  • News Round up Issue Feb 14
    AMS, YOUR FUTURE E R DRE , OUR CHALLENG YOU News Round Up Issue Feb 14 www.blaconhighschool.net Balloon Release Parent and local resident, Lee Challinor, organised a balloon release from all the local schools to raise more money to pay for defibrillators in our local schools. Blacon High School hosted this event which was supported by SADS UK. The rain finally stopped long enough for pupils to release their balloons at around 2.15pm and the high winds did the rest! One lucky winner will receive a prize of £100 for the balloon name tag that travelled furthest. This one event has raised over £2,000 - now all the schools in Blacon will have defibrillators on site. Mr Challinor is continuing to raise more funds so that all key sites in Blacon have this potentially life-saving equipment. W hat makes me Smile? Blacon schools took part in a Short Story and Poetry Competition sponsored by Smile Fostering and Adoption Services at Cheshire West and Chester Council. Groups of students worked on their stories/poems over a number of weeks and the winning entries have been included in a glossy brochure produced by the council. The Awards Evening took place on Tuesday, 11 February in our school hall. The prize winners and their families were joined by the Lord Mayor of Chester, Cllr Jill Houlbrook, the Lady Mayoress, Mrs Rachel Walker and Cllr Reggie Jones with Luke Bailey (actor from Casualty and Waterloo Road) making the presentations. We are delighted that Bethany Irvine won the Key Stage 3 award with Jake Sconce as runner up.
