  • Harpur Trust 450 Anniversary Art Competition
    HARPUR TRUST 450TH ANNIVERSARY ART COMPETITION Schools Pack Children and schools in Bedford Borough are invited to take part in an exciting new art competition – The Harpur Trust 450th Anniversary Art Competition which will take place over the 2015/2016 academic year. We have developed this competition to celebrate our 450th anniversary. Throughout our history, we have been inspiring and supporting people within the Borough of Bedford, using the legacy of our founder Sir William Harpur to provide and promote education, to provide relief and help to those who are sick, in hardship or distress, and to provide recreational facilities with a social welfare purpose. Above all, we want everyone to have pride in their community and to be given opportunities to realise their own potential. As such, we are delighted to offer this competition which we hope will inspire local children to explore their artistic talent, and to encourage them to engage in a project which could result in their work being displayed to the general public in an exhibition at The Higgins Bedford in the Summer of 2016. ENTRANTS The competition is open to all 7-16 year olds who can enter individually or through their school. Schools can enter as many art works as they wish in one or more of the following categories: Category 1 Ages 7-11 Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 Category 2 Ages 11-14 Years 7, 8 and 9 Category 3 Ages 14-16 Years 10 and 11 Category 4 Age 16-18 Years 12 and 13 COMPETITION THEME The theme of the competition is ‘Recording Bedford’ and entrants are required to create an imaginative artwork which reflects an aspect of Bedford or Bedford life at some point during the Harpur Trust’s 450 year existence.

    Bedford Highlights Academy News and Views from Bedford Academy Autumn 2014 Year 7 HAVE ARRIVED! See page 7 Inside this issue: • Focus on Year 7 • Spotlight on Reading • Sky Sports Studio Trip Welcome A message from Bedford Academy Principal, Mrs Smith. The students have had another busy term taking part in a wide variety of events and activities which have enhanced their academic learning. September marked a major milestone in Bedford Academy’s history when we became a secondary school and welcomed Years 7 and 8 for the first time. As you will see from the numerous articles in this newsletter, they have settled in well and have enjoyed being involved in an array of diverse activities from zorbing and sailing, to researching the lives of local soldiers who served in WW1 and creating rainbows in test tubes during science! At the Academy we believe it is important that we offer students opportunities to widen their cultural experience and social skills. We also recognise the importance of ensuring our students are prepared for life after school and provide a high quality careers education and support service. You can read about the comprehensive extent of their work on pages 14-15. Reading, writing and numeracy skills lie at the heart of everything we do and are essential across all subjects at every level. At Bedford Academy we encourage reading at every opportunity and the “Spot Light on Reading” feature within this edition of the newsletter gives top tips in helping to develop an interest in reading. We all have our part to play in providing the very best education that we can for young people and I urge parents to encourage students to read at home.
