MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL

It has been a very busy and productive term. The students, as always, have been fantastic and they have been supported by a committed, dedicated and hard working team of staff. I always feel very lucky and extremely privileged to be the Principal of such a happy and thriving school community.

I have given out many 'Principal's Star Badges' this term! These have been awarded for a wide range of activities, from setting up clubs in schools, to contributing to the wider community, to overcoming adversity.

The articles in this newsletter once again show the diversity of activity on offer at Settle College. It is lovely to read the many articles from students themselves about the activities and experiences they have been involved in. The last few weeks of term have really showcased the students' talents, with the Year 7 and 8 Carol Concert, the Christmas Concert and the GCSE Drama performances.

We are successful as a school due to the excellent relationships with parents/carers and families and we really do appreciate your support. We also appreciate the contribution of our Governors and the Parent Partnership Group, who provide both challenge and support and help us to continue to strive to be the best we can be in all that we do.

At this time of year, students are tired and I do hope they have a good rest over the Christmas holidays. For those students sitting mock exams after Christmas, once rested, they should also find the time for revision! GCSEpod is accessible at any time and this may be helpful in making revision that little bit more manageable! A reminder that the Library is open for two hours every Tuesday and Friday during term time, from 3.20pm-5.20pm, for students to study. These sessions will be supported by a member of the Senior Leadership Team.

As detailed to you earlier this term, we have been delighted to welcome Dr Hilary Moakes as a new Parent Governor on the Governing Body.

Finally, we say farewell to Mrs Thompson who will be leaving us on Friday. We wish her and her family every best wish for the future. Mrs Thompson will be replaced by Mrs Tarjanyi as Subject Leader of PE (see page 4). With all best wishes for a very Happy Christmas!

Ms Costello

Students return to school on Wednesday 4th January 2017. Tuesday 3rd January is a staff training day.

WELCOME TO MRS TARJANYI, SUBJECT LEADER PE (January 2017)

January is the start of a New Year and a fresh and exciting new start for myself as Subject Leader of PE at Settle College. I wanted to take this opportunity to introduce myself to everyone involved at Settle College.

I have been teaching for seven years and have worked my way up to Subject Leader of PE, which has always been my dream job and ambition.

I studied BSC (Hons) Sport and Exercise Science at Leeds Metropolitan University and, after graduating in 2008, I took up a one year teaching post at Oundle School in Peterborough. From there, I moved to the University of Bath to study for a Secondary PGCE in PE and then, in the summer of 2010, I gained my first teaching post at School in .

After working at as a Teacher of PE, Assistant Head of House, Duke of Edinburgh Co- ordinator and Ski Trip leader, I moved to Matthew Arnold School in Oxford to become Assistant Head of PE and Head of Girls' PE.

I have always been ambitious and jumped at the opportunity to work at Settle College when the Subject Leader of PE post was advertised. The chance to work in such a forward thinking, warm and ambitious school was a chance not to be missed.

I have a keen interest in a variety of different sports, with hockey being my main passion. I have played National League hockey for five seasons and have gained my Level 3 Coaching Award. I am also heavily involved within the England Hockey Board Coach Education programme and coach at Regional Level.

Alongside my passion for hockey, I am also running the London Marathon in April 2017 to raise money for the charity 'Missing People' for a close school friend who went missing in York last November. Wish me luck!!!!!

I look forward to working at Settle College with a fantastic Department/colleagues and enthusiastic students and hope I can make a real difference to every individual.

I aim to bring my energy, enthusiasm, passion and drive for PE to ensure that every student at Settle College can ‘be the best they can be.’

Mrs Tarjanyi Subject Leader PE

4 YOUNG RANGERS’ AWARD

We are delighted to report that a number of our students have been awarded The John Muir Award, through their membership of Young Rangers, supported by the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority.

The Award is an environmental award scheme focussed on wild places. It encourages awareness and responsibility for the natural environment in a spirit of fun, adventure and exploration and is open to everyone. It challenges each participant to develop an understanding of, and responsibility for, a chosen wild place or places. Award groups must be able to commit to spending the time needed to achieve the award, and to complete whatever task is chosen to share their experiences of the award.

The Award is designed around four challenges and participants spend at least four days (or the equivalent time) on these four challenges.

 Discovering a wild place;  Exploring a wild place;  Conserving a wild place;  Sharing experiences of the wild place.

Each year the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority supports a number of groups to achieve The John Muir Award at Discovery Level and, this year, they have supported the following students to achieve their awards:

Edward Bradley (Year 9) Elliot Belt (Year 9) Aidan Tomlinson (Year 9) William Monks (Year 9) Henry Brown (Year 9) Ethan Clarke (Year 10) Luke Harrison (Year 10)

Congratulations to you all.

William and Henry were also asked to speak at the annual Dales Volunteers’ meeting, held at on Sunday 6th November 2016.

Dales Volunteers are adult volunteers who work across the National Park on practical conservation projects, looking after visitors, ecological and historic surveys and leading visiting groups.

William and Henry spoke to about 150 volunteers and 15 members of staff; one of the reasons being to talk to the volunteers to encourage them to offer help with Young Ranger groups in the North of the National Park. We are reliably informed that this strategy has worked and the Young Rangers Officer now has enough adult support. Well done, William and Henry.

