Key Stage 3 Enjoy a Behind-the-Scenes Visit to Amazon

Our Key Stage 3 students enjoyed a fantastic trip to Amazon MM2 in Bowburn, where they had the opportunity to explore one of the company's huge facilities and discover what goes on behind the scenes.

It was an exciting experience for everyone, with students getting to see the impressive robots in action and learn more about how technology plays a part in the day-to-day running of such a large operation.

Throughout the visit, our young people had the chance to chat with Amazon staff, ask questions and gain a better understanding of the different activities taking place within the facility. There was plenty of curiosity and enthusiasm as students took in everything around them.

We were also delighted to be joined by Will, Community Safety Coordinator from Durham Constabulary, who accompanied us on the visit.

Experiences like this are a wonderful opportunity for our students to take learning beyond the classroom, explore new environments and discover more about the world of work. They can also help build confidence, encourage curiosity and introduce young people to opportunities they may not have considered before.

A huge well done to all our Key Stage 3 students for their enthusiasm throughout the visit. We'd also like to say a big thank you to everyone at Amazon for welcoming us and providing such an enjoyable and memorable experience.

A brilliant day out for our students and another fantastic learning experience beyond the classroom!
