This morning, Crew Spencer and Crew Dufton rolled up their sleeves and took part in a litter-picking session as part of their stewardship responsibilities. The activity not only demonstrated their commitment to caring for their local environment but also contributes towards their Duke of Edinburgh (DofE) Award.

Working together as a team, the students showed great effort and enthusiasm, taking pride in making a visible difference in the area. Stewardship is a core part of our values, and this morning’s activity highlighted the positive impact our Crews can have when they work together for a shared goal.

Well done to everyone involved—this is a fantastic example of leadership, teamwork, and community spirit in action!

Huge well done to all students in Crew Rosa Parkes for their excellent POL. It has been another great term full of lots of praises and fantastic attendance. Keep up the great work, you continue to make crew proud.

Monday and Thursday – Cheerleading practice 3.30-4.30 All other extra curricular will return after Christmas. Thank you for another amazing half term of fixtures. Have a love Christmas. Team PE.

Yesterday, Crew White held a bake sale to raise funds for their chosen charity, The Eve Merton Trust. Alongside a delicious selection of baked goods like brownies, cookies, and flapjacks, we also sold hot chocolates topped with cream and marshmallows, which were a big hit!

Thanks to the hard work of Crew members and the generosity of everyone who came along, we raised nearly £200 for the charity.

A big thank you to everyone who baked, bought treats, or enjoyed a hot chocolate. Crew White is proud to support The Eve Merton Trust and its amazing work.
