Year 13 student Leah is trying to raise awareness and support for Motor Neurone Disease (MND).
On February 16th 2024, Leah is jumping out of a plane and sky diving to raise some much-needed funds for the MND Association.
She has already raised and amazing £1000!

Pyjama Fundraiser Day 2023 – Sixth Form
Yesterday marked the first day of fundraising for this years chosen Sixth Form charity – Motor Neurone Disease Association; the charity was voted in by the Sixth Formers earlier this year.
The Sixth Formers and staff dressed in their pyjamas and spent their lunchtime watching The Polar Express and drinking hot chocolate.
Each tutor group submitted a photograph to enter an inter form contest to be the best dressed.
The support was amazing with most tutor groups having almost every student in their pyjamas.
They raised just over £100 to kick off their fundraising.
Wellbeing Ambassadors – Introduction
Our new Wellbeing Ambassadors are now actively supporting our students throughout the academy.
The team is made up of Y13 students who have completed and passed specific training which allows them to work across the whole school.
They are trained to offer advice and practical strategies which builds resilience and confidence for students.
They are a valuable asset to our already proactive wellbeing approach in school.
Students can identify them by their yellow lanyards and they are able to approach them if they have any issues, they are happy to help.
Children In Need 2023 – Bake Sale
Sixth-Form students organised a Bake Sale for Children in Need 2023.
Once again there was an amazing selection of cakes on sale and not a crumb left by the end of morning break.
Thank you to all staff and students who baked or donated cakes for this event.
A special mention for Luke, one of our Year 7 roving Ambassadors for his amazing Pudsey Bear cake – it was delicious.
A total of £278.19 has been raised for Children in Need from the bake sale fundraiser!
