The Year 11 have been working very hard completing English GCSE Speaking and Listening assessments for their final GCSE grades. In addition, we have had Mock exams in many subjects so that students are getting used to learning for a test situation. I am pleased to report that the Year 11s were exemplary both in terms of preparation for the Mocks as well as taking them extremely seriously. This all bodes very well for the future. 24 Hours of Non-Stop Music And of course we’ve just had 24 hours of non stop music on the campus with some sensational performances from all of our talented performers. We even threw open our doors and had some great entertainment provided from some local primary schools after school before our main event in the evening which featured the awesome “Haunt The Woods” a four piece folk rock band from Saltash, “Broken Down” featuring Mr Floyd, and “Blank Panda” starring our very own guitar and brass teacher Darren Roberts, not to mention over 70 performers from all years and MBA live, which broadcast live on Penwith Radio 96.5 and 97.2 FM throughout the night.

    Just a Balloon Report Jan 2017

    Just a Balloon BALLOON DEBRIS ON CORNISH BEACHES Cornish Plastic Pollution Coalition | January 2017 BACKGROUND This report has been compiled by the Cornish Plastic Pollution Coalition (CPPC), a sub-group of the Your Shore Network (set up and supported by Cornwall Wildlife Trust). The aim of the evidence presented here is to assist Cornwall Council’s Environment Service with the pursuit of a Public Spaces Protection Order preventing Balloon and Chinese Lantern releases in the Duchy. METHODOLOGY During the time period July to December 2016, evidence relating to balloon debris found on Cornish beaches was collected by the CPPC. This evidence came directly to the CPPC from members (voluntary groups and individuals) who took part in beach-cleans or litter-picks, and was accepted in a variety of formats:- − Physical balloon debris (latex, mylar, cords & strings, plastic ends/sticks) − Photographs − Numerical data − E mails − Phone calls/text messages − Social media posts & direct messages Each piece of separate balloon debris was logged, but no ‘double-counting’ took place i.e. if a balloon was found still attached to its cord, or plastic end, it was recorded as a single piece of debris. PAGE 1 RESULTS During the six month reporting period balloon debris was found and recorded during beach cleans at 39 locations across Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly shown here:- Cornwall has an extensive network of volunteer beach cleaners and beach cleaning groups. Many of these are active on a weekly or even daily basis, and so some of the locations were cleaned on more than one occasion during the period, whilst others only once.