6 REMEMBRANCE

On Friday 11th November 2016, Simon Tarbox (Deputy Head Boy), Charlotte Green (Deputy Head Girl), Ewan Hudson (Year 11 student) and myself attended a Remembrance Service at Rathmell Primary School. Ewan played The Last Post on his trumpet, which added to the occasion being very moving and thought provoking.

On Sunday 13th November 2016, two members of the Sixth Form Committee, James Eather and Joanna Wilson, along with myself, attended the Remembrance Church Service at Settle Parish Church to represent Settle College. After the service, we proceeded down to the War Memorial to take part in the two minute silence. We also watched, and took part in, the laying of the poppy wreath.

Ms Costello Principal

REWARDS ASSEMBLIES At the end of each half term, students are invited to an Awards assembly. The assembly includes contributions from teachers who outline the achievements of students they feel deserve recognition. The assemblies also announce the Form winners in House Points and attendance for the half term. Throughout the year, sports awards will also be included in this assembly. At the end of the year, a House cup and sports cup will be presented to the winning Heads of House.

Mrs Power Rewards Co-ordinator

KIND DONATION BY MEMBER OF THE LOCAL COMMUNITY

Our thanks go to Mr & Mrs Portnell, who recently very kindly donated a number of binders and files for use by students within the school. These proved to be very popular and were snapped up quickly by students from different Year groups.

Ms Costello Principal CHARITY FUND RAISING LEEDS CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL

During the last year we have arranged for our used printer toners to be collected and recycled, with the proceeds being donated to charity. We are delighted to report that, so far this year, £181.73 has been raised for Leeds Children’s Hospital.

7 ‘MY FIRST TERM AT SETTLE COLLEGE’ YEAR 7 STUDENTS

‘When I first came to Settle College, I was worried, scared and butterflies in my tummy made me feel sick. That is normal though. It really is the opposite; if you behave well and don’t forget too much homework, it can be really fun!

My best work has been in Geography, when I got an ‘Exceeding’ for one of my PowerPoints. My favourite club would have to be Eco-Club and I love it so much because it encourages me to speak up for what I believe in. I have even taken up scuba-diving.

Settle College is great and it has probably doubled my confidence.’

Thomas Busfield

‘When I first came to Settle College, I was worried, excited, nervous and happy but now I realise that I did not need to be worried and nervous because every day brings excitement.

My best piece of work that I have done at Settle College, and the piece of work I am most proud of, is probably my History assessment on ‘Why did William win the Battle of Hastings?’

At Primary school, I always considered myself as the worst at sport, so I was very surprised to find out that I had made the school rugby team. I was also surprised that I was able to take part in rugby training, badminton, basketball and cricket. That is why I love being at Settle College.’

Tobias Bennett

‘Before I started Settle College, I was a bit worried about where to go for each lesson but I was really excited about making new friends.

My favourite subject is DT because you get to make things like clocks, you get to use some tools and you also get to do Textiles and Catering. Even though I was worried about getting lost, or not finding my lessons, I didn’t get lost and it was easy to find out where I was going.

I have done netball and rugby after school and I really enjoyed them. Settle College is a lot different to my Primary school as you have a different teacher for each subject.

One of my highlights of Settle College is making new friends. Also getting the bus, because I get to spend time with friends and also it is fun.’

Anna Sapsford

‘When I took my first step into Settle College, the first thoughts that flowed into my head were detention, no friends and anxiety. I took more steps and more feelings flowed into my head; anxiety, worriedness, tiredness, happiness, anger, excitement but, in my first lesson, they reduced down to two: happiness and excitement.

So far, my best pieces of work have been a health and safety poster for DT, a good soldering leaflet, also for DT, and a dance to ‘Thriller’ for PE. I haven’t taken part in many activities yet but I will be in the school Christmas Concerts and I am a Student Librarian. I have also been nominated for the Student of the Month Award.

The highlights of my year so far have been getting a ‘1’ for my attitude to learning in every lesson except History and Drama. All the fears I had before, like the teachers not liking me, getting lost, being late, etc, have disappeared into thin air.’

8 TECTONICS HAZARDS DAY - MANCHESTER

A-Level Geography students experienced a full day of lectures in Manchester on the 22nd November 2016. Speakers included Dr Martin Degg (Head of Department, Geography and International Development, University of Chester), Professor Fiona Tweed (Professor of Physical Geography, Staffordshire University) and the well known Professor Iain Stewart (Director of the Sustainable Earth Institute, Plymouth University).

The expert panel inspired students with the most contemporary research, leading to greater knowledge and understanding of case studies and work they have undertaken and are researching. It took us on a world tour from Iceland, Nepal, Japan, Indonesia, Haiti, South Professor Iain Stewart addressing America and Italy. An invaluable day for all involved students supporting exam technique and widening student knowledge.

UNITED KINGDOM MATHEMATICS TRUST SENIOR MATHS CHALLENGE 2016

On Tuesday 8th November 2016, the Year 12 A-Level Maths class took part in the extremely difficult Senior Mathematical Challenge. This consisted of a 90-minute test paper of challenging questions such as:

‘A cuboid has sides of length 22, 2 and 10. It is contained within a sphere of the smallest possible radius. What is the side length of the largest cube that will fit inside the same sphere?’

We are very proud of all the students who took part and would especially like to mention the following students who achieved their Bronze certificate in this prestigious and well known challenge:

Nathan Jeffs Thomas Squires James King Anna Booth Robert Capstick Kathryn Souter Robert Whorton

Nathan Jeffs was also awarded the ‘Best in School’ Certificate. Well done to all of you.

