Year 7 and 8 Netball results from Monday 28th and Tuesday 29th March.

I am so, so proud of our students who have significantly improved their attendance recently.  They have shown resilience, determination and a super mature attitude to their education.  In celebration of their success I was delighted to invite them to share breakfast with the boss.  We chatted over croissants, fresh orange juice, fruit and a brew.  What a perfect way to start the day.  Congratulations to them all.

On Wednesday 16th of March, our Pendle schools indoor athletics winners for years 7 & 8 participated in the county final in Blackpool. This was a fantastic opportunity for our pupils, and they certainly made Park proud! 

All three teams worked hard to compete in the following indoor athletics events:

In the field  - Shot put, Speed bounce, long jump, triple jump and vertical jump. 

On the track - Obstacle course, 2 lap, 4 lap, 6 lap, 8 lap paarlauf and the 4 lap relay. 

Results:

Year 7 Girls - 12th 

Year 7 Boys - 14th

Year 8 girls - 12th

An amazing result for each of the teams, 12th, 12th and 14th in Lancashire! 

A very tired team after participating in different athletic events for 4 hours!

Year 11 victorious in Burnley FC tournament

On Tuesday 22nd March Year 11 students took part in a 'Mock Results Day'. This gave students an opportunity to experience similar feelings to those in the summer when they receive their final GCSE results. Mock Exams are tough and the reason we have Mock Exams is to highlight what we know and where we need to focus for these last few months. The day started with an assembly from Mr Allen before students collected results. A very positive day and an excellent opportunity for students to reflect.
