Success in the first badminton tournament of the year
Wednesday evening saw our Under 16 boys taking part in the Pendle District Singles Badminton Tournament. The weekly practice helped the lads to victories over Primet, Pendle Vale College and Fisher More students in the group stages.

Mr Jackson's Year 9 Physics group have been looking at Car Safety and rate of change of momentum for a car when it crashes. They have studied how crumple zones, air bags and seatbelts can reduce forces on passengers. Today, they designed a crumple zone for protect an egg if it is dropped from a height. Pictured is Mr Jackson showing how high the winning team dropped their egg, the winning egg design and the 'Dream Team'. Well done Year 9!