10 COFFEE AND CAKE EVENING—24TH NOVEMBER 2016 We would like to share with you a number of topics that were discussed with the parents who came along to our Coffee and Cake Evening in the Sixth Form Centre.

First of all, many thanks to the parents who were able to come and join us. It was great to have an informal discussion about our Sixth Form and discuss future opportunities. Some really interesting questions were asked and we would like to take this opportunity to inform all parents about the process of Post-16 and life after A-Levels. You asked Our response

About the process of The process begins after the summer examinations in June of Year 12. In students’ Personal Development lesson, we applications to university and begin to talk about life after Settle College and start to encourage each student to write their personal statement. the deadlines Students then start to research courses and Universities. We run two Higher Education trips in June: one is to the Higher Education Fair at Leeds Beckett University, where all University representatives are there to discuss the courses they offer. The second trip is to Lancaster University to look at the application process and the skills needed to be a successful university student. It is also a great chance to see a campus and the facilities on offer. We also hold an evening for parents run by Leanne Bates from Lancaster University who talks about the UCAS process and other issues such as finance. We then support students in their application process and encourage all applications to be sent to UCAS by the October half term of Year 13. The official deadline from UCAS tends to be mid-January but our experience shows that the sooner students submit an application, the sooner they get an offer and do not run the risk that a course becomes full. My son/daughter is in Year In the November of Year 11, we hold a Sixth Form Open Evening. Subject Leaders are available to discuss Post-16 offers. 10, what is the process of They will discuss the structure of the course and the opportunities that they can offer students. We also speak to all applying to the Sixth Form? parents about the Sixth Form and the process for applying. In December of Year 11, students will get the opportunity to trial up to 5 A-Level subjects during the school day to see which subjects they may like to study. It is after this time that we ask for pupils to submit an application to join the Sixth Form. The deadline is in December. What advice is there about We encourage pupils to speak to either Mr Whitaker or Mr Murphy in the Sixth Form or any teacher responsible for choosing A Levels? teaching an A-Level. We would offer the following general advice. If you have an idea about what you would like to do as a career, look at what qualifications you need. Do you need a degree and if so, what A-Levels must you study? Generally we say to choose A-Levels that you think you will be successful in and that you will enjoy.

What is the process for In Year 11, towards Christmas, you need to look carefully at the places where apprenticeships may be advertised. The applying for apprenticeships? main one is the local press. However the website http://www.notgoingtouni.co.uk/apprenticeships-223 is a good starting point. Craven District Council also hold an Apprentice Job Fair in March at the Council Offices. Mrs Lambert, Careers Manager, is also an excellent person to discuss options with and she can help with next steps too.

How do I decide on the right The only way is to do lots of research: www.ucas.com is the first point of call. Students need to apply for courses via this course at University? but it also helps students with course choice. Students want to know about the quality of the course too and websites such as: www.thecompleteuniversityguide.co.uk, http://www.theguardian.com/education/universityguide, https://unistats.direct.gov.uk/ are excellent starting points. However, the best advice is to go and see the University for themselves and attend any open days advertised.

What do UCAS points mean? UCAS points are a way for Universities to find out what students are capable of academically. By setting a minimum number of UCAS points for each course offered, Universities ensure that the students who study there have the abilities to do well in the course and complete it. An A* is worth 56 UCAS points, an A is worth 48 B is worth 40 and so on until an E which is worth 16. An institution may say you need AAB which means you need these grades or it may say 120 points which is BBB, or ABC. When is it best to take a gap Of course, the answer to when you should take a gap year is incredibly personal and the real question should be, "when is year? the best time for me to take a gap year?" Everyone is different, so you need to dig deep into what you know about yourself and think about how taking a gap year might affect you and your future. There are many positives and negatives and these should be investigated. We advise that an application for UCAS is made and deferred for a year while the gap year takes place. We also advise that the year is productive. For example Voluntary Service Overseas (VSO) is a fantastic opportunity. Is it O.K for students to attend Yes providing pupils let their Form Tutor know. Open Days?

Can students attend Open Some Universities hold events designed to get students thinking early about University. For example, Oxford and Days in Year 10? Cambridge hold a joint event at Haydock Park regarding the application process, but most events tend to be aimed at Year 12 students.

How can we as parents Encourage pupils to look at University entry requirements if they are thinking of a career that needs to follow a Degree support choices in Year 10? route. Come to the Open Evening in November of Year 11, but please feel free to contact either Mr Whitaker or Mr Murphy in College.

I am concerned about the There is plenty of advice and support online. The website https://www.gov.uk/student-finance is particularly useful. At financial cost of going to Settle College, in the summer term, we hold an evening for parents/guardians and a representative from Lancaster university. University will discuss this in more detail. Student Finance organisations also visit assemblies and Parents’ Evenings.

We hope you find the above information useful and that the information help you as parents to be involved in the next stage of your child’s life. Should you have any questions about any of the above please get in touch with either of us in school. Thank you in advance for your continued support.

11 SIXTH FORM CHARITY WEEK

As part of the Sixth Form Head Boy and Girl team, one of our many responsibilities is raising money for charity. Our Charity Week is a single week of events which runs extra to all our other charitable events taking place throughout the year.

This year our Charity Week took place during the week of the 17th October, with a bake sale on Thursday 20th October and a whole school non-uniform day on Friday 21st October. All the proceeds went to our four charities: Reuben’s Retreat, Toilet Twinning, Cancer Research and Yorkshire Air Ambulance.

