Extended Learning Week is finally
here. Many months of planning and
preparation behind the scenes have now come to fruition. I hope everyone is enjoying their activities
and that you are keeping up with what is happening with our daily blog.
At the same time as Extended
Learning Week, Year 12 students are enjoying a week of work experience. The students themselves have chosen where
they would like to work, with some scattered all over the country. I hope they value the experience.
On
Friday last week, Mr Seymour and Mrs Acaster accompanied six Year 12 students (Sam
Jeffrey, Matthew Piper, Ella Collie, Charlie Luxton, Will Terry and Allen
Wesson) to compete in the BASE 2017 National Final in Birmingham. I am pleased to report that they performed
fantastically in the various tasks and came overall runners up, finishing
second to the North London Collegiate School.
In addition, Allen Wesson won an individual award for the Best
Individual Performance across the day. Well done to the team, they
bring back a trophy as well as essential employability skills training.
