A huge congratulations to Queens House, who have been crowned House Shield Winners for this year!

Across the year, Queens have shown outstanding commitment, teamwork and house spirit, consistently performing strongly across a wide range of competitions and events. From academics to sport, the arts to house challenges, their determination and enthusiasm have truly paid off.

"Being a House Captain has been a very rewarding experience and I would recommend to any Year 12 student"

Well done to every student and staff member in Queens House for contributing to this fantastic achievement, a brilliant team effort from start to finish!

A big thank you as well to all houses for their energy and competition throughout the year. We can’t wait to see it all go again next year!

A huge congratulations to Miguel in Year 7, who achieved an excellent 3rd place finish in his age category at the North East Cross Country Mountain Bike Series last Friday.

Cross-country mountain biking is a demanding sport, with riders tackling challenging hills and mountainous terrain for around 20 minutes, requiring endurance, skill and determination. To finish on the podium is a fantastic achievement!

Miguel has been competing with Shibden Cycling Club through British Cycling events for several years and has already collected an impressive number of medals along the way.

We are incredibly proud of Miguel's dedication and success and look forward to hearing about many more achievements in the future. Well done, Miguel!

A huge well done to the talented young performers from Northern Arts Youth Drama Group in their performance on Saturday as part of Northern Arts The Brave & Bold Showcase on Saturday.

What makes their achievement even more impressive is that they created and rehearsed their entire performance in just three hours before taking to the stage. The creativity, confidence and teamwork on display were truly remarkable!

We are incredibly proud of all the young people involved and the dedication they showed throughout the day. 

If your child would like to experience the fun and confidence-building opportunities that theatre can offer, FREE taster sessions are available at Northern Arts Factory theatre schools.

A huge well done to our Year 12 Gold Duke of Edinburgh students, who spent four days in the Lake District over half term completing their expedition.

Carrying everything they needed to survive, students trekked for up to eight hours a day through some challenging terrain and did so during a heatwave, making the expedition an even greater test of endurance, resilience and teamwork.

The determination, independence and positive attitude shown throughout the expedition were truly impressive, and everyone involved should be incredibly proud of what they achieved.

An amazing effort from all our Gold DofE participants, congratulations