Our bake sale proved a resounding success. We had an incredible variety of cakes donated by pupils, parents and staff that were popular with the whole school. The ‘Settle College’ cake (we named for its impressively iced school motto) was a big success in generating money for charity, with it being sold to the highest bidder. In total, we raised £150 from the bake sale, something we are very proud of.

Made by Harry Challenger’s (Year 7) mum

As a team, we wholeheartedly congratulate the many baking talents of Settle College and say a huge thank you to the effort and support put in by students and parents to contribute to the success of our bake sale. Without you it wouldn’t have been possible!

A non-uniform day is always popular with students, and ours was the first to take place this year. Students are always very good at remembering that, although the non-uniform day is for them, it is also a cause of raising money for charity. This year we raised a total of £488.16 from the non-uniform day which, as a team, we are also very proud of.

As a total from Charity Week, we have raised £638.16 for our charities which, we feel, reflects the efforts and support from everyone here at Settle College. We hope to continue our charity events success and to continue donating as much as we can to our charities.

12 SIXTH FORM DRIVE AWARE EVENT

In the past, when someone mentioned a car accident, I always thought about it happening to someone else, someone I didn't know… not myself or my family. Since watching the Drive Aware assembly, my attitudes towards the topic have completely changed.

Through the talks we received and the videos we watched in this assembly, I have come to realise that anyone, at any time, could be affected by a car accident. At first, the thought is terrifying but, when you realise that you can do something about it, and you can prevent something dangerous from happening to yourself and others, it is certainly reassuring.

One of the videos that we were shown stated that almost 1.3 million people die in road traffic accidents every year. What was terrifying to me was finding out that more than half of these deaths occur among young adults aged 15-44 and, therefore, because of this, road crashes are the leading cause of death among young people. As a young person, the concept of driving has always being exciting to me and, as I get near to turning 17, the fact that I could be driving in less than six months is becoming more realistic. These statistics have certainly made me wary, although they have also encouraged me to try and be the best driver I can.

The assembly, however, was not only full of statistics, as these I have heard before. What really stuck with me, and many of my peers after leaving the assembly, were the stories told by the relatives of victims whose lives had sadly being taken because of a road traffic accident. It became clear that even taking your eyes off the road for a minute to check your phone can lead to carnage; the worst thing being that the series of events cannot be undone. I think a lot of peoples’ attitudes to the seriousness of being on the roads changed because of the assembly and not only made them cautious about their own actions but were also encouraged to spread the word to family and friends, beyond the assembly hall.

Jasmine Cannon Year 12 student

The Drive Aware assembly was delivered to us to deter future drivers from poor judgement while driving and to prevent avoidable accidents. Professionals with experience of responding to accidents shared stories of accidents caused by these kinds of mistakes, both from their careers and personal lives. Many Government adverts were shown to us to showcase the damage and harm caused by very small errors of judgement.

The videos showed, using actors, shocking and graphic images to get their point across more efficiently. Gruesome injuries and loud collisions were common in these videos, the accidents being caused by drinking, drugs, using a mobile phone or going too fast. This, coupled with the stories of the professionals, put into perspective the possibly life shattering consequences of some simple mistakes.

A video that got its message across particularly well was one that featured the father of a young victim of a car accident recounting the events of his daughter’s death. The shock of this being revealed at the end of the video really made you think of the potential effects of a bad decision on yourself and others.

Joseph Burke Year 12 student

13 MEDIA AND THE BBC Guest speaker, Mr Geoff Woolf, from the BBC, visited the Sixth Form Media students on Tuesday 1st November 2016 to talk about his work as a Lead Project Manager, delivering technology projects across all the English regions. Mr Woolf explained how he has developed an innovative approach to updating equipment systems used across the BBC’s thirty-nine local radio stations. The Virtual Local Radio (ViLoR) project allows stations to share infrastructure and equipment, which can be updated with the latest software from a central data centre rather than having to physically visit each of the stations.

As part of their Creative Media course, students are expected to work within the constraints of a budget. They learnt, from discussion, how the BBC is funded, with TV licence fees (40p per day) bringing in £3.7bn annually. £1bn is also raised from selling BBC Worldwide programmes and services internationally. This revenue allows the BBC to pay for radio, TV and online programmes and services.

Mr Woolf also shared with the students his experience of working at the famous Abbey Road Studios in London (the first purpose-built recording studio in the world), where many celebrated artists have recorded, such as The Beatles, Adele and Robbie Williams.

The final part of the presentation provided information for students about broadcasting, media trainee schemes and apprenticeship programmes in journalism, production and technology. They were also advised that further information could be found on the BBC careers websites, which provides students with help to improve skills such as CV writing, interviews and professional networking.

Please see link: http://www.bbc.co.uk/careers/trainee-schemes-and-apprenticeships

Our thanks to Mr Woolf for an outstanding presentation and to our Exams Officer, Mrs Moorhouse, for providing the link to him.

14 PROPOSED TRIP TO HONDURAS Operation Wallacea is an organisation devoted to conservation management in remote locations across the world. It is a network of academics, ecologists and scientists who work together with volunteers from schools and Sixth Forms to collect data for a range of projects, some of which will be published in peer review journals.

Settle College plans to run an expedition to Honduras to work with these scientists in Summer 2018, thus meaning our students will have the opportunity for theory to come to life and to witness the scientific method first hand.

