Points of Interest
CADBURY WORLD TRIP
Message from PWA;
46 Year 10 Business and Geography GCSE
students visited Cadbury world on Monday 18th
April.
Students attended a lesson about the history of
the company, how the chocolate is made, the
impact of increased consumption and
marketing techniques used.
We then toured the factory
looking at the production
lines and sampled some
fantastic chocolate along
the way.
Students experienced the
family brand and what it
stands for and saw how the
products and the company
over the last 100 years.
Charlotte said "It was so
interesting to find out that
Cadbury were the first
business to really put their
work first and give them
holiday pay and
healthcare."
We then visited the biggest
Cadbury chocolate shop in
the world and experience a
4D cinema.
Students were well behaved and this
was a fantastic day out.
BFET NEWSLETTER
The trust has published its latest
newsletter this week. There’s a lot
going on between all trust schools so
it’s definitely worth a read!
A copy has been issued to all CMA
staff and there’s even a copy up in
our Newsroom (Meeting Room 2).
Here’s a snippet from the CMA
article featured on page 2 …
THOUGHT OF THE DAY
At the start of every term LMO sends out a ‘Thought of the Day” for every school day at
CMA.
Some of the ‘Thought of the Days’ are shown below but from now on we will be featuring
our favourite each Friday.
The one we’ve picked this week is;
“For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness.”- Ralph
Waldo Emerson who was an American essayist, lecturer, and poet who led
the Transcendentalist movement of the mid-19th century.

DUKE OF EDINBURGH UPDATE
Message from HBA and MRO;
On the first Monday of the Easter break, Year
10 participants of the Duke of Edinburgh
Bronze Award went on their very first practise
expedition to Edale, Derbyshire. They braved
some very difficult weather and temperatures
and demonstrated some excellent team
working skills back at camp.
Well done everybody!
DM SPORTS FOUNDATION
During the Easter break Abraham Fobil, Year 7, took
part in the ‘60 Second Interview’ with Diane Modahl
Sports Foundation.
DM use local school facilities for their sports clubs, so that
they can reach young people where they already are.
Their aim is for students not to have to travel to a distant
sports club, or adapt to a different environment. They
work closely with teachers to break down any barriers,
and to show that sport is for everyone.
To read the full interview with Abraham please visit;

abraham-fobil or check @CedarMountHigh link on
Twitter to find

CAREERS YEAR 8 TRIP
Message from VSC;
On Friday 1st April 45 of our Year 8 students got the
opportunity to visit Connell College and sample a
day in the life of a college student.
Our students took part in lectures and activities
around their aspirations and future plans for both
education and employment. They were given a full tour
of the college and took part in both college level lessons
and workshops, in which they all excelled.
Students were fully engaged throughout the day and
feedback from college staff was exceptional.
Well done Year 8
for your superb
representation of
Cedar Mount
students!
SPELLING BEE COMPETITION
Message from HBA;
On Wednesday 20th
April, teams
representing each house in the
academy took part in Cedar Mount’s
first ever ‘Spelling Bee’ competition. It
was really lovely to see such excited
supporters from across the academy
and each of the teams put their all
into the competition. The winning house was
Martin Luther King.
However, massive congratulations are in
order for Einstein who, despite only having
three team members, managed to come a
very close second! The individual prize was
awarded to Sonia Utulu from M.L.K who
demonstrated her spelling prowess
throughout the competition, rarely
making a single mistake. A great-
big thank you must also be given to
Sahara in Year 7 who saved the
day in assisting with the
adjudication of the competition.
Prizes and certificates will be
awarded in assemblies over the
next week.
Congratulations to all involved!
MANCHESTER UNITED
LMO and RAL took 14 students from Year 7-10 to Old Trafford on Wednesday night.
Manchester United beat Crystal Palace 2-0. The students had a brilliant time and were very well
behaved.
