Well done to everyone who got involved in the career poster competition - 'Create a poster of your dream job!'. Every entry was creative, and our career ambassadors found it very difficult to pick a winner! Well done to Elizabeth in year 8, who won the poster competition!

This week we took a cohort of ten Year 7 students to Nelson & Colne College for the first Pendle MEGA Technology Day.
Competing against four other local high schools in a variety of tasks based around computing and technology all the students really did us all proud. This day involved competitions with the other schools and information about careers in Cybersecurity, Programming and eSports.
In the final robotics programming task the team of Heidi Robinson and Mia Wimbles triumphed with the most efficient and speediest spherio programme which set the record not only on the day but nationally so far! Well done to all who took part.
Year 7 have been slicing and breading chicken. Putting into practice their knowledge of cross-contamination and the danger zone. This skill starts them on the road to being able to make a variety of dishes; from schnitzel, katsu, kyiv, Milanese to scotch eggs. One pupil brought in some tortilla wraps to make a cheaper and healthier version of the fast-food chicken wrap from down the road.