The forests of Central America are some of the most species diverse forests in the world because it is a meeting point for species from North and South America, which have evolved separately. For their first week in Honduras, students will be based in the cloud forests of the Cusuco National Park helping to survey one of the world’s rarest and most endangered forest types. This data will be used to produce a report which will go to the Honduras Forestry Department, to enable them to use the data to sell Carbon Natural Forest Credits which will help to protect the forest and the irreplaceable biodiversity within it. During the week, students will complete jungle survival skills training, monitor forest structures and work with an international team of biodiversity scientists on projects, including invertebrate sampling, using mist nets and point counting for birds, live trapping of small mammals and spotlighting for amphibians and reptiles. They will also complete a course on Neotropical Forest Ecology and have an opportunity to learn how to access the canopy with a half-day training course.

During the second week, students will be based on either Roatan or Utila (islands on the Bay Island chain) and can learn to scuba dive to PADI Open Water level. They will learn about Caribbean reef ecology and the importance of the marine environment, survey techniques and basic fish/invertebrate identification. The main issues facing biodiversity in these reefs are declining numbers of sea urchins, the spreading of lion fish (which is an invasive species) and overfishing by local communities.

Overall, the expedition will be a fantastic opportunity for students to witness conservation work first hand, step out of their comfort zone, challenge themselves and learn new skills. The trip will also give students a taste of a culture different to our own.

Accommodation for the trip will be tents, hammocks (when in the forest) and beach huts in the final week. At times, students will have to wash themselves in rivers and use local transport, but all these quirks and challenges are what make this experience the trip of a lifetime. The trip is open to Year 12 students and Year 11 student planning to stay on at Settle College in the Sixth Form. Places will be reserved on a first come, first served basis.

Finally, it is also possible to use the expedition to gain extra UCAS points by completing an Extended Project Qualification (EPQ), and the expedition covers key aspects of Biology, Geography and Science syllabuses. In addition, students will automatically qualify, by completing the expedition, for a University Award that can be included on their UCAS forms to really help separate their applications from the crowd!

15 THE MUSIC DEPARTMENT

The Music Department has been very busy this half term preparing for Christmas services and concerts. Our annual Carol Concert took place on Thursday 8th December 2016 at St Alkeda's Church at 1.30pm. All of Year 7 and 8 students attended and there were many musical items including solos, duets and our Year 7 and 8 singing group. Students also performed a reading. The students all joined together in carols and songs to celebrate the run up to Christmas time.

On Tuesday 13th December 2016, Settle College saw its first Joshua Harland "Christmas at Settle College" concert in the school hall. Tickets for this event were in high demand and were snapped up very quickly! The concert saw performances from the Year 7 and 8 singing group, Year 10 and 11 vocal harmony group, the newly formed flute quintet, accordion groups and a number of bands and duets. Even the staff produced their own item for the show!

Some of our musicians recently represented the school at the North Central area accordion championships at Beckfoot School, Bingley on Saturday 26th November 2016. The competition was hosted by Craven Accordion Orchestra and approximately 280 people entered, with students from Settle College being placed very highly. We were represented by Louisa Bullock, Mollie Howarth, Jessica Baines Louisa Bullock, Mollie and Honey Kaup-Samuels. All the girls achieved first or second Howarth and Honey place in a number of classes. Well done to you all. Kaup-Samuels

Ms Shaw Teacher of Music BUDDIES ARE THE BEST

Tuesday morning sees Settle College Library become a hive of industry, as almost 30 students sit down together to work in our paired reading scheme. Volunteers from the Sixth Form have matched up with Year 7 students to read every week as part of our focus on literacy skills. And they are having a great time.

It is proving to be an outstandingly valuable and constructive partnership. The Year 7 students are finding increased confidence and friendships alongside their improving reading ability and it’s not just the Year 7 students who are gaining, as the Sixth Formers don’t miss out. The increased responsibility and confidence is a significant experience to include on their references for when they leave us, plus a well-deserved sense of personal achievement.

We are incredibly grateful to all the students who are giving up their mornings for this scheme, as it is exceptionally worthwhile. Last year’s students made up to two Levels of Progress in their reading ability after taking part in the Reading Buddies Scheme – an incredible achievement.

Well done to everyone who is involved this year. We are really pleased to have your support; it is lovely to see all partners working so diligently and you are a great credit to the school.

16 E-SAFETY AMBASSADORS

Young people can play a powerful role in educating their peers, by providing relatable and up to date advice. They can also shape a school or organisation’s ethos by acting as role models. We can capitalise on young people’s technical expertise and understanding of young people’s digital lives to educate parents, carers and staff.

To help schools and other groups harness the power of youth voice and make e-safety learning fun and effective, Childnet has created a new youth leadership programme, which Settle College has joined!

The Childnet Digital Leaders Programme offers young people access to an exciting online community, where they will access training and support from Childnet’s expert team, record achievements and progress, and collaborate and share inspiration with young Digital Leaders across the UK.

Supported by Facebook and the European Union, the programme gives young people opportunities to engage with leading technology companies and have a say in creating a better internet for the future.

We are excited that this programme will build on Childnet’s work, placing young people at the centre of creating a kinder and better internet, and we look forward to developing inspiring, creative activities and resources to help change our online communities for the better.

The programme is open to all Year 7 and 8 students interested in getting involved in this exciting programme, We have just had our first two sessions; however it is not too late to join in! If you are interested, please see Mrs Partridge.

