You rose to the Challenge and raised £2538.48
Whether you bought headbands and wristbands, paid money to wear sporty clothes (or just non-uniform) or
paid for the hottest ticket in town…to the grudge match, pitching staff against the Post 16 basketball team,
you all helped to raise a fantastic amount of money. Well done and thank you! Mr Milburn not only had to
don a pink tutu ,as you raised over £200, he also had to endure waxing his extremely hairy legs as you raised
over £500! Not sure that’s something he’s ever going to want to suffer again.
Mr Milburn goes above and beyond for Sport Relief, the story so far…
No Pedestrians Can we remind you that the bottom entrance gates on Springs Lane are for vehicles only; there is a camera on the gate and therefore we know who you are!
Arabic club Last Thursday the Arabic Club organised its first open day, ‘An afternoon of Middle Eastern Experience’. Students were invited to taste Arabic delicacies, find out about Arab countries and engage in Arabic conversation. They had a fabulous time.
Adiós y buen viaje

Netball News Congratulations to our netballers who have been in action this week. On Monday the U12A team and the U14A team played at St Josephs’. Our U13B team were playing in the Netball Emerging League on Tuesday. The U13B reached the semi-finals but lost to Dixons’ Trinity A team. The U12B tried hard but didn't get through to semis although it was a great experience for them as they were playing with U13s.
