  • Park Family, Park Runners!

    Published 05/11/23

    Some of our Park Family regularly attend Burnley Junior Parkrun held at Towneley Park every Sunday at 9am. The run is a free, timed 2km course where anyone aged 4-14 years can run, jog or walk for fun. To attend, all you need is to register with parkrun to get a barcode which can be printed or shown on a mobile phone at the end. 

    Over 14, fear not, regular free adult parkrun events are held at Holt House, Colne and Towneley Park on Saturdays and are a 5km course. All parkrun events are for fun, fitness and enjoyment and not a race. Everyone is welcome.

    For further information, see the parkrun website or see Mrs Carson.

  • Last nights Year 11 Success Fayre

    Published 19/10/23

    It was fantastic to see so many parents and students at last nights Year 11 Success Fayre.

    The evening started with a presentation from Mrs Eulert and Mr Allen outlining the key dates for the year and the countdown to the Summer Examination 2024.

    All students collected a 'goody bag' of chocolate, important dates, mock exam timetable, how to access exam boards information and revision resources including pads, pens and highlighters to help during mock examination preparation. 

    As part of the Fayre parents and students circulated the room to collect summary specifications and revision packs from each subject area.

    Also during the evening, there was an opportunity to talk to Nelson and Colne College, Burnley College and Training 2000.

    This morning, all parents have been emailed the presentation, instructions for ordering Revision Guides and the important dates document.
