundwater in Jurassic carbonates Field Excursion to the Lincolnshire Limestone: Karst development, source protection and landscape history 25 June 2015 Tim Atkinson (University College London) with contributions from Andrew Farrant (British Geological Survey) Introduction 1 The Lincolnshire Limestone is an important regional aquifer. Pumping stations at Bourne and other locations along the eastern edge of the Fens supply water to a large population in South Lincolnshire. Karst permeability development and rapid groundwater flow raise issues of groundwater source protection, one of themes of this excursion. A second theme concerns the influence of landscape development on the present hydrogeology. Glacial erosion during the Middle Pleistocene re-oriented river patterns and changed the aquifer’s boundary conditions. Some elements of the modern groundwater flow pattern may be controlled by karstic permeability inherited from pre-glacial conditions, whereas other flow directions are a response to the aquifer’s current boundary conditions. Extremely high permeability is an important feature in part of the confined zone of the present-day aquifer and the processes that may have produced this are a third theme of the excursion. The sites to be visited will demonstrate the rapid groundwater flow paths that have been proved by water tracing, whereas the topography and landscape history will be illustrated by views during a circular tour from the aquifer outcrop to the edge of the Fenland basin and back. Quarry exposures will be used to show the karstification of the limestone, both at outcrop and beneath a cover of mudrock. Geology and Topography The Middle Jurassic Lincolnshire Limestone attains 30 m thickness in the area between Colsterworth and Bourne and dips very gently eastwards.

  • Part in the Gunpowder Plot Which He Had Joined with the Sole Purpose of Restoring the Roman Catholic Religion in England
    Tales of Bourne 1: Victorian philanthropy saved the Abbey Church Interior of the Abbey Church prior to the 1890 restoration aintenance of the fabric hangs like a millstone around the neck of those who run Mour parish churches. There is always work to be done to keep the buildings in good order but never sufficient funds to foot the bills yet they survive for although God may be the inspiration, it is the public that provides. The Abbey Church is the town’s only Grade I listed building but is in constant need of attention and records since it was built by Baldwin Fitzgilbert in 1138 reveal an ongoing body of work over the centuries with sporadic periods of major restoration when the masonry was beginning to show its age but by the 19th century, serious work was needed to ensure its survival. The Victorian era therefore became a period of tremendous activity in the upkeep of the building and one of the main benefactors was Robert Mason Mills (1819-1904), founder of the town’s aerated water business that brought world fame and royal approval to this market town. In 1870 for instance, he was the principal supporter of an appeal for £1,200 which was raised by public subscription to finance extensions to the north aisle that was widened to provide a vestry and organ chamber. The vicar, the Rev Joseph Dodsworth, laid a stone in the north wall and a bottle from the factory run by Mr Mills and containing a document referring to the current state of the town was deposited behind it as a reminder to future generations of the way things were.

  • Newsletter May 2020
    Issue 21 Newsletter May 2020 Alia is cycling 100 miles in May to raise money for The Lily Foundation Executive Headteacher’s Message Dear students; parents / carers and staff, As we continue in this period of extended lockdown, instead of the weekly update that I have become accustomed to issuing on a Friday afternoon, please have a good look through this bumper newsletter that shares many success from this academic year. I think this must be the biggest edition ever and I would like to thank everyone that has contributed and helped put this together. In these unusual times, it is good to be reminded of some of the Spalding Academy events and achievements since September and to remind students of the general buzz of life at School that we can hopefully get back to as soon as safely possible. I hope by sharing this issue of the newsletter it will help our students and our families feel more connected to the school, during this period of absence? There are far too many great aspects of this publication for me to pull out as being ‘highlights’ and share with you, so I will let you find your own favourite story, report or image. However, a few stand out articles that I know will prompt fond memories include the Geography Department’s Year 7 Fantastic Places homework project, which is always so popular. This year the models that students built were so complex and professional, they were all truly impressive. Also, since September the Art & DT department have yet again excelled in the creative area.