WORKING SCIENTIFICALLY

A-Level Science at Settle College gives students a strong foundation in practical and analytical skills that are useful for further study and employment. As part of the new A-Levels, students are completing a practical endorsement. The aim of this endorsement is to teach students the practical skills they will need if they move on to study any Science based subject at University. These skills include following written procedures, applying investigative approaches, working safely, making records and researching from academic journals and websites.

Many of our former students have gone on to have extremely successful careers in Science, including doctors, conservationists and materials scientists.

Below are some of their comments:

“As a first year Chemical Engineering student, I have found that all the skills I gained from my Science A-Levels are proving to be very useful. Science A-Levels provide skills which open the doors for many opportunities in future life. Plus, all the teachers are willing to help and give personal assistance which I found to be very effective.”

Jack Brennand

“Completing A-Level Biology and Chemistry at Settle College allowed me to gain invaluable scientific skills that I have been able to apply to my degree in Biological Sciences at the University of Leeds. Through completing A-Levels at Settle College, I learnt how to work independently and meet deadlines which was of huge value when I began studying for my degree. It also taught me how to write a lab report; therefore, when I first began my studies, I had already learnt a skill that many other students hadn't.”

Jade Rayner

"Doing A-Levels in Chemistry, Biology and Maths at Settle College gave me the confidence to take full advantage of the opportunities available at the University of Bristol. The Chemistry practical lessons and coursework prepared me for the variety of lab work in my Pharmacology degree."

ROTARY CATERING COMPETITION

Settle College’s talented Year 11 Catering student, Rebecca Hulse, is to represent Craven after winning first

place in the first round of a national cookery competition.

The first stage of the Rotary Young Chef Competition 2016 took place at on Thursday 11th November 2016. Ms Mason, Catering teacher at Settle College said, ‘As usual the standard was very high and students were judged on a range of criteria from the actual food itself, complexity and final taste, presentation, hygiene and time planning. Rebecca blew us away with her culinary creations, the brief of which was to design and make a healthy two course meal in 1½ hours, with a budget of

£10.00.’

Rebecca’s winning menu was Pan Fried Sea Bass with a Potato and Leek Rosti, Courgette and Carrot Vegetable Nest, served with a basil and yogurt dressing followed by Fruit Tartlet with a lemon curd filling and raspberry coulis.

The food was absolutely exquisite and so beautifully and elegantly presented. We are extremely proud of Rebecca’s achievement and are thrilled to be able support her through to the next stage of the competition. Our thanks go to Keelham Farm Shop, in Skipton, for sponsoring the £10.00 budget.

Rebecca will now go on to the District Finals, which will be held at Betty’s Cookery School, Harrogate, in January next year.

Mrs Lodge Teacher of Catering

Rebecca’s comments: ‘I practiced a lot at home to prepare for the competition and had many discussions with Mrs Lodge, which I found really helpful in agreeing my final dishes, completing my time plan and costings, along with my final choice of table decoration.

On the day I was really nervous but, once I had completed my brief health and safety lesson, I started to relax and I really enjoyed making my food. I was amazed when they announced that I was the winner and I am looking forward to representing Craven in the next round, where I will have to produce a 3 course meal for a budget of £15.00.’

21 EUROPEAN RESTART A HEART DAY - 18TH OCTOBER 2016

On Tuesday 18th October 2016, Secondary schools, with help from Yorkshire Ambulance Service, St John’s Ambulance, British Heart Foundation, and the Resuscitation Council (UK) helped train more than 20,000 students in CPR. Settle College was proud to be involved in this superb occasion.

One hundred and seventy eight of our Year 11, Year 12 and Year 13 students took part throughout the day, learning basic techniques to help someone in cardiac arrest until the Emergency Services arrive on scene.

Seven brilliant volunteers came to Settle College to help facilitate this training; all gave up their own time (and valuable days off!) to come along.

All students who took part received a goody bag and certificate supplied by the British Heart Foundation and the Yorkshire Ambulance Service.

We will be signing up for this fantastic opportunity again in 2017.

22 YOUTH ENVIRONMENT SUMMIT - MALHAM TARN FIELD CENTRE 7TH-9TH OCTOBER 2016

Four Settle College students attended the Annual Eco-Summit held by the Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust as part of the Green Futures project.

Thomas Busfield (Year 7), Lucy Depledge (Year 11), Amelia Fawcett (Year 11) and Joanna Wilson (Year 13) were true ambassadors of the Settle College values, demonstrating thoughtfulness at all times, making positive contributions and showing an inclusive and friendly attitude towards everyone they interacted with.

The event took place over the weekend of the 7th-9th October 2016 and it involved a variety of interactive outdoor activities and small projects aimed at increasing the environmental awareness and the enthusiasm for the outdoors in the young participants. Den building, eco-orienteering, bat detecting, learning how to use a whacker plate to improve footpaths, or just learning how to build bird boxes, were a few of the many projects the young people took part in over the weekend. The group also discussed and developed solutions to reduce waste and encourage people to reuse and recycle more and learnt how to measure and reduce their own carbon footprint.

Overall, our students had a wonderful time and returned full of praise for how well the event was organised. They also brought back with them the precious fervour and inspiration that we could build a greener and more sustainable environment within our own school as well.

