Students have been taking part in careers sessions about the food industry this morning.

This weekend, 25 of our Year 9 students completed their expedition for their Duke of Edinburgh’s Bronze Award. Thankfully, the weather was much better than their practice expedition! The students walked around 16 miles with heavy backpacks over the two days, and camped in temperatures down to 5°C Saturday night with very few complaints. They really were a credit to the school, so please congratulate the students involved.
