Their ideas were creative, to say the least and ranged from politically challenging to down-right mad! (Mushroom World!) Each group presented their new world and explained its philosophy: a hefty dose of fantasy and foodstuffs made an appearance but so did worlds based on systems of fairness and equality. One challenging idea proposed a world where all aspects of life would be specifically affected by the attitudes the inhabitants took with them to this ‘brave new world’. The girls judged each proposed new world and awarded the highest accolade to this very island. The results of their labours were captured on camera by Mr Gornall.

However, when reaching the top of the candle a heat sensor triggers Carbon Dioxide to be expelled through the same hole as the Natural Gas. The two gases will not mix due to the fact Carbon Dioxide is "heavier" than air, and Natural Gas is "lighter" than air. This results in the flame being extinguished and the solution is ready to begin its cycle again.

  • Shining Lights Newsletter April 2017 Celebrating Success
    Shining Lights Newsletter April 2017 Celebrating success Although it’s only been 8 weeks since our last Shining Lights newsletter there is SO much to celebrate this term. From charity fundraising to individual and team excellence we hope you enjoy reading all about the activities and events that took place during the Spring Term. GCSE Results Officially Top Class Earlier this month, The Department for Education confirmed how superb our results were last year in the published School Performance Tables. We knew they were good at the time but looking at the table opposite only serves to remind us how great they truly were. Progress 8 is the new measure for secondary schools and our result of +0.23 simply means that on average our pupils got a quarter of their GCSEs grades higher in each subject compared to all other pupils nationally. A great achievement! Teacher of the Year 2017 - Mrs Hall, we love you! A huge congratulations to Mrs Hall on becoming Teacher of the Year 2017. The award, presented by Rock FM, celebrates heroes from across Lancashire who have been honoured for their courage, selflessness and charity endeavours. This year’s award ceremony for the annual Rock FM Cash 4 Kids Time to Shine awards took place at the Blackpool Tower Ballroom. We are extremely proud of Mrs Hall and want to celebrate and thank her for all that she does in and out of school. She is truly amazing! Journey to Sanctuary Exhibition During the first week of Lent we hosted the 'Journey to Sanctuary' exhibition in school.
