Mollie was interviewed prior to Christmas, before hav- ing her place confirmed. “It all happened very quickly,” said Mollie. “Before I knew it, I’d had the in- terview and been told that I had a place. I’m really pleased,” she added. Mollie is joint captain of the successful U16 Netball team, which has recently qualified for the National Finals in Liverpool next month, and is chair of the Student Publicity Team. GREAT START TO 2015 FOR TOP ACHIEVERS It was an excellent start to the New Year for 13 Penryn College students in the latest Achievement Points Awards. The cohort of pupils were recognised for a great end to 2014, setting the tone for a great 2015. Students are awarded Achievement Points for anything from excellent classwork and homework, to excellent contributions in class, excellent behaviour or even helping others. The top performing students enjoyed refreshments provided by the college in the Inspiration Agency, before a formal certificate presentation and a chance for photos. There were several familiar faces at the ceremony and many more on the list from previous awards in the school year. Christopher Bettison narrowly missed out on retaining his crown for the most points (16), thanks to Eliza Benney and Logan Bernard who both notched an impressive 17 points. The full list of pupils can be seen below. Pictured is Evie Dickson .

Charlie (pictured), aged 12, received his award for showing exceptional bravery. The ceremony took place in front of an audi- ence of over 100 people at the Falmouth Hotel and Charlie said he enjoyed the experience despite it being a nervous one! “There were lots of people there, so it was a bit scary,” said Charlie. “I was told when I was invit- ed that we had to dress smartly for the evening, as it was quite a big deal. It was great to go up and collect the award and have my family there,” he added. PENRYN STATION MURAL ART PROJECT OPENS Penryn College students have been at the heart of helping design an eye catching town mural outside of Penryn Station. 20 year nine students, along with pupils in years four and five at Penryn Junior helped create the Mural, which was initially designed by University students. The design was initial- ly supposed to be 3D, but Mrs Stokes and Mr Ash pose for a picture with Mayor of Penryn Gill Grant next to the Mural Penryn college students helped to design planners eventually settled on and create a flat surface. The Mural is 40ft long and is a timeline featuring key moments and iconic build- ings from Penryn’s history, spanning the whole wall directly outside the town train station. Mayor of Penryn, Gill Grant, was delighted with the work the students had put in. “I am delighted that so many of the key moments and iconic buildings of Penryn’s history have been included,” she said. Arts Award Co-Ordinator Mrs Stokes was also very pleased. “The students have worked very hard on this and it looks great.” said Mrs Stokes. “It’s a constant reminder of the hard work they have put in, when they see it on the way to and from school everyday,” she added. 4 For more visit www.penryn-college.cornwall.sch.uk or follow @collegepenryn PENRYN COLLEGE NEWSLETTER FEBRUARY 2015 NETBALL CHAMPIONS QUALIFY FOR NATIONALS! Penryn College’s U16 Netball team have made history by becoming the school’s first ever team to qualify for the National Netball finals, held in Liverpool next month. The girls added the South West title to their County crown in Bournemouth and will look to make it a clean sweep on March 14th. There was another first as the U14 team had also qualified, meaning they joined their U16 school mates for the trip after qualifying as runners up from their county competition. The U14s competed well on the day, win- ning two of their group matches, but unfortunately didn’t make it through. It was a fine achievement by the girls to reach the finals and will have been a good experience for future competi- tions. It was a big day for the U16 team though, who have been crowned county champions on the last five occasions but had never progressed past this stage. They went into the tournament as one of the favourites and would have been eager to finally make it to the National finals. The girls played six matches in their group against Taunton School, Marlborough College, Clifton College, West Buckland and Dean Close, all of whom were beaten by the Penryn team, whilst they drew with Talbot Heath, meaning that they qualified for the knockout stages. Qualifying as group winners, the girls would face host school Bournemouth in the semi-finals. It was a tense affair and went to extra time, with the Penryn girls opponents roared on by the home crowd. Penryn held firm though and progressed to the final. The final promised to be a tough assignment against another much fancied team, in the shape of Millfield School. The girls though produced their best performance of the day to win 7-4 as they were crowned South West Champions and progressed to the National Finals. Coach on the day and teacher at Penryn College, Angie Walker, was delighted with the girls’ attitude and their dis- plays on the day. “It’s an amazing achievement from both team to make it here, so for one to win it, is fantastic for the school”, said Mrs Walker. “The girls positivity and incredible teamwork got them here and was a massive factor in getting them the win, as well as some excellent Netball being played”, she added. The team travel to Liverpool on Saturday March 14th to compete for the National title. The squad (as pictured): Left-right from back row Izzy Berks, Rea Richardson, Rosie Holliday, Isabel Classey, Clara Husbands, Lara Jones, Emily Coltman, Mhairi McLeod, Bryony Rule, Bronwyn Casterton, Bottom – Mollie Martin, Hope Lushington Cross Country Runners win again! Following success at the County Schools Cross Country at Truro School in January, four Penryn College pupils have qualified for the Cross Country Regional Schools finals. It was gruelling course, made worse by the tough conditions and close fought, with over 50 competitors in each race. Francis Ratcliffe won the Year 7 Girls race and Ed Mitchell finished 5 th in the Year 7 Boys race. Floyd Ratcliffe (Brother of Francis) finished 6 th in the Junior boys race and Amy Walker 8th in the Junior Girls race, with all four hav- ing now been invited to represent the County at the regional round in Wiltshire.

  • St Ives, Hayle & Cape Cornwall Schools
    ST IVES, HAYLE & CAPE CORNWALL SCHOOLS 22nd September 2020 Ref: JCW/hcb Dear Parents / Carers The Truro and Penwith secondary Schools (Hayle Academy, St Ives School and Cape Cornwall School) have now been re-open to all students for 3 weeks. The start of the Autumn Term is always extremely busy and we have been delighted to welcome our new Year 7 students to our school communities. To their credit, our students have adapted to the changes in school routines and our steps to minimise the risk of virus transmission with great maturity and our staff teams are very grateful for all the support we have received from our parents. Managing the schools and these new systems has inevitably taken up a lot of the time of our leadership teams and we have done our absolute best not to allow this to distract us from our key priorities: the education, care and welfare of our students. I very much hope that our students’ experience has been all about their learning, progress and support and that our classrooms have been, to a large extent, a ‘refuge’ from the daily media focus on the pandemic. Having said that, I am once again contacting our families to provide further information about the safe manage- ment of our schools against a national and local context where concern is growing about the rising number of cases. At the time of writing, we still have no confirmed cases of Covid 19 within our student or staff teams in any of our three secondary schools but I think we all expect that this is unlikely to remain the case over coming months and that, eventually, our schools may well have confirmed cases in significant numbers.
