The Apple Tart of Hope

By Sarah Moore Fitzgerald

The second sensational novel from Irish author, Sarah Moore Fitzgerald, The Apple Tart of Hope is a contemporary love story about loyalty and friendship and the power of never giving up hope. Oscar Dunleavy, who used to make the world's most perfect apple tarts, is missing, presumed dead. No-one seems too surprised, except for Meg, his best friend, and his little brother Stevie. Surrounded by grief and confusion, Meg and Stevie are determined to find out what happened to Oscar, and together they learn about loyalty and friendship and the power of never giving up hope.

Running Girl By

Simon Mason

Meet Garvie Smith. Highest IQ ever recorded at Marsh

Academy. Lowest ever grades. What's the point? Life

sucks. Nothing surprising ever happens. Until Chloe

Dow's body is pulled from a pond. His ex-girlfriend. DI

Singh is already on the case. Ambitious, uptight,

methodical - he's determined to solve the mystery - and

get promoted. He doesn't need any 'assistance' from

notorious slacker, Smith. Or does he?

Certain to grab the attention of teen fans of Sherlock and

other crime dramas, Running Girl is an impressive murder

mystery that will keep readers guessing right to its

stunning conclusion.

Shortlisted for Costa Children's Book Award 2015.

Spring Menu 2016

From Neil Beckley: Catering goes cashless: Following the recent successful upgrade to the fob system, no cash

will be accepted in the Dining Rooms from February 22nd after the half term holiday. Fobs can be topped up on-line or at the cash machines in the Dining Rooms (between 7.30am and 1.30pm). This will speed up the service at the tills and result in shorter queues at meal times. Cash will still be accepted in the Sixth form cafe.

Please contact [email protected] if on-line instructions or link codes are required. The office will be manned regularly during half term so they can be issued during the holiday.

Year 11 and Year 12

Exploring the NHS Taster

Week Oxford Health’s Exploring the NHS Taster Week provides you with the opportunity to learn

about many of the exciting careers that are open to you within the NHS and gives you an

insight into some of the less known professions.

During this week long programme there will be some classroom sessions as well as the

opportunity to shadow our staff in both clinical and non-clinical settings during their working

day.

The dates that we will be holding the taster weeks for this year are:

25th – 29th July 2016

22nd – 26th August 2016

This programme is open to students with an interest in pursuing a health career who are

currently in year 11 or 12. Our spaces are very limited and we will be selecting students

carefully to ensure we are giving this opportunity to the most dedicated future health

professionals.

If you would like further information or to register your interest in attending one of

these weeks please email [email protected]

For attention of Year 11, 12 and 13.
