Yesterday we held our excellent annual Sports Day, organised by the P.E. department. However, this year, as the event was taking place in the school grounds, we also organised fun activities for all the pupils from years 8 to 11 to take part in and enjoy and it was absolutely great fun. The sun was shining, the BBQ was delicious and there was ice cream for everyone!
Congratulations to Travis Surgeoner who has won Third Prize in Category B in the Charles Causley Trust Young Person Poetry Competition 2023!

This year's winning entries will be launched on Wednesday via the trust's website - causleytrust.org however, we have it here for you all to enjoy. 'My Memories of Burnside.' by Travis Surgeoner.
Year 10 have been studying speed as part of their course and today in Science, Mrs Baker's Year 10 class competed in her annual 'Matchbox Derby'. Year 10 had the chance to design their match boxes before racing them in knock out competition.