23 A JOURNEY THROUGH TIME …...

Nowadays we take the safety, availability and efficacy of medical care for granted. On 11th November 2016, Year 9 students took a journey through time to discover what the living conditions were like in Victorian Leeds. Each student selected a character and followed their life to discover their fate - was their illness serious and did they have enough money to have an effective treatment?

As the students moved through the decades, they gained more knowledge about the causes of illness; pathogens such as bacteria, fungus and viruses. Knowledge of the causes led to more hygienic conditions, such as the use of carbolic acid to clean their bodies, houses and clothes. The students took part in a session about the realities of early surgery, and then got to see the tools of the trade.

24 YEAR 8 VISIT TO LIVERPOOL

On Thursday 24th November 2016, Year 8 students visited the International Slavery Museum and the World Museum in Liverpool. Below are the thoughts of some of the students who took part in this visit:

‘It was a very exciting day at the Slavery Museum. We were taken on a journey into the experience of slavery. There were lots of artefacts related to slavery, including life in West Africa before slavery, as well as clips of film and music, and a model of a slave plantation. We completed a task sheet which gave us the opportunity to go round the exhibition and find out for ourselves. It had a big impact on our learning. We found out a lot of information which is helping us with our current work in History. We learnt about life before, during and after slavery, the slave trade and much more. We would definitely go again if we had the chance!’

‘At the World Museum, we looked at African masks and chose two to draw. There was a wide variety of masks from the less intricate to the festival masks, which had hair and were painted in bright, earthy colours. We’ll be using this work in Art later in the year. We also looked at things like elephant teeth and skulls. These were cool because you could see the natural patterns on them. There weren’t just masks, there were African totem poles too, from little one-layered ones to towering 5-layered ones that looked like they had taken years to create. We really enjoyed the visit.’

Rebecca Ashcroft, Ellis Child and William Maudsley Year 8 students

25 STUDENT LIBRARIANS

As a Student Librarian, I spend a lot of time in the Library. Along with others, I put away books that have been returned and try to keep the area tidy. It’s all worthwhile, but I felt that it would be good to have some variety and to broaden the appeal of the Library.

In the run up to Christmas, I organised a Craft Club in the Library. It has been popular, especially with Key Stage 3 students. We have been book folding to make Christmas Trees from old books, which would otherwise have been skipped. We have also been making the Periodic Table in baubles for Mr Shepherd. The trees have been decorated and used to give the Library some Christmas cheer.

After Christmas, the Club will continue with a variety of topics and projects. We are going to write a school poetry book and there will be a competition for entries in four categories: Being a Teen, My Teachers, Lessons and Hobbies. There will be a Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4 winner for each category: more details in the New Year. We are going to write a Happiness Manifesto too. There will be more crafting and more book folding too. Please don't throw away any books until you’ve seen what we have been up to.

Rosie Pettifer Year 9 student

Each month, we are changing the display in the Library to a different theme. Previously, we have had a display on anti-bullying and, in December, our theme is ‘Christmas time’ and how people celebrate Christmas.

In January, we will be looking at different faiths, cultures and religions of different people.

26 YEAR 5 CATERING AFTERNOON QUOTES

We were delighted to welcome Year 5 pupils from Bentham Community Primary School to a catering afternoon recently. From the selection of quotes below, the children certainly seemed to have enjoyed their visit to the College.

"I really liked it when we made the muffins, it was really fun and messy."

Lucy

"I enjoyed making the muffins at Settle College because we got to do them on our own, not in groups. I also enjoyed it because I got a taste of what it will be like in High School."

Tom M

"I thought it was one of the best school trips because I have never baked muffins and it was a good opportunity. I liked how we got to wash up."

Freya

"I thought it was very fun and nice that they're teaching kids to bake for later in life and it was the best trip ever."

Amber

"I really liked the trip especially when we were doing the washing up, we were like elves dancing to the music."

27 PARENT/TEACHER ASSOCIATION

As we approach Christmas, we are operating on a much-reduced Committee (at meetings only!) All parents are automatically members, and free to decide whether to support PTA events by spending money, helping out by donating raffle prizes and baking, or coming along to our meetings and helping to plan events. Thank you to everyone who has already contributed. You are warmly invited to come along to one of our meetings to help us plan more events.

The meetings next year will be held in the Conference Room at Settle College and the dates and times are as follows:

Wednesday 18th January 2017, 6.30pm Wednesday 8th March 2017, 6.30pm Wednesday 10th May 2017, 6.30pm Wednesday 14th June 2017, 6.30pm

If you would like more information, please get in touch with me, the PTA Secretary, on the following email address: [email protected]

We were unable to bring our plans for an Auction of Promises to fruition due to lack of Committee members, but we were still able to assist with refreshments at the Christmas Concert on Tuesday 13th December (which was sold out, I am reliably informed!) and will be organising the customary hamper raffle and refreshments at the annual College production (Oliver!) in the week commencing Monday 13th February 2017.

It would be lovely to plan more events over the school year so, if you have an idea for a fundraising event, please do let us know and we will try and make it happen!

Have a wonderful Christmas & New Year.

28 YEAR 7 AND YEAR 8 RUGBY - THE THIRD ROUND AT SETTLE COLLEGE Year 8

Currently positioned at the top of the table, the Year 8 rugby team knew that only victories in their games would be acceptable. Excellent forward play from Will Clay, Matthew Garth, Harry Mathew and Angus Ogden allowed the backs to use their speed and brilliant lines of attacking. Strong running from Harris Dinsdale, Ollie Drew and Ben Coultherd made the points add up throughout the games. The last match played against Ermysted was a credit to both teams and to the game of rugby. All boys from both teams put in an excellent performance and the quality of the game was exceptional. It was that good the game finished 0-0.

