Earlier on Friday we were visited by local MP and the government’s Chief Whip Sir Alan Campbell, who took part in a ‘Question Time’ style lecture with Year 9 students who have been doing work in English around social equality. He discussed his role in politics and the economy, and answered questions that Year 9 had prepared about local government and social issues.
On Tuesday this week, Year 9 and Year 10 Music and Drama students took part in an all-day workshop with the English Touring Opera company, exploring the genre and narrative of Bellini’s Il Capuleti ei Montecchi (The Capulets and The Montagues).
They explored composition, created an alternative ending and worked together to perform the overture and finale with industry professionals, then on Wednesday evening were lucky enough to visit the Gala Theatre in Durham to watch the opera in full. It was a special and enriching experience enjoyed by all!

The sun came out today, so what else could we do but go caving…?
Ah…this is more like it!
Some stunning views!
6 members of staff accompanied 46 Year 11 students on the annual Marden high School ski trip to Austria last week. The trip was a huge success and massively enjoyed by all. Blue skies to snowy powder days gave everyone the real experience of the Austrian Alps. We saw some superb skiing and lots of progress throughout the week, along with questionable 10 pin bowling technique and general knowledge quiz responses!
All of the students did themselves and the school proud, they were a pleasure to be away with and we hope they get the chance to ski again soon!
A massive thank you to the staff that went of the trip, the generous offering their time to allows a trip like this to run. Keep your eyes peeled for information regarding a potential 2026 trip for next year’s Year 11.
Some more photographic updates!
