Year 11 students had a presentation today from Ellie and Poorva of NCS - The Challenge. This is an opportunity for Y11 students to join a programme of physical, lifeskills and community action during their long summer holidays after the end of the GCSE exams.

In the past our students have really enjoyed this opportunity to meet new physical and mental challenges, make new friends and practice cooking and budgeting while living away from home for two weeks. The programme can be viewed on the National Citizenship Service website, and the cost is a very reasonable £35.00 if students sign up in the next couple of weeks. Mrs Dean , who organised the event, is available to discuss it with parents until the end of this term.
