Yesterday, there were a mix of students from Year 8 and 9 receiving their bronze and silver cadet awards at the GirlsGetSet STEM graduation ceremony. They also found out the winner of their carbon footprint project where they were up against teams from North Durham Academy – and won! Two students also won the carbon capture poster competition and two were in the winning team for the oil challenge on the day. Well done and thanks to everyone involved!
Our Year 9 students enjoyed a great day on Saturday on their #DofE practice expedition. Next stop, BRONZE!
Congratulations to our house champions for 2024/25, Bamburgh – their very first title! Mr Richards announced the winner in assembly this morning after they finished the year with a stunning 390,012 points, beating off stiff competition from last year’s champions Warkworth, and former winners Alnwick, who finished third.
The overall house points are now reset to 0 for the new academic year, although individual house points (which can be redeemed for rewards later in the summer term) are currently still valid.
Congratulations to Bamburgh, and may the 2025/26 competition begin!
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!
Voting is open for the North Tyneside Young Mayor elections, and we have 2 candidates in the final 4! Watch the candidates discuss their campaigns here:

This morning, Year 9 students took part in a careers fair which took on a ‘Speed Dating’ theme, as they participated in carousel activities in which they had the opportunity to listen to talks from various employers, and ask them questions about career prospects.
Many thanks to all the employers who took their time to visit the school and talk to the students.
