Weekly Update : 15th March 2023

Votes For Schools

With Young Carers Action Day coming up on 15th March, this week’s Votes For Schools lessons take a closer look at the role of young carers and the day-to-day responsibilities that are a reality for so many. As the theme for YCAD 2023 is “Make Time for Young Carers”




House Photography Competition

Our House Photography Competition is open to all students, staff and parents. The theme for this year’s competition is ‘Life’ and this can be interpreted in whatever way you feel appropriate.
