    • Our cricket nets are coming back!

      Published 24/06/25

      Thanks to the wonderful support of our Alumni David and James, with the sponsorship of local business the Big 6 and support of the Crossley & Porter Foundation, our students will soon be hitting big sixes as our cricket nets return to the lower Arena.

      The aerial view of the Arena still shows the outline where the nets once stood after students themselves installed them in 1910 and where they stood for decades. The best of Crossley Heath heritage is coming back with an October installation date.

      Thank you to our ex-students who are still championing the school they love and demonstrating our value of kindness.

    • Yorkshire Champions

      Published 23/06/25

      A huge congratulations to Sebby and Matty, who were selected to represent the Huddersfield Taverners U15s in the prestigious Yorkshire Junior Cricket Festival.

      With 16 leagues from across the county taking part, Huddersfield had to overcome some of the strongest teams in the region, including Upper Airedale, Aire Wharfe, Heavy Woollen, and York, to reach the final.

      They didn’t just make it… they made history, remaining unbeaten throughout and winning the final in style with a comprehensive 200-run victory over Barnsley to lift the U15s Lord’s Taverners Trophy! 🏆🔥

      We’re incredibly proud of Sebby and Matty for their outstanding achievement and for representing the school and their league with such talent and determination. Well done, lads! 👏

    • Standing With Refugees

      Published 23/06/25

      This week we visited St Augustine’s, our partner charity, to help celebrate the strength and resilience of refugees and people seeking sanctuary right here in Calderdale.

      We were honoured to meet volunteers and centre members who are united in one powerful mission: to support families arriving in Calderdale as they begin new lives after fleeing war, persecution and hardship.

      A heartfelt thank you to our Head Students Lakshya, Anaya and William, who joined the visit to learn more so they can lead assemblies next year on the incredible impact St Augustine’s makes. Also a huge well done to Hana, who will soon be joining our Sixth Form and is already leading by example through her volunteering.

      This visit was a reminder of the kindness, compassion, and community spirit that lies at the heart of Crossley Heath. 💛

    • Berlin Trip

      Published 20/06/25

      Day 2 began with a fascinating visit to the DDR Museum, which was particularly relevant for our Sixth Formers studying post-war Germany, but thoroughly enjoyed by all. We then took a walk around the stunning Museum Island, passing the Berliner Dom, Humboldt University, and Bebelplatz, the poignant site of the Nazi book burnings. The afternoon brought sunshine and relaxation with a scenic boat trip along the Spree, and we ended the day with breathtaking panoramic views of Berlin from the Fernsehturm (TV Tower).

      Day 3 was another long but brilliant day in sunny Berlin! We started with a morning of sightseeing, taking in the iconic Brandenburg Gate, Checkpoint Charlie, and the moving Holocaust Memorial. After a well-earned lunch break with some fun and games in the Tiergarten, the group headed to the German Spy Museum, where the interactive exhibits were a big hit. The day continued with some shopping and dinner at the Berlin Mall, and we rounded it all off with a spectacular evening visit to the Reichstag dome, offering another stunning view of this vibrant city.
