Last week saw an epic four concerts in two days as Y11 musicians performed their RSL Live Music Performance exams. Pupils have spent the past 18 months preparing for their 10-15 minute set, developing technical skills on their instrument and using music events on the calendar to improve their confidence and performance skills.
We are incredibly proud of our Y11 musicians – throughout this week they have demonstrated true musicianship and pushed themselves well beyond their comfort zones. The support they’ve given each other has been absolutely amazing and they’ve produced some very impressive performances. Well done!

A group of twenty-seven Year 9 students attended Sheffield University on Monday for a tour of the campus and a study skills session. They were accompanied by Student Ambassadors, who gave a true insight into University life during a tour of the campus buildings.
Time was allowed in the Student Union, where our students could find out about the extracurricular opportunities at Sheffield University as well as visit the many food outlets and soak up the atmosphere – leading to most of our students having a newfound desire to be an undergraduate in the future.
Let’s go back to a time where everyone’s heartthrob was Kevin Bacon, TVs were a piece of furniture in your living room and The Walkman was the coolest thing…ever.
Mobile phones were HUGE, hair was massive, and The A-Team were bigger than One Direction.
Let’s go back to a time when Donald Trump had his own hair, back to a time before iPads and back to a time where you WERE gonna call the Ghostbusters…and they were men.
Let’s go back….Back to the 80s!
