We have six winning students who have had their work published for the 'I Have a Dream' national competition!
Here are four of our six published poets (the others evaded the camera & were camera shy!).
Well done to Sophia G, Hannah H, Abigail S, Theo G and Mia F.
The Wordsmiths is in 204 with Mrs Passerini on a Thursday. Come along and get involved!
In recognition of World Book Day, we invite all students to wear an outfit of their favourite book character!
A reminder that this is not a non-uniform day and if students choose not to dress up they will be expected in full school uniform.
We look forward to seeing book characters!
Year 7 students were wonderful in Building Bridges this week. They demonstrated our value of respect to Year 7 students from Marsden Heights who visited Park. They were thoughtful in their discussions about different religious practices and cultures to their own. They discussed racial stereotypes, and asked questions about each other's religions, cultures and cuisines. They discussed the power of building positive relationships with people of different backgrounds, races and religions in order to create an integrated and peaceful society. They were amazing! Well done Year 7!

As part of National Apprenticeship Week, 25 Year 10 students took part in an engaging session with the Army. National Apprenticeship Week is a great opportunity to showcase the wide range of pathways available to young people, we were delighted to welcome the Army Logistics team into school to highlight the exciting apprenticeship and career opportunities within the Army.
Students learned about the different roles available, the skills they can develop, and the routes into employment through apprenticeships. They even had the chance to try on the uniform at the end of the session! It was an informative and inspiring presentation, and our students thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you to the team for taking the time to support our students during National Apprenticeship Week!

It’s National Apprenticeship Week, and we were delighted to welcome Lauren from the Apprenticeship Team at Nelson and Colne College into school. Lauren hosted a lunchtime drop-in session across all three lunches, giving students from every year group the opportunity to learn more about apprenticeships. She shared key information about the wide range of apprenticeship opportunities available at Nelson and Colne College, as well as explaining the application process and next steps. Students really enjoyed finding out more, and it was particularly encouraging to see so many of our Year 11 students keen to gather additional information as they start thinking about their future pathways. A big thank you to Lauren for supporting our students during National Apprenticeship Week!
