  • Horizons Christmas 2010
    Scarborough College HORIZONS News from Scarborough College - Christmas Term 2010 Charity Fundraising Students in all age groups are encouraged to recognise their social responsibility and they are always keen to support charity fundraising. Several charities have benefitted this term including St Catherine’s Hospice, The Rotary Club, Help for Heroes, The British Legion and The Army Benevolent Fund. One of the campaigns which afforded great amusement was the Wear Pink Day for breast cancer research. I granted permission for the sixth form to wear fancy dress and wondered with some trepidation what the results might be. They were certainly spectacular, as I’m sure you’ll agree! Christmas will soon be upon us and it has been an eventful term. As you will see by this newsletter there is a lot to report and it is a reflection of the very hard work on the part of staff and pupils. For my own part, I have spent my first weeks at the College getting to know pupils, parents and staff. It has been enormously enjoyable and bodes very well for the future. The Nixon family is now happily ensconced and enjoying life by the seaside. Equally, I know Dan Davey and his family are well settled and together we have been made to feel welcome. The term began with Scarborough’s very first country show hosted by Scarborough College. This was a considerable undertaking and thanks are due to Mark and Tina Lewis, in particular, for the huge efforts they made to make the show a success. In a period of very uncertain weather, we were blessed with a fine day and it was a wonderful introduction to the College.
