  • Christmas Grapevine 2019
    BURY CHURCH OF ENGLAND HIGH SCHOOL DECEMBER 2019 FAREWELL It is with a great degree of sadness that I find myself writing this, my final article for the Grapevine newsletter. I will be stepping down as Headteacher of Bury CE High School after seven years, having joined the school in September 2012. It has been a privilege to lead this wonderful historic school. To have been part of a community that goes back to 1748 has been an enormous joy and I have loved it. The Governors will determine who the new Head will be to take on the reins and lead the school forward in the next stage of its development. I want to say thank you to all who have supported the school during my period as Headteacher. To parents and carers, I would say a big thank you for entrusting your children into our care. I have had the joy of seeing your children turn into amazing young men and women of whom we, and you, can be immensely proud. To those who have been friends of the school, I would thank you for your support over the years. Your help has enabled us to achieve vastly more than we could have ever imagined. Whether it has been clergy giving up their time to come in and lead services, or Alumni giving generously to support prizes and fund-raising activities, or the community coming together to remember those who are no longer with us at remembrance events, it has all added to the achievements of this school.

  • Pentecost Grapevine 2016
    Bury Church of England High School Sponsored by: BUTCHER & BARLOW, Solicitors & Notaries MAY 2016 HEADTEACHER’S REFLECTION At this time of year, we are all looking forward to the return of the sun as we move into the summer months. The school is settling down to the annual routine of GCSE examinations, having commissioned our Year 11 pupils at Bury Parish Church on Thursday 12 May. The day was a very enjoyable time with a „This is your life at Bury CE High School‟ assembly followed by a special commissioning meal in the suitably decorated School Hall. The pupils reflected on who was most likely to go on to various achievements such as Prime Minister before getting ready to move up to Bury Parish church for their commissioning service. The service was led by the Bury Parish Church School Chaplain, Rev Rhiannon Jones, and the Rector presided at communion. We welcomed many parents, grand-parents and friends of the school to join us at the service. After the event, I received a letter from one of the departing Year 11 pupils who wrote “After the excellent and emotional commissioning service yesterday, I felt obliged to write this letter of thanks to you and your incredible team of staff for the brilliant experience I have had at our exemplary school.” Quite a compliment from someone who knows what the school really has to offer. One of the things that is distinctive about Bury CE High School is its commitment to learning in a world context. We believe in the Global Dimension to learning and seek to set our learning in an international context.
