A huge thank you to our school community who raised £2736.55 for the Teenage Cancer Trust this year.
What an incredible collective effort from our school – well done and thank you everyone who contributed 😊

The BBC has revealed its list of 100 inspiring and influential women from around the world for 2023, and we are so proud to announce, that Leanne Cullen-Unsworth, a former student of our school, is one of the 100.
Lest we forget
This week, Harry one of our Senior Student Leaders has been selling poppies in the foyer. Today he brought some fascinating memorabilia from his Great Grandad’s time serving in WW2. He gathered quite the crowd as our students explored the collection.
Thank you Harry for sharing
