We extend our warmest congratulations to the 79 students who successfully achieved their Bronze Duke of Edinburgh Award at last night’s presentation evening. Their dedication, perseverance, and sustained commitment throughout the programme are truly commendable.
We were pleased to welcome so many families and supporters who joined us to recognise and celebrate the hard work and accomplishments of our young people.
We would also like to express our sincere thanks to Mr. Wallace, DofE Manager, and his dedicated team of support staff, who volunteer their time to deliver and facilitate this invaluable programme. Their guidance, encouragement, and commitment play a vital role in enabling our students to thrive and succeed.
Congratulations to all involved on this outstanding achievement.
On Wednesday 12th December a number of Year 10 students were involved with BIMA Digital Day. The only digital initiative of its kind, Digital:Day is aimed at students studying GCSE Computer Science and BTEC Digital Information Technology and sees digital professionals head back to school for a day to inspire students and give them insight into a world of digital careers.
For the 5th year running we had a global agency called HedgeHog Labs join us in school. The students worked in small groups to create a digital solution for a well known brand, this year the challenges were provided by Aston Martin and Hello Fresh.
The day culminated in a ‘Dragons’ Den’ style presentation where two groups were crowned the winners. A huge well done to everyone who took part!
