The award was the result of a bid made to support our on-going commitment to make our school community as clean as we can. Commented Miss Louden: 'The Student Voice group have worked hard to make this award a reality and deserve great credit. This funding will now allow the school to invest in new recycling bins and other initiatives to make our school a cleaner, greener environment for us all'. A2 Philosophy As part of the A2 Philosophy unit on the Problem of Evil, two students were selected to participate in the Lessons from Auschwitz Project, run by the Holocaust Educational Trust. In preparation for a visit to Auschwitz Concentration Camp, two year 13 students attended a seminar in Manchester in November. The seminar included an emotional talk given by a Holocaust survivor 'Ziggi', who was taken to Auschwitz as a child. Beth and Libby found the experience both heart rendering and uplifting. Following on from their visit the students will deliver an assembly in January to commemorate Holocaust Remembrance Day. Mrs J Penney www.helsbyhigh.org.uk 5 Helsby High School Autumn Newsletter Star of the Week is Launched. In November, Star of the Week was launched! The purpose of this award is to recognise and celebrate the achievement of one student each week from Year 7 to Year 11. This recognition could be for various reasons, including commitment to extra curricular activities, work in the community or being an exemplary role model. A survey was conducted with over one hundred students across all year groups the results of which helped to structure the system that now underpins Star of the Week. Year Leaders and Form Tutors discuss student nominations every Friday. The Form Tutor presents the Star of the Week with their gold star badge in form time. Some Year Leaders may recognise this award in assembly time if the student is comfortable with this. The student can then wear, with pride, the gold star badge on their blazer for the rest of the academic year. All members of the school community will be able to recognise this achievement! Mr Dowler has a vital part to play in the celebration of this award. He will write home to the Star of the Week congratulating them. In addition, outside his office, in the main office area of the school is a display board which lists the names and form classes of all Students of the Week so that visitors to the school can also share in their achievement. www.helsbyhigh.org.uk 6 Helsby High School Autumn Newsletter Helsby High School Welcomes Year 6 Parents and Students On Thursday 25th September 2014 Helsby High School opened its doors to over 250 families who visited the school during its Open Evening.

  • Nearly 1 Year on for Our Engineering Apprentices
    August 2016 Nearly 1 year on for our Engineering Apprentices In September 2015, Heat Trace employed two Engineering Apprentices, George Warner and Lewis Houghton. Now, one year into their Apprenticeship, they have both had a diverse experience within Heat Trace’s Engineering Departments. We received over 65 applications from across the North West for the roles. HR Manager, Nicola Scappaticci-Fletcher and Managing Director, Dan Berrisford, selected 16 candidates to attend an assessment day at the Helsby factory. Both Apprentices attended the assessment day that consisted of a presentation from Dan, a group exercise, a question and answer session and an interview. Both George and Lewis joined Heat Trace after completing their GCSE’s. George completed his GCSE’s at Neston High School and Lewis completed his GCSE’s at Helsby High School. Currently, George and Lewis go to Mid Cheshire College, studying a 3 year, Level 3 Engineering Course on a day release basis and work at our Helsby factory. George’s Apprenticeship Experience: “I’ve always been interested in Engineering, throughout high school in my Design Technology lessons from year 7 – 9. I am always enthusiastic and want to improve my Engineering knowledge. When it came to picking my options on what subjects to take for my GCSE’s, I was delighted to see that my school (Neston High School) offered a Level 1 and Level 2 BTEC Diploma in Engineering, it was inevitable that I would choose this course. Throughout the course I tried my hardest and developed a great relationship with the staff and my teachers in the Engineering Department.

This project is part of a wider pan Cheshire audit of youth arts including; a separate document also for East Cheshire, a sub-regional and county wide audit in Cheshire as well as a report analysis recommendations for youth arts for the future. This also precedes the new structure of Cheshire’s two county unitary authorities following LGR into East and West Cheshire and Chester, which will come into being in April 2009 An audit of this kind will never be fully accurate, comprehensive and up-to-date. Some data will be out-of-date or incorrect as soon as it’s printed or written, and we apologise for any errors or omissions. The youth arts audit aims to produce a snapshot of the activity that takes place in West Cheshire provided by the many arts, culture and youth organisations based in the county in the spring and summer of 2008– we hope it is a fair and balanced picture, giving a reasonable impression of the scale and scope of youth arts activities, organisations and opportunities – but it is not entirely exhaustive and does not claim to be.
