It was a special Wednesday this week at Marden, with students and staff all wearing wigs to raise money for CLIC SARGENT, a specialist charity supporting young people with cancer.
As well as a non-uniform day, there was a lunchtime quiz, won by Miss Soulsby’s team! Well done to all staff and students for raising money for this brilliant cause.
Wig Wednesday Quiz!
Marden High School will be hosting a Prayer Spaces In Schools event during
the week beginning, June 13th 2016
All students will be given the opportunity to use the space to slow down,
have time for reflection and be creative in thinking about themselves and
maybe some of the challenges they and others face.

VODA are currently recruiting for the last few places on their Summer NCS programme, which is an excellent opportunity for Y11 pupils to make extraordinary friendships, learn skills not taught in school and create unforgettable memories. It takes place outside of term time and last summer it allowed 152 young people to build their confidence and independence whilst spending two weeks away from home and delivering a project for their local community. The report on last summer’s activities is on the PDF below.

From Aztec temples and Pagan ruins to Stupas, Churches and Mosques, Year 7 have pulled out all of the stops with their Independent Study this week. We’ve had everything from buildings, cakes, models crafted on Minecraft, as well as beautifully presented written work and presentations. The RE department couldn’t be prouder!
