Read MoreDuke of Edinburgh Bronze Award under way for Year 10...
Published 05/07/23We are so overwhelmingly proud of our Year 10 students who are this week completing their Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award Expedition. Many of them have already walked over 20 miles over 2 days around our beautiful local countryside. They have shown fantastic resilience walking in heavy rain and navigating their way around some tricky footpaths. They have collaborated well in their groups and have mastered tent assembly (and disassembly!) as well as cooking some (yummy) meals on gas stoves outside.
We hope they have a well-earned rest this evening, they thoroughly deserve it! We can't wait to support the rest of our Year 10 students through their expedition tomorrow and Friday and hope they have their raincoats and rucksacks ready for off! Stand by for more updates.

Read MoreYear 10 Football Champions
Published 25/06/23Congratulations to our Year 10 Football team who finished the season as the Year 10 Pendle Champions. Winning the league for the two consecutive seasons.
On Friday evening the team played in a play off against Primet after both teams finished the season unbeaten (4 wins and 1 draw).
The final that took place at Fisher More finished 1-0 to Park with a first half goal from captain Connor Smith.
In central defence both Josh Morley and Rhys Howard were strong against a talented Primet team. Lewis Wilkinson and James Galloway worked tirelessly at full back to support the team in both defence and attack.
The hard working midfield of Bartosz Jagiello, Harvie Gibbs, Joshua Sims and the impressive performance of Harry Smith ensured that Park dominated the game.
Centre forward Charlie Sims led from the front and continued to press and close down Primet and make it hard for them to pass the ball out. Charlie's pace in attack also gave Park the chance to break away and counter attack several times. But it was the match winner Connor Smith that made the difference with a low shot from the edge of the box in the first half.
In the later stages of the game talented goalkeeper Alex Byrne was alert to come off his line and deny the Primet threat.