Settle College W 20 - 0 Upper Wharfedale School

Settle College W 25 - 0 The Skipton

Settle College W 10 - 0 Settle College D 0 – 0 Ermysted’s School

Year 7

The Year 7 team had a mountain to climb. Half of the team were also involved in a football match before the tournament had started. The football had to be played as regulated by the FA and the rugby tournament was on the same day (maybe one day the RFU and FA will work together!!)

However, the Year 7 students gave it their best shot. Our boys had fantastic tempo in the first 5 minutes of all of their games. Excellent runs from Freddie Fairweather-Smith, Lee Ford and Jack Wright kept Settle College always in touching distance of the other teams (only if the games were 5 minutes long!) Tired legs started to come into play after 5 minutes and the other teams were able to capitalise on this. Crunching tackles from Elliot Marklew and Callum Mathew were also spectacular and helped the score lines to be made respectable.

YEAR 11 YORKSHIRE CUP – RUGBY

The Year 11 team travelled 2 hours and 40 minutes to play Wath School in the second round of the Yorkshire Cup. It took 50 minutes on the pitch for the lads to wake up and start playing rugby. By this time, the score line was 22-0 to Wath School. Weak tackling in the midfield allowed their very fast centres to run past and keep scoring tries. ‘Piggy’ was the key! Strong running and hard heads from the forward, especially Jack Pinder and James Bradley started to make an impact around the rucks. From this, the backs had excellent fast balls, which allowed Omari Kaup-Samuels, Henry Macnab and Freddie Howarth to utilise them. Two excellent team tries made the score line 22-10.

For the last 15 minutes of the game, the lads had all the possession but could not finish off their chances. The Captain and coach from Wath School stated at the end of the game, ‘…. if your boys had started like that, we would have had no chance!’ With disappointment, the boys started the 2 hours and 40 minutes journey back to school.

30 GIRLS’ RUGBY AT SETTLE COLLEGE

Robbie Hill, an RFU Coach, has been coming into school this term to deliver some additional training sessions to our girls. This is part of an initiative to increase girls’ participation within rugby. The Year 7 girls have really enjoyed taking part in these sessions during their PE lesson time.

Robbie has also been running sessions at lunchtime for the girls to take part in. They have been practising passing and formation skills, which will aid their game play.

Mrs Thompson Subject Leader PE

SIXTH FORM SPORTS STUDIES

As part of the CTEC qualification at Sixth Form, the Year 12 and 13 students have been coaching students from Years 7–10. This forms part of their assessment so they need to ensure they plan, prepare and execute the coaching to an outstanding standard.

All the students who have done their coaching so far have shown professional attributes and should be very proud of their selves.

Well done everyone!!

31 GIRLS’ U15 WHITE ROSE RUGBY UNION TOURNAMENT TUESDAY 11TH OCTOBER 2016

Well done to the Girls’ U15 Rugby Union team which was unbeaten in their White Rose Competition at Skipton Rugby Club. It was an outstanding performance by all the girls in the squad. Captain, Emily Carpenter, led by example, skipping through her opponent’s defence in every game. The squad played 4 games and won 4, beating Upper Wharfedale, The Skipton Academy, Oakbank School and South Craven School.

A special thank you to the coaches who came and supported the squad: Francesca Redford, Ellie Jones, Elisha Snowden-Evans, Olivia Schofield, Mollie Stelfox, Rosa Bryant and Gemma Darwin. Your knowledge and experience was valuable within the tournament for both the junior and senior squads.

32 NETBALL

Well done to the Year 8 and 9 team which played against Upper Wharfedale School.

Year 9

The Year 9 score did not reflect the game played and, although the girls lost 15-6, they played a very nice level of netball.

The players have a lot to take away from the game so they can improve for the netball tour in March. Player’s Player of the Match went to Molly Taylor and Abbie Richards. The Teacher’s Player of the Match went to Captain, Molly Taylor.

Well done girls, I can’t wait for the next game.

Year 8

Well done to the Year 8 girls who fought well in their netball game. Although they lost 5-1, the level of netball did not reflect the outcome and the Settle team dominated the play.

The Payers’ Player of the Match was Harriet Pickup and the Teachers’ Player of the Match was Abi White.

33 ENGLISH SCHOOLS’ CROSS COUNTRY CHAMPIONSHIPS 2016 WEDNESDAY 16TH NOVEMBER AT KING JAMES, KNARESBOROUGH

Eight Settle College students represented the school at the qualifying rounds of the English Schools’ Cross Country Championships on Wednesday 16th November 2016. The weather was wet, windy and cold but that didn’t faze our students. Their grit, determination and will to succeed paid off and all students should be extremely proud of their efforts and results.

Beth Roberts (Year 7) had a fantastic run and won her race! An amazing achievement. She was presented her medal by the Rio Olympic 1500m finalist Laura Weightman.

Beth on the podium

Students competing were: Tilly McKibben (Year 7), Grace Bristow (Year 7), Beth Roberts (Year 7), Emily Carpenter (Year 10), Rhys Watmough (Year 9), Ryan Watmough (Year 11), Matthew Coleman (Year 9)and Benjamin Clark (Year 7).
