Celebrating VE Day - 80th Anniversary
Last week we celebrated the 80th anniversary of VE Day. The LRC was festooned with red, white and blue and students took part in a range of different activities to mark the occasion. We had a specially recorded Collective Worship with singing and narration from students (click link below to view), a poster-making competition, a quiz and a packed-out raffle event in aid of the charity Help For Heroes. We also updated our movement music between lessons to ‘In The Mood‘ by Glenn Miller which was reminiscent of the wartime era.

Closure due to snow - 19-11-24
Dear Parents / carers, Unfortunately we are having to close school today due to the weather conditions and the number of staff who are unable to travel in safely from more rural areas of Derbyshire and surrounding counties. We will be setting work on TEAMs and / or Classcharts for all students. Years 7, 8 and 9 will have English, Maths and Science work set. Years 10, 11, 12 and 13 will have individual work set for each lesson on TEAMs. More detailed information will be sent through to each year group. We apologise for the inconvenience but we have to ensure that all of our community can be kept safe. The forecast looks better for tomorrow and we anticipate that school will be open but will inform you if that changes. Many thanks, Mrs Brown
