Year 7 students have written Christmas cards that will be delivered to staff and patients on Christmas Day and have also donated a range of knitted blankets, hats, scarves and gloves to the children's ward at the hospital.
The Grotton Knit and Natter group along with residents at Violet Hill Court Retirement Complex, also contributed to the knitted items that were donated.
Members of the Academy choir also visited their neighbours at Violet Hill Court Retirement Complex to perform carols and deliver mince pies to residents.
The carol concert was a great success and was thoroughly enjoyed by residents and students.
They're now looking forward to continuing a partnership with North Care Charity in the New Year and resuming 'student community ambassadors' weekly visits to Violet Hill Court.
Mr Wilson, Assistant Principal for Personal Development commented; " We are extremely proud of our students for their continued commitment to supporting our local community through a wide range of events and intiatives."
"On behalf of our students and staff, I would like to thank our parents, carers and community partners for their genroisty and support with the Academy's range of community initiatives.
"We look forward to working collaboratively with them all in the new year."
