Helsby High Sports leaders refereed the matches. Kingsley CP won the competition. Mini Red Tennis is for players aged 8 and under. It is played on small court with short rackets and soft balls. It’s just like the real game and gives players opportunities to have long rallies and play dif- ferent types of shots. Our Y3/4 Mini Red Tennis Competition was held at Kingsley Tennis Club and Helsby Sports Leaders umpired the matches. Summer Newsletter 2017 Kwik Cricket aims to provide children of all levels of ability and experience with an oppor- tunity to regularly participate in a fun introduction to cricket and to encourage fair play by all.

The aim is to navigate between control points marked on an orienteering map; as a competitive sport the challenge is to complete the course in the quickest time choosing your own best route. The Orienteering Competition was held (on a rather wet day) on a course around Helsby High's school grounds organised by Deeside Orienteering Club and assisted by Helsby High Sports Leaders. Summer Newsletter 2017 Key Steps. There are 3 gymnastic areas, known as ‘disciplines' in Key Steps. The children competed in all 3 of these - floor, vault and body management.

  • 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.

  • Summary of Changes to Cheshire West and Chester School Admission Arrangements, Co- Ordinated Admissions Scheme for Admission in 2019-2020 Academic Year
    Summary of changes to Cheshire West and Chester school admission arrangements, co- ordinated admissions scheme for admission in 2019-2020 academic year. In accordance with the School Admissions Code, December 2014, admission authorities must consult on any changes to the admission arrangements and coordinated admission scheme. Cheshire West and Chester has consulted and determined the following changes for admission in the school year 2019-2020 and for subsequent years, subject to any review. Following a review of the Local Authority’s admission arrangements, the Local Authority has removed the requirement for parents and carers to accept or decline the school place offered following the National offer dates. It is not compulsory for admission authorities to have an offer response process within the arrangements. Parents and carers will still be able to respond to the offer to inform the authority whether or not they wish to take up the place offered, however places will not be removed if no response is received. The Local Authority has added Elton Primary School as a feeder for Helsby High School and included the Elton area within Helsby High School’s catchment area, as part of the Local Authority’s oversubscription criteria. Traditionally pupils from the Elton area apply for places at Helsby High School at secondary transfer. Pupils resident in the Elton area will remain in the catchment area for the University of Chester Church of England Academy, Ellesmere Port. Therefore, when applying for places, pupils in the Elton area will have high priority for both schools. .
