Our final Boost Your Grade session is tomorrow. Please book via the website for a place. Thank you to all our Year 11 students who have attended previous sessions.

We are pleased to say that our lovely Magnolia tree and fish pond have survived the demolition of the old school buildings that surrounded it and will now proudly stand at the centre of our new courtyard once it is built.

Well done Jack W Year in 7 for passing his water safety skills Gold level! This is a fantastic achievement- keep up the good work!

Last week our Year 13 students went on study leave. We wish them all the very best for their futures wherever and whatever that may be. You are all amazing and we will miss you.

During our Art extra curricular club students were given a brief to create a mask that shows an animal side of them. They sketched a design on paper, made them with papier-mâché and finally they were painted. Pictured are Sophie and Lexi with their masks. Great job!

It's week 1 of the school timetable this week.

Preparations are well under way for our older persons Jubilee themed afternoon tea. We look forward to welcoming you if you are attending later.

Today we said farewell to our Year 11 students as they start their study leave. We wish them luck for the rest of their exams and wherever the future takes them.

Our House Captains continued the Jubilee theme by organising a cake sale to raise money for this year's chosen charity of Cancer Research UK. They made and bought cakes to sell to raise money for the charity.
